Tennessee Vols legend Peyton Manning went viral this weekend essentially for being Peyton Manning. 

The Pro Football Hall of Fame member was spotted in Omaha at the College World Series on Friday night during the Florida Gators' win against the Virginia Cavaliers. 

Manning, who was sitting with his son Marshall at the game, went viral for his "dad look" while sitting in the stands. 

Beer in hand, plenty of merch, a stressed out look, and a "dad style" Tennessee hat — Peyton is every dad that steps into Home Depot on Saturday morning to grab some items for that weekend's home project.

By the way, you might notice that Peyton's son is wearing a Virginia shirt. That's because Peyton's wife graduated from Virginia (unfortunately for the Cavaliers, Peyton's bad Florida luck must've impacted UVA on Friday night as the Gators came from behind to win). 

Peyton was in attendance for the Vols' last trip to Omaha in 2021 when, ironically, the Vols lost to Virginia and Texas. The good news for Tennessee is that Peyton's presence at the Vols' win over Alabama last fall should erase any thoughts of a Manning-Curse.
