Where did the milk can game originate from ?

PET milk company in Greeneville painted half blue half maroon back in the late 60s early 70s as the trophy

There used to be a dairy farm and milk proccesing plant or something almost halfway between the two of them in Greene County or something like that. But I'm not from over there so thats just what I think and have heard.

That is a great question, I've have always wanted to myself. I have asked numerous people on both sides and I have gotten a different answer from every person I have asked. But what I do know is it means a lot to both communities. 

My friend at work went to WG and he said he thinks it started in the late 70's as their version of Tennessee and Kentucky and the beer barrel. He isn't sure what inspired the milk can part though

PET Milk was a mainstay employer for most of the town

Both answers seem believable enough, I'll add them to my list of answers. LOL

The Rebels are starving and will continue their hunting rampage this Friday night.  I see a 11 buffalos getting skinned and roasted for supper with a W to add on their milk can.  

2A Rebels 48

3A Buffalos 14

I've got South Greene to win in this one by 14+ points. Something like 31-17 or 35-14. West Greene has won their 1st 2 games but not by much especially against Claiborne (6 points in OT). Northview Academy isn't very good & they only beat them by 14 points.

The Rebels I feel like are the favorites now to win their conference. Hampton was picked to win by the media during the preseason. Sullivan North which is my alma mater is also 3-0 like South Greene & they meet next week @ North. Could end up being a game for the conference championship.

Even though I'm biased I think HV and SG in week 10 will be for the conference. Haven't seen North yet on film but they are always tough. One thing we can agree on is Go Braves and #Chopon
