It’s almost football time in Tennessee and you can feel the excitement growing across Rocky Top! There are so many wonderful family traditions surrounding the game, from the Vol Walk to running through the T, to singing “Rocky Top” at the top of your lungs. Whether you’ve been bleeding orange since birth or you’re new to the area, we put together a list of Tennessee game day traditions.
What’s football without tailgating and all the yummy food? Knoxville Moms can help you whip up party worthy fare or keep it simple (and easy!) with our DIY cupcakes for Vol fans. Are you really a Vol if you’re not wearing orange? Even tiny Vols can show their spirit thanks to this Knoxville Moms guide to find kids UT apparel.
Neyland Stadium has undergone even more renovations this year. The press box now reads “Home of the Vols,” which is a throwback to the Johnny Majors era. This update comes on the heels of a$42 million renovation project which included a jumbotron, upgraded seats, and stadium wide WIFI. In addition, the concourse in the south end zone was expanded and new restrooms were added under gate 10. There is still time to buy season and single game tickets. Both are available through Tennessee Athletics on Ticketmaster. If you can’t remember the details of the stadium bag policy, we’ve got you covered here. Wishing you and the Big Orange a great football season! Go Vols!
