Cheap hats and crap like that at gas stations really are a decent barometer for how a team is doing.

Back in the 90 used to piss me off seeing more Tennessee crap in gas stations off of I 75 in north Georgia than you did Georgia. Now it's minimal if any Tennessee stuff.

Order restored, thank god

This was the basic point. I would add Walmart to that list as if your gear is in your store you own that territory. A lifetime ago Sewanee and Vanderbilt owned the middle of Tennessee. A generation ago the Vols owned it. Now I see Tide and Blue Raider gear more than Vol gear in that part of the state. Never thought that would happen in my lifetime.
