Raise a Glass to Support Your Tennessee Vols!
Looking for a new way to support your beloved Tennessee Vols? Well, how about raising a glass of vodka? That’s right! The Volunteer Club, a collective that focuses on name, image, and likeness deals for University of Tennessee athletes, has launched Volunteer Club Vodka. And the best part? 25% of the proceeds go directly to supporting student athletes.
Sheridan Gannon, the Volunteer Club’s Director of Digital Marketing, expressed his excitement about the new venture: “Volunteer Club Vodka isn’t just another spirit; it’s a celebration of the Tennessee legacy.” In a press release, he stated, “As supporters enjoy a glass, they also directly contribute to the future success of Tennessee Athletics.”
Brought to you by Foundry Distilling Company, based in West Des Moines, Iowa, this pot-distilled vodka is made from 100% corn. With prices ranging from $21.99 to $25.99 for a 750 ml bottle, it’s an affordable way to toast your team’s victories or drown your sorrows after a heartbreaker (we’re looking at you, South Carolina).
Beginning next week, Volunteer Club Vodka will be available in liquor stores across Tennessee. So, whether you’re hosting a tailgate party or enjoying a drink at home, you can now show your support for the Vols by raising a glass of Volunteer Club Vodka.
It’s important to note that the Volunteer Club, based in Knoxville, raises funds through various NIL deals to support Tennessee student athletes. Their press release states that about 90% of the money raised goes directly towards supporting these athletes’ educational and athletic endeavors. The club is facilitated by sports and media agency Spyre Sports Group.
