There are those of us sprinkled throughout the LB that sing and dance along to it outside the student section, too.

I've been hearing it at the LB since I was a kid, it's my understanding it was introduced around the early-to-mid 1990s.

I wish we'd play something different before the extra point, then the fight song after. I hate that the band has to quiet down while the extra point is going on.

It's fine. A bit lame musically and historically, and exclusionary. But some love it, so it's fine.

No way it should replace the fight song.

Yeah I don't think anyone wants that.

Go Tigers Go is the Platonic ideal of the college fight song.

First time I ever heard it a utk fan was singing it at one of our games in the 90's. I don't care for it.

This myth is untrue.

Tennessee fans have a chant that goes something like - It's great to be a Tennessee Vol. But it's just that, a chant.

This song has never been used by Tennessee no matter how many times you tell people it has.

Not sure what you mean by "myth". I was at the Memphis UTK game and they were singing it.

I have searched high and lo online for years to find what you're talking about and it simply doesn't exist.

I think it was played by Westwood and Fairley in the late 80's. White Station's band started playing it around 1991. A fairly large group of White Station band members went to UofM in 1992-1993 and introduced it.
