For 644 a night, over 2K for three nights "With fees" the Gaylord is too pricey for me. There are a lot of cheaper options but do your research. The Opryland Inn, which is waaayyyy cheaper, has a shuttle to the Gaylord. These are current/today prices. Maybe in February they are a lot cheaper

$644 a night?!?!?  Wow.  We stayed there a few years ago, I think it was about $250 a night then.
This year we booked a hotel a short distance away for about $120 per night I think.

I am going but I only live about 45 minutes to an hour north of Nashville on the TN/KY border. Luckily I don't have to pay with my military ID. I just go to pick up a few calls and strikers and maybe something random. I have never gone into any of the other events. Me and my buddy actually got a hotel room about ten miles from there pretty cheap. This way we can have some drinks while we are down there and.dont have to worry about driving back.

So do you guys take any type of immune system booster before going to the convention? I hear that covid runs rampant there.

I probably will take something before and when I go.  That place is crowded and it's winter so odds are something will be passed around. I'll have to research what to take beforehand.

As a local who lives 20 minutes from Gaylord Opryland hope all y'all come and have a great time, spend
Lots of money but please go home and do not say to your family - we is moving' to Nashville.  We love ya but don't want ya permanent like.  We have the rating as the worst traffic in the country, crime is going up. Our little small towns - every piece of ground they can buy is being bulldozed and apartments galore going up or subs with postage stamp lots on Homes that start in mid to upper $300's and took 2 weeks to build   Farm ground is selling for $50,000 an acre up. Local traffic is yuck

Better yet when you leave after the convention each of y'all round up 3-4 families apiece from CA, OR,IL, MI, NY, NJ and take 'em with ya.  They all got plenty of money - let 'em drive up your real estate prices
And we'll just go back to quiet peaceful living.

Y'all come back now ya hear!  For a short visit

If I was a thief, one place I would stay away from would be the NWTF Convention, the reason why, knowing most all hunters carry firearms ...

Michigan! How can they afford those 300+ thousand homes? I hate paying for your expensive hotels and all the rip off city taxes! I would never live in the Nashville area. May visit every 5 years for a couple days then head home to my quiet, rural, Michigan. There is know way I would pay that type of money for a home. The Nashville area needs zoning and population control.

I will be there... booth 3102

I'll have a ton of strikers and Buster Halford will be in my booth with a while lot of pot calls, and maybe some special new things!

It's a good place to see some of your call builder friends and maybe pickup a call or 2...  I agree with tal the call room is a good place to spend your time ....I guess you could say money racket, but what an't anymore .... LOL... Nothing cheap anymore ....IMO
Unicoi, greatest show on Earth. I suggest everyone check it out!
