Nashville Huskers - Nebraska @ Kansas State - Nashville, TN

May I tell you how much I love hanging out with Cornhusker Fans! The Nashville Husker fans are so great, truly wonderful people and we always have a good time.

I was so impressed with our turn out for a Thursday night game that was on ESPN. We had about 70 show up! Way to go HUSKERS!

I don't know about the rest of you, but I was really worried about this game, I thought it was going to be a tough one. But I was VERY happy with the outcome! GO BIG RED! This is going to be a really fun season.

This week we have TEXAS...EEK! It is also Red Out Around the World week! So make sure you show up at the Frayed Knot in RED!!!






OK so here are the details for this weekend!

Kickoff is at 2:30 pm get there early to get a good seat. Michigan is playing at the same time so we are going to have to split the bar with them. We get the big screen and sound, we can sit in the main dining room and in the billiards room (there will be more TVs in there and it will be cleared out).

T-SHIRTS will also be on sale! Bring you $10 and place your order!

WEAR RED! BE LOUD!

Nashville Huskers - South Dakota State @ Nebraska

Ok, ok, so I took a couple of days off... Things have been crazy at work, and well in life in general. I am kind of glad that it is a bye week this week. And just an FYI we will be at the Frayed Knot on Thursday for the Big 12 opener against Kansas State! See you there!!!

We had yet another solid turn out for the SDSU game. The total count came to 95, which is still larger than any event we had last year. And wow did we play poorly! But it was still great to spend some time with the Greatest Fans in Nashville!

Cousins!

The Lone SDSU Fan in the bar...

We are accepting of all fans! Even Ohio State...well maybe just this year ;)

As if I need to be reminded about how short I am...

That's right Erin, cover up that UK nonsense!

I am so proud to be a Nebraska Fan. You would not believe how many times I get stopped, honked at, waved at, I've even been given big thumbs up on I-65, from other Nebraska Fans here in Nashville. People are always shocked when I tell them how many people show up each week, and frankly I am always a little surprised too!

So keep passing the word around our group. Get all of your Nebraska peeps to get to a game. It really is a little slice of Lincoln at 204 21st Ave S, Nashville, TN!

Go Big Red!

Game Day

So often I feel like I over commit my self to doing just way too much. The problem is that, for the most part, I love all my "extra" stuff...

My very favorite is game day! I started Nashville Huskers/Nasvhillians for Nebraska (i really need to choose one name and stick with it) for purely selfish reasons. I had lived in Nashville just over two year and was about to go into 3rd football season and really really wanted to watch the game with some other Nebraska fans. I knew there were some around I would see bumper stickers and license plate covers all across town.

So, stalked people (kinda, not really, but yeah) on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter...HuskerSpot...you name it to find other Nebraska fans in town. I set our first game for the '09 VA Tech game. I had 20 people say that they would show up, I was ecstatic...I was also SO SO SO nervous that these 20 people were not going to show up and I was going to look like a fool to the bar. I pretty much wanted to puke as Casey and I were walking in.

To my shock and amazement the bar was already full of Nebraska Fans...85 showed up that day! I instantly felt better, and knew that this was something special. Little did I know, at that point, what a defining moment that was for me. In planning these events I have discovered my passions, talents, skills and abilities.

The 2009 season ended strong, there were a few bumps in the road, but you know I learned from them in order to make the 2010 season all that much better!

This group always seems to surprise me!

I had made a goal for myself at the beginning of the season. I wanted a game with at least 100 people there. That goal was reached in the first game of the season, with 130 people. I think I was in a bit of shock...I saw very little of the game, because I was mixing and mingling it was AWESOME. The next game was 120 (it was a morning game, fewer people attend those)...

I am just so happy! It is fun to see the success of such a great group. The Nashville Husker fans are amazing, and so much fun to be around.

We are also becoming a hot commodity! I've had 2 bars contact me this week to see if I was interested in switching locations... :)

It is funny...before 2 weeks ago it was a challenge to get a bar in SEC country to give up a SEC game for a Nebraska game, now it seems like they are more than willing, if I bring the club.

The Frayed Knot has been really good to us, so we are staying there...however it is always prudent to re-evaluate these things every year...

Today the Nebraska Cornhuskers take on the Washington Huskies at Washington. People are calling for this to be a close game. I really hope not, but I would like for it to be a good one! If you are in Nashville and are looking to watch the game come on out to the Frayed Knot at 2:30 today, I am expecting a good turn out!

Nashville Huskers - Idaho @ Nebraska - Nashville, TN

What another awesome turn out at the Husker Watch Party here in Nashville! We had 120 for an 11:30 am game, with major technical difficulties. I was so impressed that everyone stuck with us through the Internet Radio portion of the afternoon! You are all troopers for sticking with us! At least we got to see the last half of the game.

Goal for the season is to get the FL fan converted to the Huskers... I think we can do it!

We will be back at the Frayed Knot (204 21st Ave S, Nashville, TN) on Saturday, 9.18.10, for the Nashville Huskers, Nebraska watch party. Kick off for the Nebraska @ Washington game is 2:30. See you there!

GO BIG RED!
