Another "Third Saturday in October" Win

Year before last, Daddy and I decided to make the trip to Knoxville to see the Alabama vs. Tenneessee football game one of our traditions, and a way to continue our "father-daughter date night" that we used to have when I was a kid.

So... We set out early Saturday morning, in the Game Day Caddy! With our picnic basket packed and a full tank of gas, we were excited to embark on our Second Bi-Annual UA vs. UT road trip.
Three and a half hours and a few pit stops later, we said "Hello" to a sea of pumpkins and Neyland Stadium... A place where we rocked charts and knew our team was getting back it's "greatness" just two years ago.
Once we made our way through the gate and up the ramp, this is what you see from Gate 10!
"Rocky Top you'll N.E.V.E.R. be, home sweet home to me!"
There's our team! Getting ready to rock and roll to another win against the Tenneessee Vols!
Check out that sunset! Daddy felt like it might be a bad sign... Me on the other hand, just thought it was pretty!
By this point, we were up by three touchdowns and super excited we were going to be driving back home with another "W" in the books! RRRROOOOLLLLL TIDE!
Our father-daughter dates NEVER dissapoint, and I can't think of any other way to spend such a special win than with my daddy! We may not be making another trip to the National Championship this year, but that doesn't mean we don't still have one of the best teams in the country! Our boys have heart... and winning one of the biggest rivalaries since Coach Bryant's coaching days shows just how great they are!
Roll Tide!
To My Daddy: Thank you so much for a wonderful weekend! Our trips to Knoxville have always been so special to me! I hope we can make that trip for many years to come - except, eventually, I think we're going to have to give in to renting a room :) although sitting in traffic listinening to UT's coach whine will NEVER grow old! LOVE YOU BIG!
