NORTH: You ask "Where's the stadium?" When you find it, you walk right in.
SOUTH: When you're near it, you'll hear it. On game day it becomes the state's third largest city.

I think that statement is NOT an exageration...especially at UT (that's Tennessee for you Texas fans)

Knoxville is bigger than Blacksburg. The Virginia Tech stadium seats 65,000 and the town only seats 40,000.

And we all know that you can't spell "Citrus" without UT.

There are some UTnuts in my neighborhood that for every UT game paint the front lawn orange/white checkerboard, put up the giant orange UT canopy over the driveway, put on an orange UT full truck hood cover, take down old Glory and replace her with the UT flag, take out the orange UT lawn furniture, set up 7 TV's in the garage (all have the UT game on), and I even think they have a UT beer keg.

I really should take a picture of this madness some day, since most folks that have never been to the South just don't know about Southern football.

"On game day it becomes the state's third largest city."

LSU's Death Valley comes to mind.
