Description:

There is no college ball more passionate and competitive than football in the Southeastern Conference, where seven of the twelve schools boast stadiums bigger than any in the NFL and 6.5 million fans hit the road every year to hoot and holler their teams to victory.

In September 2006, popular sports columnist and lifelong University of Tennessee fan Clay Travis set out on his "Dixieland Delight Tour." Without a single map, hotel reservation, or game ticket, he began an 8,000-mile journey through the beating heart of the Southland. As Travis toured the SEC, he immersed himself in the bizarre game-day rituals of the common fan, brazenly dancing with the chancellor's wife at a Vanderbilt frat party, hanging with University of Florida demigod quarterback Tim Tebow, and abandoning himself totally to the ribald intensity and religious fervor of SEC football. Dixieland Delight is Travis's hilarious, loving, irreverent, and endlessly entertaining chronicle of a season of ironic excess in a world that goes a little crazy on football Saturdays.

I'm in the middle of reading it, but it is well written and hilarious at times. I often find myself laughing out loud, making for awkward moments on the morning metro ride. The section about Jefferson Pilot is perfection.

Hilarious and insightfull look at the teams, fans and structure of SEC Football. Once you read this, you'll be a fan forever.

3Decent read for non-SEC enthusiasts. Otherwise don't waste your timeAug 10, 2009
Clay offers a glimpse of what SEC football is like from a fan's perspective. There's nothing groundbreaking especially if you are already an SEC fan. He simply visits every campus, offers a few opinions about the places, throws out a few tired jokes that SEC fans have heard countless times and lets us know he went to Vandy Law School. It was boring to me, but for someone completely unfamiliar with southern college football culture, it might be somewhat entertaining.

5A fun trip we all would like to takeJul 25, 2009
Just a fun read for SEC fans (I love his ranking of schools by parties, women, etc). Well written and just a fun book to read and pass on to another SEC fan. We take ourselves too seriously and this is just a light hearted look at "our conference". Roll Tide!

5Dixieland DelightMay 20, 2009
This was a great book with interesting stories of how football is done right. No football in the country beats SEC Football! Great job telling it like it really is. I only wish I could have come along.
