What put their tailgate over the top, though, was its tented bathroom. http://www.thestate.com/2008/04/25/385541/chasin-chesney-friday-more-from.html#RSS=life_and_style http://www.thestate.com/2008/04/25/385541/chasin-chesney-friday-more-from.html#RSS=life_and_style Thu, 24 Apr 2008 17:07 EDT Here are some things Kenny Chesney talked about that didn’t make it into my interview today.<p/><strong>On playing stadiums:</strong><p/>I don't think anyone thinks, “Yeah, football stadiums.” The first one came out of a reporter pretty early in my career, going “What else is there for you to accomplish?” Being flip, I went, “Well, I'd like to the play the University of Tennessee’s football stadium in Knoxville.” (He did so in 2003.)<p/>I was being funny, but it got me thinking. And the more I thought, the more I dreamed, and then we started working towards it. And it's funny, it's a different kind of show at first, but then once you get used to how big it is, it gets really intimate. You have all this extra room to move.<p/>Now, it's like 60,000 people feel like a normal-sized venue.
