We spent this Labor Day weekend in Nashville for the Tennessee opening game. I have to mention the most important part about this weekend is often forgotten for its true meaning and covered up with the excitement of celebrating a 3 day weekend. I remember doing a report on Labor Day back in high school and realizing how hard American workers had it years ago. Since most of us spend the majority of our time working during the week, could you imagine what it would be like to not have any labor laws? This holiday gives recognition to the success of the labor movement and allows us to celebrate the resiliency and achievements of American workers. With that being said, I hope everyone celebrated their extra day off accordingly. Mine was spent cooking, cleaning, and watching Netflix with my sweet pup, who was also exhausted after a weekend in Nashville. This past Saturday's game was so much. This was the first time UT had played a game in the Titans stadium, or at least the first time I had ever been to a UT game there. We set up a tailgate and celebrated just like any other time. I will say,this was the hottest game I have ever been to! It was 96 degrees and sunny outside. When you are singing, dancing, and drinking with all your friends outside for hours, you would have thought you were in the Sahara. The game was so much fun and our seats were awesome. Due to the extreme heat, the girls and I all left at halftime. We continued to celebrate while drinking "bushwakers" at a place down town. For those of you who don't know what this drink is, it's like the greatest chocolate milkshake ever, but for adults only. Definitely a must try if you're ever in Nashville. The game was a success with a 59-30 win. Go Vols!
