Tim & Tucker's 1st "Real" Football Game

So, like I mentioned in my previous post, we took Tanner's little brothers to their first "real" football game this weekend. We went to see Tennessee play Mississippi State. Tanner had told the boys ahead of time that we were all going to be TN fans that day (they are Alabama fans). Tucker totally bought into this. He even wanted to wear one of my TN shirts (Woohoo!). Tim cheered for them, but would catch himself and try not to be too excited. It was pretty funny. Anyway, it was pretty cold, so you will see us all bundled up in layers and layers of clothing. Enjoy the pics and the stories that go along with them:

This is how we started our journey

Both of the boys had binoculars, and they loved them! (notice Tuck sporting the Big Orange apparel)

Tanner & Tim went to get us free ice cream sandwiches (yes, even though it was cold outside), and free cokes.


Then, Tucker decided to look like a duck.


There's a cool story for this next picture. TN does a thing called the "Vol Walk." All of the players walk by high-fiving the fans as they walk into the stadium. This player walked by, high-fived us, took another step, and turned back around and draped his towel across Tucker's arm. He talked about that the rest of the day, and he wants to take it with him wherever he goes.

Look: we were there too! (yes, I am wearing an ETSU hoodie. I didn't have a UT hoodie that was warm enough)

My favorite boys

Proof that we were actually inside the stadium

We were a little cold

The final score

We had a great time. The boys loved it, and they are already asking to go to another game.
