Going to the Ryman

Posted Sun, 11/02/2008 - 22:39 by Chris

We'll be headed to the Ryman in a couple of weekends to take in the late show at the Opry on a Saturday night.  Because of the Christmas Spectacular at the Opryland Hotel, the Grand Ole Opry is performing at the Ryman Auditorium in downtown Nashville.  The Ryman is often times considered the original home of the Grand Ole Opry, but it is actually the fifth location of the Opry.  In 1925 the Opry started at the National Life and Accident Insurance Company in downtown Nashville.

Nashville Predator's Game

As I tweeted from the NHL Predators game, thousands of people showed up for a party and a hockey game broke out! I never had an interest in going to a Preds game until a neighbor of ours offered us seats to a game one Saturday afternoon. Within fifteen minutes of sitting down in our seats we were hooked. There is fast action in the rink, intense fans (a shout out to Section 303), and constant entertainment during intermissions and breaks in play.
