Grandfathers, grandfathers, Grandfathers

Yes, it has been a long dry spell. I haven't been able to bring myself back to the subject of college football after that bowl game. But, summer's here, and the smell of controversy is in the air, so we must be nearing the end of the off-season. This year's biggest controversy to date? The grandfathered tickets. Yes, *those* tickets that all yall been keepin for generations! UT announced that they're no longer going to allow grandfathered (since 85) season ticket holders on the sidelines to keep their tickets without donating each year $500 to $1000 per seat to the Volunteer athletic scholarship fund. *OUCH!* Now, the EpiscoVOL was really upset last year when the invitation to purchase season tickets arrived in the mail AFTER the deadline. Turns out, woulda lost 'em anyway, I can't keep up with $1000 per seat per year in addition to ticket cost! This season, we've got the games (if not the team) to haul in that kind of cash for good seats, and it looks like alot of folks are going to be dumping their seats, so rich kids, get yer wallets out!
