Tennessee football crowd cheers President Trump pregame flyover, appearance on big screen
Tennessee and Texas football fans at Neyland Stadium saw Air Force One fly over the field ahead of Saturday's game, and President Trump later made an appearance
Fans had been in their seats at Neyland Stadium for hours prior to the start of the Texas football game against the Tennessee Volunteers. The announcement that President Donald Trump would be in attendance had been made earlier that week, marking the last time Trump had attended a college football game. With the clock ticking down towards kickoff, ESPN College GameDay cameras turned their attention to the sky, capturing the sight of Air Force One performing a flyover over the stadium.
As the presidential plane flew overhead, cheers erupted from the crowd, who were clearly excited to see their former president. Trump himself was seated before the game began and received further applause from the enthusiastic fans.
