Just reminiscing about great games/times at Neyland....I know mine pale in comparison to some of y'alls, but my favorite games I attended:
* 6 OT game against Arkansas, when they had the tall QB who went on to play WR in NFL...Jones I think and we could not tackle the f'ing guy. Had my 10 or 11 year old with me, he almost fell asleep the game went so long, as I kept explaining to him this is unheard of, never happened before! I think Witten caught the game winner in the 6th OT
* Game against Georgia when David Greene was their QB. Just the wife and I, in the south endzone on the bench seats in lower bowl. We were down late and we threw a screen pass to Stephens I think, who went 80 yards to the house and ran right at us. The place went nuts, we were jumping up and down on those bench seats and slipping off, people falling down all around us. We ended up losing, but that was electric. I also remember Georgia fans being cool AF and very nice people
* The game when Julio Jones just owned us....was a man amongst boys. I don't remember (again, beers on board) if this was same game when the whole stadium would chant ER-IC BER-RY and then clap 5 times but that was amazing to hear 100,000 people chanting a college kids name like that. Brought chills, my kids will never forget it
