Check out this story about a tailgating weekend in Knoxville over on SEC Sports Fan. Highlights include:

10:56 a.m. After a successful stint at the Tap Room (since we weren’t asked to leave this time) we headed up to our old stomping grounds, the Longbranch Saloon, for our traditional PBR tall boy. After I ordered the beers, an LSU fan smiled, shook my hand and said, “You two are the only people under 60 years of age I have ever seen order a PBR.” I offered to buy him one, and he politely refused, so I told Coach B, “For the first time in the history of the SEC, an LSU fan has turned down a free beer. Call hell and see what the temperature is.”

There aren’t hipsters in Baton Rouge? The boys also have this advice…

One thing I should mention to all SEC fans is to properly display your car flags. When driving to the game, always observe the two flag minimum. Flying only one flag makes you look like either a Yankee, or my third cousin Cliff, who likes to make his own leather belts.
