UT vs. Vandy 2009!

This last Saturday, me and Travis got to do something that we have never before gotten to do. We attended our very first University of Tennessee football game! Since the beginning of this season we have talked about how much we really wanted to go to a game. But it's so expensive that we never thought we would get to go. But the week before at Travis's drill weekend. He was handed 2 free tickets to attended the UT vs. Vanderbilt game. We jumped at the chance to go, after all it was FREE!!!! What more could you ask for? So we loaded up and headed downtown about 5 o'clock. I have to admit, I was worried about finding my way around down there, I don't visit that area very often! But I did really well no problems! We parked in one of the city's free parking garages, and walked to the KAT bus stop. They have special buses that pick you up at certain spots and take you as close to the stadium as possible. Which is like a quater mile away. It was so cool to get off the bus, and see nothing but orange!!! As we turned the corner, you see the stadium all bright and a sea of orange surrounding it! Finally, we had made it! We stayed till the middle of the 4th quarter, because we didn't want to miss the bus back, but we had so much fun. It really is an experience like no other! We are so happy that we actually got to go. I wish that every one got to go at least once. It is an amazing experience. The pictures are the best of all the ones that we took. There are alot more of the band the the guys playing, but 1 it's hard to get the players actually playing, and 2 the band was awesome!


Our first view of Neyland Stadium! So cool

A view of downtown Knoxville, from the walk ways up at Neyland Stadium. Even the lights look orange!

The UT players getting ready to run through the big T created by the band!

Power T- by the Pride of the Southland Band!

Stretching

Warming up
We didn't get any pics of them playing in the first half, so these are of the half time show. They did an awesome tribute to all the military. It was a very touching half time show!

The end of the Pledge of Allegiance. Beautiful! 4 of my favorite colors. Red, White, Blue, and UT orange!


UT

UT hudlle!

Look at all that orange! Doesn't show up great here, but there was alot of it.

Trying to get them on the T, but this as a close as it gets. We scored right after this!

Our only picture of us, we couldn't get as much of the field as we wanted, but it's still good. Although I think I look like I am 12 and really short! But I like this picture.

The sign outside the stadium as we were leaving.
This is the end of the video were we said the Pledge of Allegiance and they opened the flag. What you can't really see is the Bald Eagle that was flying around the Stadium as they opened the flag. It was a real touching moment. Makes me proud to be an American and a UT fan!
