I live in Nashville and a great portion of our income is also from tourists.

I worked at Opryland USA for 5 years and most of my other jobs have been tourism or travel related.

It really is...take a vacation...leave your brain at home!

Though Opryland closed in 1998, people still show up here looking for it.

One of my favorite things, when working in a hotel was when people thought turn down service meant their room had been broken in.

Tourists here wear cowboy attire...middle of humid 113 degree Summer and tourons with cowboy hats and boots everywhere? or those umbrella hats. Oh and black socks with sandals.

They run around looking for stars to ogle, and as Nashvillians we don't notice stars, we want them to stay here, not the tourons. I have no idea if Whispering Bill is still around. Zero clue.

I could go on and on....
