When the more than one million visitors per year venture to 501 Broadway to see the Nashville Predators or their favorite artist perform, one of the first things their eyes are drawn to is a name affixed to the top of the venue.
Now, nearly seven years since the logo was first illuminated, Bridgestone remains prouder than ever to have their name on the building. As the arena prepares to celebrate the 20th anniversary of hosting its first show, the Bridgestone brand is now synonymous with one of the most recognized venues in not only the country, but the world.
In fact, it was seven years ago this month when the Predators needed a partner, that they reached out to a company already entrenched in the Nashville community with an idea.
