KNOXvegas

3 hours and 33 minutes north of our humble apartment in Atlanta, nests a college town known for Peyton Manning and an abundance of Volunteer hours. This. Is. KNOXVEGAS!!!! I know Lucas won't agree, but Corvallis and Knoxville are very similar. Both fun college towns. Both with mediocre football teams. Both with strong Greek communities. Both wear orange on game days. I had a fun time meeting with the Phi Delta chapter and was welcomed with true Southern Hospitality (which in fact is a REAL thing my west coast homies!). A cool town that loves their Vols and prides themselves that they are in the SEC. 
Neyland Stadium is truly unbelievable and I was speechless at how loud it got during the game. What a battle vs. Georgia and a heartbreaking touchback left a lot of Vols sad to see their Smokey Grey Uniforms defeated in overtime. 105,000 people packed the stadium that still was a sea of orange! I couldn't believe that they still and have always played on real grass field, I feel most college teams play on Astro-Turf. Cool tailgate scene and a wonderful atmosphere that will be tough to top! #GoBeavs 

Seanye. Out. 

Song of the day: Rocky Top!
The calm before the storm!
Neyland Stadium

Packed!
