For the last 31 years, Nashville Scene - the free newsweekly covering Nashville entertainment, arts and local politics - has published their Best of Nashville issue. In 2019's edition, the Nashville Predators organization was featured six times across a variety of Writers' Choice and Readers' Poll categories.
Smashville's favorite pup was the writers' choice in the Best Dog category. Smash, also known as Lord Banner of Smashville, not only brightens the day of players and staff, but also countless Preds fans who stop by the Predators Foundation area during games. After visiting with Smash, those same fans may find themselves belting writers' choice Best Song to Sing at a Preds game, "Let it Be." Any time a Predators goal is challenged, over 17,000 phone flashlights light up the arena as the fans offer up a spirited rendition of the Beatles tune.
