It’s just a darn shame I don’t know any Alabama expat bloggers. When I had the bet going with Chris for the Georgia game, it sure added a little extra sparkle. It would be fantastic to make some Bama baby in England (heck, anywhere in Europe would be fine) wear the beautiful Volunteer orange.
The best part about it was that the Vol-in-Law finally felt like he had a bit of a stake in it – given that his only son might have to wear the red and the black. For once, he listened to the game and said “we” when referring to Tennessee. He’s never really seen himself as a fan – merely a Vol-in-Law.
As for Cletus, my husband knows the boy has only one option in the NCAA fandom stakes, on my side it’s all UT. In the UK, universities and sports don’t really go together – although Cletus will be free to support Daddy’s alma mater in the annual Oxford-Cambridge boat race.
