Tennessee Football’s waitlist for season ticket has now surpassed 20,000 fans, according to athletic director Danny White’s post on social media on Wednesday.
“Vol Nation proves again why y’all are the best fan base in all of sports!” White wrote on X.

Neyland Stadium’s sellout streak currently at 20 games
Tennessee has a current Neyland Stadium sellout streak of 20 games, dating back to a 63-6 win over Akron on September 17, 2022. All seven home games this season and in 2023 were sold out, as well as the final six home games of the 2022 season.
Tennessee announced on August 15, more than two weeks before the August 31 season-opener against Chattanooga, that five home games for the season were already sold out — Kent State, Florida, Alabama, Kentucky and Mississippi State — with limited single-game tickets available for this season opener against Chattanooga and the UTEP game.
Chattanooga was announced as a sellout on August 26 and UTEP was announced as a sellout on November 6.
The Vols are 24-4 at home during the Josh Heupel era. They are 19-1 over their last 20 home games, dating back to the start of the 2022 season.

Tennessee led SEC in total attendance, average home attendance in 2023
Tennessee led the SEC in total home attendance (713,405) and average home attendance (101,915) during the 2023 season. The Vols were ranked third and fourth nationally in those categories, respectively.
This season was the third time in 23 years that Tennessee sold out football season tickets, doing so last May and in August 2016.
It was announced in April that Tennessee had sold out its season-ticket allotment of 70,500 for a second straight season and at the time there was a “season ticket interest list” of 15,000 fans.
“People around the country are trying to figure out how to make their stadiums smaller,” White said during the Big Orange Caravan stop in Nashville in April. “We’re 102,000 strong and sold out for the season. We’re fortunate at Tennessee to have what I believe to be the best fanbase in sport.”
