:rock: yeah Nashville!!!! :rock:

NASCAR, barbecue make Nashville "manliest" city - Chicago Tribune

Manly Study Highlights
-- Nashville is the Mecca of manliness. With its high number of NASCAR
enthusiasts, popularity of hunting and fishing and concentration of BBQ
restaurants, the Music City stands alone atop the mountain of manliness.
-- Despite high ratings in the "bowling" category, New York City
ranks 50th out of 50 in the study due to low scores in manly indicators
such as "fishing," "home improvement" and "drag
racing."
-- If you're in the Midwest and looking to enjoy a game with a cold
beverage, look no farther than St. Louis, which has the highest
concentration of sports bars in the country.
-- Grand Rapids, Mich. has more monster truck rallies, per capita, than any
other U.S. city.
-- Philadelphia and Chicago, with low scores in the "hunting"
category fail to crack the top 25 (ranked 30th and 46th respectively).
-- The men of Oklahoma City know how to snack with gusto. Their city owns
the highest purchase rate of salty snacks, such as COMBOS(R).
-- Got chainsaws? What about hammers and power drills? The men of New
Orleans do. The "Big Easy" boasts more hardware stores per
capita than any other U.S. city.

That wouldn't have anything to do with Katrina reconstruction, does it? :unsure:

Combos are the expert on manly now? I would assume they would have come out with the top ten stoned cities considering who i usually see eating Combos.

I am about 99% positive that Bristol and probably any other city in East TN has better ratios of of hunters, fishers, BBQ joints, and NASCAR fans.

Pretty much this.

But I don't think that Bristol or Knoxville was big enough of a city for them to survey.

I'm confused how watching a sport that has Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon as two of its biggest stars is "manly."

I'm surprised this report didn't mention the manly packs of Hispanics that prowl the streets of Nashville decked out in NBA gear.
