Vanderbilt Drive
We're moving Vanderbilt Drive to the Coliseum. Two hours before the game, we'll be set up on the North side of the Coliseum with the WSM caravan, Tennessee Army National Guard climbing wall and Humvee, Air Force Display Area, and the Gillette $25,000 football toss. Jack in the Box and Coke will be giving away free product and Vanderbilt pennants at the WSM caravan as we broadcast the pregame show live with Joe Fisher, John Gromos, and Kevin Ingram.

National Anthem:
Little Big Town- Sony Music

Color Guard: Vanderbilt Army ROTC

Half-time:
The Pride of the Southland Marching Band The Spirit of Gold Marching Band

Coca-Cola Flashback The Jumbotron sets up the scenario for a famous moment in Commodore History. A fan is given three choices for how the play ends, with one of the choices being the correct answer. He or she tries to guess what play was called, and then the result is played out on the JumboTron. If the correct answer is chosen, the winner gets a Coca-Cola tailgate pack.

Dell Halftime Stats Bell South Halftime Highlights

In-stadium promos: Coca-Cola Kick-Off Kid- Before every home game, children (age 6 and up) can sign up on Vanderbilt Drive to become the Coca-Cola Kick-Off Kid. The winner will be announced during the pregame radio broadcast by Joe Fisher at the WSM caravan out on Vanderbilt Drive. The winner and a chaperone get to be on the sidelines for pregame and the Kick-Off kid gets to run out on the field and retrieve the tee from the opening kick-off.

Bell South Trivia- A fan is selected to answer a trivia question up on the JumboTron. If they get the answer right, they win a Bell South gift certificate. If they get it wrong, the person sitting behind them gets the prize.

Kroger Fan of the Game The Jumbotron cameras scan the crowd to find the loudest, most excited Commodore fan. When you hear the music, get ready…you could be The Kroger Fan of the Game.

Celebrity Band Contest Each week we have a special guest join our band. At the first timeout of the third quarter, we'll reveal who this week's celebrity band member is.
