Now that the field work is done to prepare Bristol Motor Speedway for the “Battle at Bristol,” the next step is finishing up the surroundings.

Nine days remain until the September 10 kickoff at Bristol Motor Speedway, matching the Tennessee Volunteers and Virginia Tech Hokies in an unprecedented football extravaganza at the half-mile NASCAR circuit.

About 150,000 fans are expected to attend the game, which would set an NCAa attendance record for college football.

And with tens of thousands of fans flocking to Bristol for a record-smashing evening, that makes for a high demand for souvenirs.
