Lane Kiffin's announcement that he's leaving Tennessee for USC has ticked off the locals in Knoxville. Hundreds of students gathered on Johnny Majors Boulevard and blocked the road, apparently with the goal of keeping Kiffin from leaving the parking lot at the Neyland-Thompson Sports Complex. They also borrowed a page from the West Virginia playbook by igniting a mattress.
After the jump is video of one fan's reaction. Note that the video contains obscenities. Thanks to Richard.
Wow. And I thought *II took college football too seriously.

Why is it that white people rioting just looks like a 5k/Fun Run? No wonder Lane wanted to get back to LA.
