How to Have Fun at the Tennessee/Wyoming Game
Talking points of the world's ugliest half-and-half*:
- Very interesting conversation with the lady who thought I was trying to fake the number "16". (Yeah, Manning fever is alive and well in Tennessee!)
- To be fair, the "sad drunk" guy approached from my right side.
- H/T to the swift-thinking Wyoming fan after the game who, upon suddenly seeing this in front of him, offered a high-five. The "swift-thinking" part was offering the high-five "only to the good side".
- Very fun conversations with (a) the officer at the gate who "threatened" to not let me enter, (b) the young vendors who weren't really sure what to say, and (c) the middle-aged vendor who was utterly fascinated that a "Wyoming person" might be found all the way out in Knoxville.
- Tangent: I'm sitting in the student section, and this picture was taken somewhere in the late 1st/early 2nd quarter. That wide swath of empty seats must be the only significant patch of emptiness, right? 99,000+ announced attendance, right? (Try about 75,000.)
- See? Your momma warned you that bloggers are far less cool in person.
*No jerseys were harmed in the making of this half-and-half. Your optometrist is thanking me, too.

I had this image in my mind that you looked like The Brain from Pinky and the Brain. Thanks for ruining that.

LOL
Do you remember the episode where Brain disguised himself as an employee? The one with the microwave and non-dairy creamer?

It's been a while
I can’t believe how old that show is now when I think about it.

Pretty good, but
You should have shaved one half of your beard.

The guy's head looks off center.

heh
nope. But it isn’t a shop job, if that’s what you were wondering.
Trust me, if it was, I would have used a handsomer head.
