Posted on 11.02.08
Comments1. Tennessee clearly did not sell its allotment of tickets.
2. Too expensive. Gas prices have dipped since an election is upon us, but it still is expensive for a family to drive in from Charleston or Greenville.
3. Nobody likes attending a funeral, and that prospect existed for Phil Fulmer and his reign as coach at Tennessee.
4. It is much more comfortable watching the game at home on TV, and the beer is right there in the refrigerator.
5. Who wants to hear “Rocky Top” even one more time?
— Ron Morris
