Well, it's true. NOLA is an hour from BR. What's an hour from Knoxvegas and what is there to do when you get there?

Asheville, NC and Chattanooga are both 1 1/2 hours away. Nashville is 2 1/2 and the ATL is just shy of 3. East TN and Western NC are arguably the most scenic land scapes east of the Mississippi river. And it sits in our back yards. You can go hunt bear, hit class 5 rapids, and visit the most visited National Park in America or go to some great music venues and fine dining, bars/clubs, sporting events, etc.

Different strokes for different folks

To word it like there isn't anything to do in or around Knoxville is laughable.

According to LSU fans, NOLA is the best city in America and nothing else comes close. You're wasting your time trying to prove otherwise.

What's there to prove? You obviously don't like NOLA, many of us love it. If you don't like it, then don't go. It's not frickin rocket science that people have different opinions.

Forbes: New Orleans is America's fastest-growing city

NEW ORLEANS -- Population-wise, New Orleans is the comeback city of the country. Forbes Magazine just ranked the Big Easy the fastest growing city in America since 2007. It had a long way to go after losing more than half its nearly 500,000 residents after Hurricane Katrina struck in 2005. Forbes credits two things for the city's rapid growth, a partial rebound effect and what is called a "striking economic revival."

There is now expected to be another wave of people flocking to New Orleans when the new University and Veterans Administration Hospitals open over the next few years in the city's emerging Bio-Medical Corridor. "We're trending in the right direction," said Hecht. "What's happening here is not just a population rebound that was going to happen, regardless. But people are voting with their feet because of the opportunity that you have in the new, New Orleans."

"I think you will see a lot of job opportunity at a high level, a high salary," said Rigamer. "You'll see people coming to fill those jobs." "The Bio-Medical Corridor certainly could attract more people from the suburban areas," said Plyer. "That's part of creating those amenities that make the city the attractive place to live rather than the suburbs."

I see. I knew there was some construction going on. I didn't know it was THAT extensive. The stadium has been around forever. It probably needed a facelift. Bet it'll be nice when completed.
