Anybody got any new years eve stories they would like to share? I do i do!! Me and my wife are homebodies, we always like the comforts of home so we dont get out much, a couple years ago i thought, heck, were gonna do something on new years, so i go to looking around and came across tickets to the Old Crow Medicine Show new years eve show in Nashville so i bought them and thought id suprise her. We got down there a few hours early so we decided we would call a cab,(weve never rode in a cab before lol) to take us downtown, he dropped us off a couple blocks from the ol Ryman and we walked around looking at downtown Nashville, it was pretty cold, so we decided to find a restraunt to eat, so i took the wife to hooters for her first trip..haha.. after a pitcher of margarita, we decided to walk on over to the Ryman and hang out a hour or so before the doors opened, we were the first ones there in line, they opened the door, and the guy frisked me, first guy in the door, and the first one to hold up the line, i had a small pocket knife and they took it away from me, i later found the guy and got it back, but anyway, concert was over so we decided to walk back to the motel, downtown was packed with people, but the further we walked the less crowded it became..we turned down one street, and i looked behind us and in front of us, and NOTHING!! Spooky feeling downtown Nashville, cold foggy nite, and not a soul around...as we walked up this street, Alicia was in front of me and i noticed a guy come out of one of the side streets, i thought, oh H#@L, its on...Alicia had her head down and didnt notice the guy, but we were on a collision course with him and i knew there would be a confrontation..about the time alicia looked up, he was there in front of her, ol homeless guy caught her off guard and says " Happy New Year can i have a hug?" I stepped in front of her and told the guy, "Happy new year to you, no, you cant have a hug!!!" lol, he says again, "happy new year!" im sure the guy was harmless, but new years at 2 am downtown nashville... anyway, now i know why i like the conforts of home and my pit bull and 9mm by my side.
