    Plan on getting to knoxville around lunchtime, going to Calhoun's on the River for lunch, walking up and down the strip and just generally basking in the fact that I am back in Knoxville after geez...7 years or so, then headed to the 8th's tailgate then the game. Besides normal stuff such as the Vol walk and taking a look at the vol navy is there anything I should think about doing? First game with pops in 20 years or so and I am hoping to pack as much in as possible.

    TIA

    Check out Market Square and downtown. You'll be stunned how much it has changed.

    I thought that was a given.

    hat, will check out Market and downtown. In knoxville until Monday so thinking more gameday activities. I am sure I will be blown away (insert NYY jokes here) by the changes

    You been to Skybox yet? I'm looking for a review from somebody who has been.

    The previous iteration was a lot of fun (circa 2008 or 2009) just for the novelty factor. That can't have changed. The food was eh because they didn't have a full kitchen in the building, but other than that it was cool. I imagine it has only gotten better. I think it is called something else now though. Icon or something.

    Or are you talking about somewhere else?

    I've enjoyed a lot of Ideal game days. It's no coincidence that the only one I didn't enjoy was one where DDIAPOS was on the sidelines.

    No clue what it used to be. Somebody told me there's a new sports bar on Gay St called Skybox.

    Ya, I'm talking about the bar in the sun sphere that had the same name. Not sure if they are related.
