SkyBox
Mike and I were invited to watch the game in a Sky Box tonight. I must say, you feel pretty special when you are up there. They have a menu for before the game, half-time and after the game. The food is endless. That was cool.
Sitting in a skybox is cool too. It is air-conditioned with an un-obstructed view, etc.
I don't think it is for me though. I had a really good time but I kind of had to behave more than I am used to at games. I kind of like the loud, crazy, messy student section. When the wave was going around tonight in the stands I stood up and cheered in the skybox and got some strange looks. They are not used to people hootin' and hollerin' I guess.
I did sit behind former lady Vol national champion Sidney Spencer. That was very cool. She was very nice and not stuck up at all about her celebrity status. In fact, she was getting drinks for other people in the box and picking up other people's trash.
Oh, and Mayor Ragsdale was on the elevator with us on the way out of the skybox. There were actually about 50 people on the elevator, or maybe 30 but it was packed. We were on there for about 10 minutes and someone most certainly farted. I don't think it was the mayor and it definitely was not me.
All in all it was quite fun and I felt like a total VIP. Oh, and did I mention that Mike commandeered a golf cart from the Rambler and we drove it from tailgate to tailgate and we pulled right up to the skybox elevators and parked it. That was door to door service baby!!!
