Nashville is set to host the Super Bowl in 2030, coinciding with the opening of a new domed stadium.
Nate Bargatze is building a legit theme park called Nate Land in Nashville, aiming to fill the void left by the shuttered Opryland.
Nate Bargatze used NIL (appearing on ESPN College GameDay and putting the recruit in his movie) to help flip top QB recruit Jared Curtis from Georgia to Vanderbilt.
Nate Bargatze is colorblind and during his SNL hosting stint he kept reading co-star Heidi Gardner's lines because he couldn't distinguish the colors on the script.
Nate Bargatze partnered with theaters to offer reduced-price 'Nate Rate' tickets for his movie The Breadwinner to make it accessible for whole families.
Travis Kelce is now a minority local investor in the Cleveland Guardians — his childhood baseball team. Growing up on Cleveland's East Side, riding the Rapid to games, keeping score with his dad — this investment is his way of cementing Cleveland roots forever.
Nate Bargatze is colorblind. During his SNL hosting stint, he kept reading his co-star Heidi Gardner's lines because he couldn't distinguish the black and green ink on the script. He couldn't figure out why nothing made sense — until he finally realized what was happening.
Nate Bargatze is building a legit theme park in Nashville called Nate Land — roller coasters included. Inspired by losing Opryland as a kid and Nashville's explosive growth, he sees it as a chance to make lasting family memories. He's just waiting for someone to tell him it can't happen.
Travis took Taylor Swift to Cleveland for the Cavs-Knicks playoff game — his way of sharing the sports world he grew up loving. The Knicks rolled, Taylor ended up in a Knicks jersey for a photo, and Cleveland sports radio said she 'got baptized.'
Travis Kelce insists his viral courtside beer chug was completely intentional and dignified: no spills, no crushed can, pinky up. Jason agrees it was an 'elegant chug' — the right amount of energy to get the crowd going when the Cavs were down 10.
Tina Fey opens by casually dropping that she killed Steve Carell's character in Season 1 of The Four Seasons before explaining what the show is: three couples seen only four times a year, wine by a lake, middle-aged people in nice sweaters. Aspirational, relatable, and occasionally marriage-threatening.
Athletes dominate SNL hosting because they're used to pressure, they take direction without ego, and they walk in without the weight of a Hollywood reputation. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler agree: some of the greatest sketches have come from athlete hosts. The bar feels lower, which frees everyone up.
Tina Fey's first Emmys: she wore a gown to the red carpet while doing Weekend Update with Jimmy Fallon, nobody recognized her, and then someone made her put on her glasses — at which point she was promptly told to move along. She found it surreal and exhilarating.
Touring stand-up is summer camp: every city, every week. Nate Bargatze explains the mental prep behind every show — keeping the right people backstage, knowing when your mind starts to wander mid-set, and how to pull yourself back before the audience notices.
Nashville is hosting the Super Bowl in 2030 in a brand-new dome — and the whole city is buzzing. Nate Bargatze already locked down a suite. The Predators arena already shows Nashville can do entertainment spectacle; the NFL dome is just the next level.
In 2004-2005, a young Nate Bargatze watched Dave Chappelle walk into a near-empty room at the Boston Comedy Club, still in TV makeup, and casually destroy a crowd of 8 people. It set the template: see the path, then follow it.
Nate Bargatze went on ESPN College GameDay and promised top QB recruit Jared Curtis a role in The Breadwinner — and it worked. Curtis flipped from Georgia to Vanderbilt in one of the wildest NIL deals in recent memory.
Tina Fey sets the record straight: she was at MSG with Tracy Morgan, two empty seats appeared, and suddenly Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner sat down. She had no idea about the manspreading controversy until the next day — and besides, God is fair: his legs took the front, her 'big old can' balanced things out in the back.
