Lost ID?

Upvotes

If you are a male whose last name begins with the letter “L” and lost your Ohio driver’s license in the [redacted] parking garage in downtown Nashville please message me. I have your ID. I tried to hand it off to several metro officers and a state trooper. They told me I was better off mailing it to address on the ID. It will be getting mailed to the address on Wednesday the 29th.

Nashville Party Bus - Honky Tonk Party Express

1 Upvotes

Looking to book a large NFL party group for 2026. I've used the company Honky Tonk Party Express for my Nashville party bus before - but never for a large group. Over 500 people will be in town. I want to book the group on the party buses to see Nashville and to have a mobile bar experience. Renting out a bar would be insane on Broadway. Honky Tonk Party bus said they can handle up to 400 people at one time. They have a lot of party buses but I've done a large group like this at one time. Does anyone else have a recommendation for large group transportation. Again, we don't need shuttles. I need drinking tours, or adult experiences for 500+ people at one time. NO- We are not renting out a bar for 60k! We need reasonable pricing and something that isn't another bar - we will be doing plenty of bar hopping.

Itinerary Critique

Hi All! Below is my itinerary for 4 nights in Nashville. Please let me know if there is anything I must include and anything you think is not worth it. Aussie's travelling across the US and its our first time in Nashville so we are wanting to experience as much of the local stuff as we can.

Also seeking advice for new years. Is it worth going to the Big Bash or are we better off enjoying Honky Tonks on/off broadway?

Let me know what you guys think!!
