re: Anybody Been To A Game in Tennessee ??

Lived in Knoxville during residency. Calhouns is ok, the river view is nice but the food is just kind of meh. Downtown Grill and Brewery I think has much better food and atmosphere...and their microbrewery is incredible.

Tailgating is ok, nothing to write home about. The problem with UTK is everything is spaced out, there's no real "tailgating" area, plus the fans don't really interact like we do, they just do their own thing. If you're looking for a rowdier crowd, any of the parking lots behind the businesses along Cumberland ave near the stadium will be as close to what you are used to as far as tailgating in Baton Rouge, but get there early.

Seats in the stadium suck...literally like 9" per seat!

Enjoy the trip, if you have any questions will be more than happy to help you guys out!
