Tennessee assistant brings out the beer barrel to masterfully troll Kentucky
Beating a rival means so much more than a game in the standings. It means at least a full year of bragging rights against that opponent.
Tennessee assistant coach Brian Niedermeyer took advantage of that right Tuesday with a masterful troll job of Kentucky. Before leaving for a recruiting trip, Niedermeyer tweeted a photo of himself with the famous beer barrel trophy on his desk.
The winner of the Kentucky-Tennessee rivalry used to win the Beer Barrel trophy but after an alcohol-related car crash killed two Wildcats players in 1998 a week before the rivalry game, the teams cancelled the trophy ceremony that year and then discontinued it.
Tennessee, having won the last matchup when the Beer Barrel trophy still existed in 1997, still apparently possesses the infamous trophy.
Despite getting outgained and letting Kentucky control the ball for more than 40 minutes, Tennessee beat its rival, 17-13, on Saturday. Thus, the trophy is in the proper hands even though the two programs no longer exchange it.
Check out the trolling photo below:
Had to stop by the office before getting out on the road recruiting making sure everything was right where it was supposed to be. #VolsBy90 #GBO pic.twitter.com/U3uKDgK3Ej

Now that the stadiums are selling Beer…
Go Vols
That barrel got anything still in it…? I’m thirsty…..
i heard it is full of Viagara. Guess they are willing to do anything to get their team “ up” for the game. Good job of “trolling “ Kentucky. Too bad Tennessee is at that level and has no way of bettering itself. LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!
Lol! Obsess much??
I would like to ask you the same thing. I can’t post anything without you responding. Bro, go get a date. I know what you are going to say. I am a kid, grow up d- bag, blah blah blah. Get some new material. Cause you coming into a gun fight with a pair of twizzers. You and every other Tennessee fan are the most insecure and thin skinned sissies in America. You can live in a cotton candy world if you want to but in the real world, people know y’all and pathetic.
Rent free
Lol! You’re doing great little boy! Keep it up. No insecurities here tho…
He certainly tries very hard. True dedication
What’s Viagara?
You have a hard on for Tennessee.
FL puts out the most college lvl football players one would think they would be the most dominant team ever but not the gayturds talk about LOSERS GB
UT is so far in your head boy it really is comical. Must be difficult going through life in such distress and misery.
Gatorboy14 uf going to the sec this year?? i didnt think so so when they bring the sec title home come talk s#!+ ill wait a few years on you looser no matter how many wins you get unless you bring home the title
Do your parents know you’re back on the computer, gatorboy?
Based on your joke level ability, I’m assuming the 14 in gatorboy is the year you were born, as in 2014?
Until we take care of business on the field against you guys, can’t really say nothing but congrats. Go CATS!!!
Apparently Coach Niedermeyer is too darn stupid to know the history of the drunk driving fatal accident that ended the beer barrel tradition.
Here comes the snowflake! Does this triggered of your sensibilities mean Nieds is a Nazi cis-scum fascist?
I’m sure he had no idea where it’s been the last 20 years
That stupid argument is over. Move on!
The SEC and member schools made it irrelevant when they chose the money in concessions (and giving fans something they wanted.) Bring back the Barrel!!
