Is there anything cuter than your entire family decked out in orange and white, headed to a Tennessee game? The answer is, well, probably not! We know it can be overwhelming tackling a college game day with littles in a place that seats over 100,000 people. That’s why we’ve put together a list of must-know information for taking your kids to a game at Neyland Stadium.
