The Nashville Chamber of Commerce and Partnership 2020 have successfully bid on the world's largest sporting event. That's right, the Olympic torch will be carried all over the country until it lands right here in Nashville, Tennessee.
A lot of questions are currently left unanswered.
The entertainment will no doubt be American. But will Nashville's music industry rise to the occasion and put on a show never to be forgotten?
Two of world's largest brands are headquartered in and around Nashville. Nissan North America and Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey will be the headlining sponsors, but will the buzz of the Olympics bring even more business to Nashville?
The games and locations will take place throughout the Nashville metropolitan area. All finals competition will take place in LP Field, but the majority of the games will revive the Parthenon and it's front lawn. Centennial Park as we know it will be transformed into the Olympic Village. Will this help the current homeless people surrounding the park find temporary jobs and housing?
Tony Giarratana will continue his downtown rebuilding campaign in order to satisfy the millions of visitors. As for housing for the athletes, Nashville's unique Southern Hospitality will come into play. Residents of Belmont Boulevard will be asked to rent out their houses as a bed and breakfast for the month. Many of these houses are traditionally American with unique southern style, but will this be the perfect situation for housing the world's most incredible athletes?
Again, I am proud of Music City. Let the games begin!
