University of Tennessee to attempt to beat world record human letter T

The University of Tennessee will be the site of a world record attempt next week during an effort to form the world's largest human letter by forming an enormous Power T in Neyland Stadium.

The feat will be broadcast live during NBC's "Today" program, from 7-9 a.m. Wednesday, March 29, with weatherman Al Roker doing his weather reports from the stadium, according to a news release Monday from UT. The event is part of Rokerthon, Roker's annual trek across the country to break world records.

UT is attempting to bring out 4,000 students, faculty, staff and alumni to break the record. Guinness representatives will also be on site to certify the record.
