KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — If you don't want to drive and park at UT football games this fall, it's okay to Uber but don't plan on riding a scooter.

As for scooters, they'll be a no-no. UT said for pedestrian safety, all rentable electric scooters approved by the City of Knoxville, the VeoRide and Spin, will be disabled and removed from campus before each home game.

Tennessee's home opener against Georgia State is set for 3:30 on Saturday, August 31. The next weekend, against BYU, will be the first game where fans will be able to buy alcohol at Neyland Stadium.
