If you don't expose students to the fun of live attendance while they are at school, it's hard to imagine them suddenly acquiring in interest in purchasing season tickets when they are in their 40s and have the disposable income and time to do so.
Oh they will come back. Every year when I visit Neyland I see people in their 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's in the stands filling up 100k+ stadium.
I spent the best time of my life (late teens~early 20's) in Knoxville and have fond memories from it. I imagine other UT grads feel the same way and that's why they come back. It just feels awesome to be back. Besides, there's not much to do when you're 40+ years old anyways.
Visiting Smoky mountains/Gatlinburg is a bonus.
