    Go to Robert's after the show to let the traffic clear out. Go in the back door to avoid the line. Also, get a cheeseburger. You will thank me later.

    Many believe the Ryman is the Grand Ole Opry home. In fact, Nat'l Life & Accident Insurance Co. in downtown is the original home. NASHVILLEANDBEYOND.com
