So was TYS named for Mike Tyson, or Tyson Chicken? (Maybe Mike's first name is really McGhee.)

TYS still has five DL mainline flights per day, much better than HSV with 2. When I graduated from UTK, I flew from TYS all over for interview trips and got very familiar with the old (late 70s) DL terminal in ATL.... Unhappily most of these trips pre-dated the frequent flier programs. It's no fun being Grandpa Simpson.....!
