Re: Smoking Laws in Tennesee?
Mr. Hog,
was just in Nashville over Thanksgiving (that's where my 'people' are from)... While anti-smoking laws there aren't as tough as California, they are not as lax as South Carolina standards, either.
Some places that allow cigarette smoking don't allow cigars (not trying to start any flame war... just reporting the news like Connie Chung). So a few phone calls will go a long way (as mentioned above).
Uptown's is an excellent B&M if you need a few hours of down time, but it would be a pretty solid distance from the Arena.

Bridgestone is a nice place to watch a game... Been there to see the Preds four or five times.
Must see in the area: Tootsie's Orchid Lounge, the bar made famous by Hank Williams Sr when he was with the Grand Ole Opry in the 40's and 50's. When they couldn't find Hank at showtime, someone had to go round him up from Tootsie's and prop him up on stage. Tootsie's is on the opposite corner from Bridgestone, and is the premier honky tonk bar.

Have fun, and tell Nashville I said hey.
