Because it is ridiculously embarrassing and speaks to the bottomless money pit that is the UT athletic department. How about this for a slogan:

'We cut out $80,000 in hot dogs, and we still can't make it past the sweet sixteen'

Anyway, I live over here in Knoxville, and it has been all over the news and the papers. For well over a month now. There was a letter to the editor of the News Sentinel about it this very week. It is embarrassing.

Why do you think it embarrassing? What do the ushers at Memphis games get? I am not sure if that is the norm or if that was just a nice perk the UT gave them. If it is the norm it is embarrassing.

I actually know a few of the ushers. The fans at Thompson Boling are so embarrassed by it, that they are buying food for them. The letters to the editor in the News Sentinel repeatedly talk about how embarrassing it is. That is why.
