Wow. Go Sounds. I usually catch about a dozen or more Sounds games a year between going with friends and just catching an evening game by myself or with my wife. Greer Stadium is nice but the city has been trying for years now to get a much needed new stadium at either the old Sulfer Dell or downtown near the Titan's Stadium. (That play was not in Nashville. Just Saying.)
A neat Nashville Sounds story.
1. Three years ago, about a year after I got into pre-war collecting and found this forum, I was listening to the local sports talk radio station interview the new majority owner of the Sounds. Near the end of the interview the host brought up the fact that new owner was card collector and tried to talk (unsuccessfully) with him about it. After the token "my mom threw these cards out" statement from the host the new owner replied with something along the lines of "I don't own anything more recent than the Great Depression." He is from NYC and my jaw dropped when they restated his name...
Prepare to be as confused as I was. His name is Frank Ward.
Nope not that one.
