If you don't revive the thread should we call the cop?

Haha that would be an excellent idea lol. I actually had a city police officer tell me today that he has very few calls in that area ever. Makes me feel better. Personally Im not worried about any gangster. I'm no bad A tough guy but I'm probably not the first guy they are gonna try to rob either.

I've got friends living in the area around Belmont that I'll be staying with. Gonna scalp my ticket before the game, hopefully get something decent for 40-50$. Any suggestions for good bars to hit after the game? I know all of Broadway will be buzzing with UT fans.

Avoid Broadway. Go to Tennessee Brew Works in the Gulch. If you're hungry and want to bar hop, go to 12 South and hit Edley's and then work your way East. There are a couple of other entertaining bars on 12th. If you want to want to watch other games go to ML Rose on Charlotte or 8th.

Wait...are you old enough to drink yet? :)

CBVol, I have read through this entire thread. It was good for some laughs. I have lived in Nashville area for most of my life, Nashville itself for 30+ years. Being in sales I have made calls on every town around Nashville. So I know the exits and the areas around them. As for your hotel choice that is your perogative. The hotel you are staying at is in a rough area. I have made sales calls there during the day. Would I personally go there at night, no. Would I have loved ones out at night in that area of town, no way. You may not see any ho's and drug dealers but they are close by if you do not see them. I will kind of give everyone my opinion on areas around Nashville, take it for what it is worth.

I live in Cool Springs area ( I can be in downtown in 15 minutes easily for that discussion. 1/4 mile off 65 at McEwen exit though). There are tons of rooms in this area but not the cheapest of areas. The largest collection of restaurants to choose from short of downtown Nashville, good shopping, not a lot of night life like downton Nashville has though but most people partying take a cab into town and back out here if no DD. One of the safest areas in Middle TN. I-65 from Harding exit south towards Brentwood and on to Franklin is all safe. On I-24 do not stay any closer to town than the Waldron road exit. Trust me on this. I used to live in the area. Got to agree about Donelson Pike area and anything east towards MJ and Lebanon is good. I-65 north of town best areas would be north of Trinity lane. I-24 north of town Millersville, Pleasant View area is good. I-40 west of town is the trickiest. Really nice safe areas very close to rougher areas of town. West end, Broadway area is very nice, Charlote Ave is rough at times and is only 3 or 4 streets north of Broad. Also, some of the best steak houses are out in this area Jimmy Kelly's, Ruth Chris and several others. All of downtown around Broad and 2nd/4th Ave area is pretty safe and good eats, for a good steak in this area The Palm is down there. Best place to eat on 2nd Ave in my opinion is The Spaghetti Factory, not expensive, great food, you will be full and the Spumoni ice cream is great.

I want all my VN brothers and sisters to come in and have a great time at the game and while you are here visiting the area. The things I mentioned above are just my opinions and I am not trying to debate anyone here on the pro's and con's of certain areas around Nash. There are areas that are safe and nice even in the areas I did not recomend staying in, but I was trying to give broad areas here not a block by city block breakdown. CBVol just be safe my friend and enjoy yourself.

Also, my seats for the game are in the 45-50 yard line area, row 4 IIRC. Only around $84.00 for the seat price discussion in here. Excited and ready for this season to start. GBO.

I echo everything this guy says. And apparently he lives right next to me (live off same McEwen exit on I-65). If you have trouble finding a place, check out airbnb. You can rent a house or someone's extra room in a nice house/location for the same price.

LP Field has a strict policy on the types of bags, etc that can be brought inside. It is not the same as Neyland Stadium. No tote bags unless clear with size limits. The only purses that can be brought insides are small, around the size of a hand. There is more information on the Titans web site. Will see you in Section 111.

I received my parking pass today. It came in a very generic envelope and I almost tossed it thinking it was junk mail. Just a heads up.

I know there is a few threads about the first game but I just got our tickets in the mail. And was wondering where everybody else is sitting and what's your plans? Me and my lady are going Friday and probably going to go to the strip for the bars Friday after dinner some where and then back to the strip before the game. We're staying at the Knights Inn. Cheap and same side of the river as lp field. Going to grill out. We're in section 140 row cc. Any body in the section or staying in the Knights Inn?

If you are staying at the Knights Inn, I suggest you spend as little time as possible at the hotel. There is lots of criminal activity in that area.

I suggest dinner at Broadway Brewhouse, very affordable menu and about 50 beers on tap.

I normally stay in the nicer/nicest hotels but due to me having to pay for 6 rooms this time we chose the Knights Inn. I will revive this thread after my stay. If I don't see a drug dealer, or any crack ho's I'll go through this thread and find each person who told me how bad at was and make sure everyone knows your opinion lacks and substance. If you're right I'll apologize and say you were right. I just know how people are and make a big deal about places they have either never been or heard from a buddy's friends sisters cousin. I shall see for myself. The 3.9 Google review does make me feel better. There some of the best hotels I've stayed at across the U.S that have a similar rating. You can't make everyone happy.

IMO-you might want to heed the advice of VN posters.

I doubt there will be many of them there.

Yeah, if it were Bowling Green, KY, I could see a crowd making the 1-hour trip. But since it's Bowling Green, Ohio, .... 7 hour drive ... nah. Mostly just proud parents and close friends. I expect about 152 of them to show up. :)
