Game Day

Mighty Athena

Mighty Athena

Game day, the Vols versus the Dores or in the vernacular, the Tennessee Volunteers versus the Vanderbilt Commodores. The goddess Athena is sporting her U of T colors from inside her command bunker in the Nashville Parthenon. I guess that makes her a bit of a traitor. She’s not quite yellow, not quite gold and not really orange either, but more of a Tennessee Tangerine. The day began with breakfast at a French crepes place, followed by the East Tennessee History Museum and then Michigan football on TV at Barley’s, a sports bar, along with beer and pizza. Michigan lost, as did Purdue, but Michigan State won! Now, as my ticket commands, “I will give my all for Tennessee today!” Who also won easily.
