Deep in the middle of the largest city in the world, you can hear the sounds of “Rocky Top” floating down the street. Follow passersby clad in orange to find the now iconic all-orange bar in Tokyo, Japan. 

“Good Ole Tennessee Bar” is the dream of alum Yoshitoshi Momoki (‘93), who called his time at UT “the golden age” of his life. Yoshi serves up authentic Tennessee spirit with Vol memorabilia and a bar stocked with moonshine and Tennessee whiskey. If you visit Yoshi, bring him a Tennessee gift and mark what part of the state you’re from, and you’ll be cemented in the bar’s history.
