Pretty neat efi! Speaking of Predators, an interesting side note I found amusing. My daughter's bf plays for the Anaheim Ducks(well he is up and down to Syracuse but mostly up this year). When they play in Nashville, all the players on the opposing team have to pay a $2,500 entertainment tax/fee. For a player that is at the lower end of league pay scale, they in essence are working that day for nothing.

Did not know that Croozer, wonder if that is a city/state or league law? Which makes me wonder if this same tax is levied against NFL teams visiting the Titans?

efi, after some research I found an answer re:tax. It is a "Player privilege tax" and is only on NBA and NHL teams that play in the state. $2500 each time up to max of $7500 for every player eligible to play when their team visits the state. You can google as I don't know how to copy paste without a mouse on laptop

Interesting Croozer, wonder why they don't tax the NFL players. Good thing it is only the pro leagues that are taxed, when I tried out for the Louisiana Ice Gators in the ECHL in 2000 (sadly I was cut), we only made 400-600/week. Lol, that would have been a whole month of pay.
