I headed to Knoxville this weekend in hopes of catching the Rebels beating Tennessee in a safe, clean, and normal game. Obviously, if you opened up your phone at all this weekend, those weren’t the same adjectives used.
Buckle up, there’s a lot to unpack here.
Knoxville is fantastic. I heard plenty of hype for it and have had this game circled on the calendar for a while. The SEC really is just so great. I got into Knoxville around noon on Saturday and started to head out to see the city.
The first stop was Babalu, a Rocky Top Talk recommendation, that did not disappoint.
