GET READY FOR THE SEASON WITH THE GAMEDAY ON ROCKY TOP 2018 MAGAZINE

Gameday on Rocky Top 2018 hits the newsstands all over the state of Tennessee (and select locations in neighboring states) later this month, but as a reader of this website, you can get it before then, and with free shipping to boot.

Pre-order Gameday on Rocky Top 2018 online, and we’ll ship it the day after we get it from the printer (which we expect to be on or before Wednesday, 5/16/18), Plus, you’ll get FREE SHIPPING (a savings of $4.95). So basically, you’ll have it delivered right to your door for the same price you’d pay at the grocery store, plus, if you order before Monday, 5/14/18, you’ll likely have it in your hands before it even shows up on the newsstands.

Free shipping will show up as an option automatically as long as you have the magazine in your cart.

Gameday on Rocky Top 2018 will only be available on newsstands in Tennessee and in limited areas in neighboring states, so if you live outside those areas, order online. And heck, even if you live in Tennessee, order online anyway this week and get it early.

As always, we had an awesome time writing the annual this year. The more we wrote and the more we thought about it, the more we concluded that the Jeremy Pruitt era holds promise because the man is intensely focused on one thing and one thing only: Football. He’s not wasting any time on false bravado, wardrobe decisions, or colorful metaphors on the virtues of patience.
Here’s the Table of Contents for this year’s edition:

Did you realize that Rocky Top is 50 years old this fall?

There are few things better than you and 100,000+ friends belting out Rocky Top in Neyland Stadium together on a Saturday afternoon. Can you believe that it’s been 50 years since Boudleaux and Felice Bryant dashed that thing off during a 10-minute break from writing sad songs for another project while tucked away in room 388 at the Gatlinburg Inn?

To celebrate the milestone, six UT students worked together to design the official 50th anniversary logo, and proceeds from the sale of products featuring the logo are divided between the Bryant family and the University of Tennessee, with the school’s portion going to the Pride of the Southland Band and the Retail and Consumer Sciences program.

The t-shirts are $16.99, and you can get them at our store in Kingsport or right here:
