Marv Levy Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I went to the Titans/Bills game a couple years ago (think it was 2016). You will not have any trouble finding Bills parties on Honky Tonk Row. There is a bar adjacent to Bridgestone Arena (Predators home), I forget the name of it, but that place was really rocking. Tailgates galore and lots of Bills fans everywhere. The locals were nice and really not much animosity towards each other. Really great city for NFL games and parties. Have fun and GO BILLS!! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) Based on 2019 when I was there....every bar will be taken over by Bills fans. Legitimately, every bar you go to, you'll see Bills fans.   It's a sea of blue downtown. I imagine it's a similar scene to when the Greeks invaded the Trojans....accept the Greeks are wearing blue Bills shirts.

Thanks, anyway…..been there, done that.  We used to have a place there (near the Green Hills Mall) and know it fairly well. If you don’t love the honky tonk and country music, The Gulch is an easy walk to the west. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 You guys will have a blast and historically Bills fans take over that city.  It’s a great destination especially when we are good to go to an away fun weekend game.  I hope all of you take over the cheering drowning out Nashville fans.  Once we are winning, and we will be winning by the half, the second half will be a Bills game as they will all leave.  That’s the difference between Bills fans and fair weather fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplebulldog Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I go to Nashville a ton. Was there to see the Stones Saturday. Will be going again for game 1) Far as Broadway its a tourist trap. Bars are fun and all a lot alike . Monday Afternoon I can assure you Honky Tonk Central will be packed with Bills Fans, all 3 floors plus the roof. Plus Jason Aldeans and Kid Rocks place. All wihtin a few bloack area on Broadway. Most of the joints on Broadway alike now  2) If you want to get away form the craziness of Broadway, Printers Alley is about two blocks form Broadway , more local places, not as toursity and crazy.  3) Looking for dinner, the Adults go to the Gulch area , the restaurant's are good. My favorite is the Whiskey Kitchen, also West end about two miles away near Vandy is also full of good restaurants and not a tourist trap.  Looking for a good brunch place Sunday or dinner Sat/Sun The Southern on 3rd Avenue 2 blocks form Broadway is exceptional, had brunch there on Sunday, my go to place for the last 5 years. .

AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 As others have said, you’ll have absolutely no issues finding a Bills bar on game weekend … a couple years back, I know there was a big one just off Broadway, but I can’t recall the name.  You might laugh at the mention of Kid Rock, but his bar on Broadway is off the hook. Enjoy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it will be a sea of blue along Broadway, the main honky tonk drag. Almost every place will have live music going, often a different band on each floor. It’s not ALL country music, but mostly, depending upon where you go. Tootsie’s is famous and has a rooftop, but it is literally surrounded by similar options. To be honest, it’s all a lot of fun but quite LOUD.  The Gulch is nearby and walkable from downtown a bit to the west. A bunch of bars and restaurants but not as country music oriented, so a bit refreshing. If you are downtown I have been known to duck into a hotel bar now and then to get away from the music/noise so I could hear myself think and regroup. The Hermitage Hotel has the Oak Bar which is VERY nice, and kind of a landmark.  Tons of dining options so I don’t know where to begin. Puckett’s downtown is a place I try to go each trip, but it gets crowded and probably involves a wait. For more of a fine dining experience we always enjoyed Etch. LOTS of options!  A couple things you might not expect from Nashville are all the Bachelorette parties trying to take over the town and all the Pedal Taverns riding around town chugging beer as they go. It’s quite the scene!  You should also be aware that there is a pedestrian only bridge that goes from downtown right over to the stadium. I missed that on my first game day there and took a much longer route with vehicle traffic. OOPS! Live and learn!  Again, Bills fans will be EVERYWHERE!  I don’t think you can help but have a great time @davspo I’ll miss having that on the schedule next year. It’s an easy road trip and a certain good time! I usually stay over by Vandy and Uber into town, but Uber is a bit less reliable since the pandemic so I’m staying right downtown on 3rd Ave, I think. Park once, and walk everywhere.   EDIT: I added one night at a Hampton Inn by Vanderbilt. I wanted to stretch the trip out a bit and by moving out of downtown I get to experience a different part of town……for HALF the price of a room in the middle of things.   .   .  Edited October 14, 2021 by Augie 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be a single this weekend and find there is usually a spot at the bar for a single. If I can look the bar tender in the eye and make small talk, I generally get pretty good service and tip accordingly. People sitting at a bar are generally pretty friendly, for some reason, from my experience. Go figure!  Rewatching the KC game and Groot looks better than I realized the first time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome time.  Tailgating in Nashville isn't really a thing and you can just walk to the stadium, so either just hang out at the bars or do the Nashville Bills Backers tailgate.   That game in 2019 was one of the most fun times I've ever had at a game. Literally Buffalo in a different city. Hope we recreate it again this year. I'm flying in from Austin on Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
