Memphis is way better than Nashville
Actually, it’s not. Nashville is safer than Memphis. In Nashville you can leave Bridgestone Arena and walk either way for multiple blocks and not have to worry about being shot or robbed. You go to Memphis, they pat you down and search you before entering Beal Street.
If it was in Memphis, where would you have it at? Fedx Forum? Have you ever seen the surrounding area around FedX Forum? It’s not great by any means. As a person that grew up in west Tennessee, Memphis is over rated, and it’s gotten worse over the years.

While I appreciate your input, I’m about 99.9% positive his post was sarcasm. Nobody actually thinks that shite

Have it at the Landers Center in Southaven. Doesn't hold quite as many people as the Fed Ex Forum, but the surrounding area is, admittedly, nicer.
Being serious, though... the FedEx forum would be a fine venue for the Tournament. And they'd clean up Beale and the surrounding areas prior to the tournament.
