Where do the players/coaches go for halftime? That Pilot Truck Stop behind the end zone I guess?

This is one of those games where you go to tailgate, and watch the game at the tailgate.

Pretty much. This game is more party/one-time spectacle than anything else. Fans know they won't have good sightlines but that's what the tailgates and megatron are for. Those at home will watch the game while those at the game will basically party through it.

I'm actually kind of jealous. The tailgate scene should be epic!

Not to mention the tv ratings will probably be a lot higher than if this game was at Neyland. I'll tune in for the spectacle and am excited for it.

Definitely. People are camping and the party starts off with a big tailgate concert on Friday. Kenny Chesney and some others are playing. I'm not a fan of country music but a lot of people are and they'll absolutely love that.

if Tennessee loses, they'll drop behind Danica Patrick in the points standings.

This is my question... Looks like the best option is doing it like we did at small Mississippi private schools during away games... Everybody just go take a knee behind the end zone while the 4 person dance team performs.

This douchebag is trying to get back on the Big Orange Bandwagon. Too fricking late imo. He cannot be pardoned for these sins

It's sad that Tennessee and VT have to rely on gimmicks like this.

Puts into perspective how huge racetracks/stadiums are for those that's never been to one.

A Georgia fan should know about gimmicks. Those power ranger jerseys y'all wore in the loss to Boise St were spot on
