Anna Across America - Knoxville (Part 3: On Neyland's Hallowed Ground)

 Neyland Stadium -- and the gridiron named Shields-Watkins Field contained within -- is a mecca for all who bow down to the Tennessee Volunteers.   Originally constructed in 1921, the stadium has expanded 16 times to become the largest in the Southeastern Conference with more than 102,000 seats.

On a recent weekend afternoon, Anna, her namesake Dr Pepper can, and her father David gained an up-close look at the place where Vol football legends are born and triumphs celebrated for the ages.   Let's share in their experience below.

Editor's Note:  Look for frequent updates this week as we celebrate SEC Championship Week.
