UT vs. FL - Eating Gator Meat

This happened a while ago, but I just got the pictures and wanted to share them with my fellow football fans!
The FUTURE COBB-WEBB... GREENE-BEEBE
During our time in High Point, we usually watched the game with the BIGGEST FLORIDA FANS - Glen and Lori! Even though they are Florida fans, they are precious people. I usually left their home with my head hung low after watching TN get pounded.

However, this year started a new tradition! Our UT Fan Friends - Brad and Julie - invited us to their home for the TN vs. FL game this year! They are also PRECIOUS PEOPLE and they ROOT FOR THE VOLS! GO BIG ORANGE!
If you have never seen a TN fan go "all-out" for a TN football game, you need to tailgate with Julie and Brad in their living room! It's incredible! Shakers on the mantle, a "Rocky Top" playing bottle opener for Orange CRUSH, a football game in the backyard during half-time and a phone that rings off the hook with folks calling for updates! (Julie's dream-job would be to be a Sports Anchor on ESPN and these precious friends call so she can practice! Ha-ha!) It is ROCKY TOP PARADISE!
Before the game started this year, Brad made a run to the store for a special Florida appetizer...GATOR MEAT! The boys thought it was the coolest!!

This year, my head still hung low after the VOLS got pounded...BUT I ENJOYED THE LOSS WITH TENNESSEE FANS! We loved being with you Brad and Julie!

As in years past, I'll say, "Good game, Glen and Lori! Wait until next year!"
