Nashville, TN Sports Teams
Not only is Nashville the capital of Tennessee but it plays host to a number of pro and college sports teams. The top ticket is the NFL's Tennessee Titans who are currently in the process of building a brand new stadium that'll be located on the East Bank of the Cumberland River. The Titans, who competed as the Tennessee Oilers for the first two seasons in TN, have called Music City home since 1997 and currently partnered with the BetMGM Sportsbook.
The NFL isn't the only league with a professional sports team in Nashville. The NHL's Nashville Predators have been a fan favorite for years. Although they, just like the Titans, haven't brought a championship to the city.
You'll also find a number of soccer teams in Nashville including the MLS' Nashville SC. While the team has yet to play in the MLS Championship they've proven committed to the city, building a brand new 30k seat stadium at the Nashville Fairgrounds.
For minor league sports, the Nashville Sounds are a Triple-A affiliate for the Milwaukee Brewers competing at First Horizon Park. With no pro baseball teams in Tennessee, the Sounds are a fun option.

Memphis, TN Sports Teams
Memphis is a much smaller market than Nashville but still the second-largest in the state of Tennessee. Memphis sports teams are headlined by the NBA's Memphis Grizzlies playing out of the FedEx Forum in downtown Memphis and the NCAA's Memphis Tigers.
Championships have been just as hard to come by in Memphis as they have in Nashville. Since the arrival of Ja Morant, or at least when he's available to be on the court, Grizzlies games have become an exciting ticket. Whether you use TN sports betting promo codes on bet on the Grizzlies or not they're a fun watch when Morant suits up.
Minor league baseball is also a great ticket when visiting Memphis or just looking for a night out. The Memphis Redbirds, Triple-A affiliate for the St. Louis Cardinals, play at AutoZone Park.
