Says the guy that only wants football in Neyland. That's thinking small. I think use for Hockey once a year and then a Lacrosse Tourney in the spring would be great. But then single mindedness of the some of posters on VN, never ceases to amaze me.
Wasn't really written that way but OK. Your reply seemed to indicate it was serious also. I see you backtracked later when the actual popularity of the idea sunk in.LMAO (still)
It was mostly tongue in cheek, dude. Take a walk, listen to music, play with your kids, whatever.....in other word, CTFO!
Life is short....have fun.
Being a Nashville team, they should do it at VandyJust read this article Could Nashville host NHL Winter Classic? League is interested and Predators believe they will
It’s essentially saying the NHL would like to do an outdoor game in the next year or two in Nashville. They can do it in an NFL stadium or college stadium, or if push comes to shove in a smaller park type setting.
The big issue is they need about 3 weeks of prep time, which could interfere with NFL schedules. The outdoor game is usually on New Years Day. Being a Vol fan I couldn’t help but think how amazing it would be to see it in Neyland.
Beside working it out with the school the biggest issue I see is that the fans would likely want to have it in Nashville. But still can’t help but dream about how interesting it would be! Also thinking about the game being held at Vandy makes me want to vomit.
Thoughts...
Oh and I’m placing it in the football section because it’s a question about Neyland Stadium.
Quick question, why do you think hockey is a Canadian sport?
Lacrosse is the National Sport of Canada.I realize that it's also very popular in other parts of the world. But ice hockey is a way of life in Canada. I believe it's the national sport.
I get that it's also played in the States, but probably less than 10% of our population pays any attention to it. The NHL never would have lasted as long as it has without the participation of the Canadian teams, IMO.
Some hockey fans don't mind warmth. It is cool to see the game in Buffalo with the snow falling etc, but really, only a few would gripe. Problem is rain. Snow is much nicer to watch hockey in.It’s like 70 degrees in Nashville today. Just keep it in the cold weather cities.
I used to think the same things, but one game was all it took. I suggest a trip to Nashville for a game. It rocks. Heck, you might even like it!
