This one Tennessee fan loves Neyland Stadium so much that he wanted to put his own in his backyard

College football fans really are some of the most passionate people on the planet, and that especially goes for SEC fans. As we’ve seen time and time again, SEC fans have some really unique ways to show how much they love their respective college football programs.

This is a point that can be validated by what one Tennessee Volunteers fan recently pulled off.

Mark Whitehead was holding a birthday party at his residence recently, and he loves Neyland Stadium so much that he decided to recreate the field in his own yard.


Now that is some hard-core dedication right there. All the way down to the checkerboard end zones, this is actually masterfully done. This took a lot of hard work, no doubt, so you can’t even hate on the man for doing this. While some might think it’s a little crazy, you can’t knock Mr. Whitehead in that regard.

Again, this is just another example of how passionate SEC fans can really be sometimes, and looking at this also gets you that much more fired up for football season to get here already.
