In pretty much every city I visit I rove up and down the avenues, taking photos here and there and trying to capture some semblance of a scene from my memory. So while I was here in Nashville I decided to go out and capture some of the vibe of the place.
I was lucky enough to get a tour of the Memphis Grizzlies home stadium when there was hardly anyone around. The Fed-Ex Forum is an amazing facility. I think it looks like a great place to go watch games. The surrounding downtown area is also very cool… seems like it would be a great way to spend a night out. I’ve never been in Memphis on game night, but I’ll be sure to make that happen some time!
Also I got to go back in the locker room and meet some of the players. The guys were so nice and affable… I couldn’t get over it. I don’t know what I expected, but they were just all really young nice dudes. And then I saw this little underwater rehab/training facility. It was really wide and had this conveyor belt that ran under water. I asked why it was so wide and was told it was originally used for horse rehab! Crazy…hehe…
Memphis finally got a good pick in the draft… #2! That’s great for those guys… go Grizzlies! 🙂
