AIM Awards

Hey Husker Fans!

So, the AIM (Achievement In Marketing) Awards were last week and here is the award the Nashville Huskers won!

Here is what the brochure had to say about us:

Catagory: Special Event, Event Marketing - Event Under $100,000 Investment

Nashville Huskers

Team Lead: Emily Fay

Emily Fay loves football - and in particular, the Nebraska Huskers. Although he University of Nebraska has one of the winningest college football programs in history, she quickly learned that didn't matter in the middle of SEC territory. So Emily set out to create a community of local Husker fans who would gather to enjoy some football. The only problem was she had no budget, no support for the University, no place to meet and she didn't know any other Nashville Nebraskans. But Emily convinced a bar to turn off the SEC game and turn on the Nebraska game. At the end of the 2010 football season, the Nashville Huskers boasted a community of 361 members. Average attendance at the viewing parties was 102.

I am so blessed to be able to watch football with each and everyone of you every fall. You all are amazing!

Thank you for being so awesome!

GO BIG RED!

Breaking News: 2011-12 Location Announcement

THE NASHVILLE HUSKERS HAS A LOCATION SET FOR THE 2011-2012 SEASON!

Drum Roll Please.....






Will will be watching at the games at:




Red Rooster
1530 Demonbreun Street
Nashville, TN 37203-3112
(615) 457-2781

After calling lots and lots of places, and weighing the options (Size, Location, TVs, Parking, and Food & Drink Specials) Red Rooster quickly became a favorite. The best part is that we may not have to share the bar, if we do it would only be with one other team!!!

So make sure to pass this info on to all your friends in town!
