Six-time pro bowler, Chad Johnson, tweeted he would be traveling to Knoxville for his daughter’s official visit with the University of Tennessee Track & Field team.

He said he would also attend the UT vs UK game, but before the game, he went to an IHOP in North Knoxville, and tweeted a picture of $14.29 bill with a $1,000 tip.

Johnson wrote on the receipt that it’s his first time in the ‘ville, going to the game tonight but I don’t know the Rocky Top song. He was seen wearing a Hendon Hooker jersey on the sidelines at the game.
