My fandom of University of Tennessee athletics has been mentioned several times on this blog. We have had season tickets for football and basketball for decades, and I have been lucky enough to attend hundreds of games. However, I am not alone in my addiction. There are thousands upon thousands of us.
One of those thousands, David Keith, has football tickets a few rows in front of us. He is also an actor who has been in some good and not-so-good movies. How big of a fan is he? Well, he wears something orange in every movie.
I just put together a “Movie Wisdom” post but decided that a David Keith version needed to be created.
I only wish that I could have found a good line from The Further Adventures of Tennessee Buck.

It’s all business.
Violence doesn’t discriminate.
There’s an old saying that too much pride can kill a man.
Justice isn’t a sin.
Those are words of wisdom from the movies of a guy who sits in front of us at football games. There is only one more thing to say. Go Big Orange!
