Tennessee football fan gets into argument with wife live during Vols postgame radio show
No. 15 Tennessee rolled to a convincing 69-3 victory over Chattanooga in the Vols’ first game of the 2024 college football season on Saturday.
There was little to critique in the victory as Josh Heupel’s squad demolished an overmatched Mocs team. Starting quarterback Nico Iamaleava was brilliantly efficient in the start, completing 22 of 28 passes for 314 yards and three touchdowns, while running back Dylan Sampson rushed 12 times for 124 yards and three more scores.
The defense was also impressive, limiting Chattanooga to just 227 offensive yards and a paltry three points.

However, at least one Tennessee fan had something to gripe about after the game. And it had nothing to do with what occurred on the field. As noted by Russell Smith — one of the hosts for “The Voluntary Reaction” postgame show on Fox Sports Knoxville — a Tennessee fan got into a verbal argument with his wife after calling into the radio show.
It led to an awkward moment live on the air as listeners everywhere heard the argument.
“Get off the damn sports radio, it doesn’t matter to your family,” a woman can be heard saying in the background. “It’s a loser situation. My dad needs your help.”
After a short pause, the woman can then be heard saying, “I’m so done with you. I know you don’t care. … I’ll take your two-and-a-half million dollars.”
At that point, the audio cuts out, with no obvious outcome in the verbal argument.
Whether the Tennessee fan will call into the show again remains to be seen.

Witnesses told deputies Beirne was in the backyard pool with multiple children while another adult was inside the home.
According to investigators, one of the children ran inside to alert the adult that Beirne was allegedly forcing another child underwater.
The adult rushed to the pool and demanded that Beirne release the child, but she refused, authorities said.

The adult then pulled Beirne away and helped the child out of the water. Officials said another adult arrived at the home and briefly interacted with Beirne before deputies arrived. Beirne left the scene before law enforcement responded.
The children were taken inside the home while emergency personnel were called. Authorities said the child suffered minor injuries and bruising.

L.L.Bean has officially opened the doors to its inaugural Tennessee location at Cool Springs Galleria Mall.
The boot has arrived. After months of anticipation, L.L.Bean opened its inaugural Tennessee location at Cool Springs Galleria mall in Franklin July 17.
To celebrate and spread the word, L.L.Bean’s 13-foot-tall Bootmobile boot-shaped vehicle made appearances throughout the Franklin area, including stops at The Franklin Butchery, Hank’s Coffee Station, Leiper’s Fork Distillery and a Nashville Sounds game.
“For generations, Tennesseans have shopped with L.L.Bean through our catalog and online channels, and we’re excited to finally bring the brand experience to life in Franklin,” said L.L.Bean District Manager Kenon Mitchell. “With its strong outdoor culture and growing community, Franklin is a natural home for L.L.Bean. We look forward to deepening our connection with longtime customers while introducing the brand to new audiences through our legendary service, quality products and outdoor expertise.”
Some fans of the Maine-based outdoor gear store arrived for the opening before dawn.
First in a line of about 150 people was Paul Smith, who got there at 3 a.m.
“We are super excited for this,” Smith said. “We always go up to their headquarters in Maine, so we know what L.L. Bean is and we love them.”
Smith was most excited to purchase some more of their equipment: “Their outdoor equipment is really great. Their backpacks are well known for being waterproof and long-lasting.”
L.L.Bean also made a $10,000 contribution to the Franklin Family YMCA. Since 2022, L.L.Bean has contributed more than $2.25 million to YMCA Summer Camp scholarships.
“We’re an all-American outdoor lifestyle program,” Mitchell said. No matter if you’re walking your dog, playing with your kids, or you’re hiking around, we’re providing the gear that helps to make that experience better. We’ve been around for 114 years and our stuff is really well crafted, that people have loved for years. We’re happy to bring this store to our current fans while bringing our store to more people.
