re: Is there a Nashville-Memphis rivalry?

I've spent some time in both the Nashville and Memphis areas.

I've never felt more scared driving than in the Memphis area, road signs were very unclear. With that said, Memphis isn't as bad as people are making it out to be. While there are certainly some bad areas that I avoided, the Germantown area and just outside of the city are very nice.

Nashville was fine. A little expensive and overcrowded, but it was clean, weather was good, and the landscape was actually much better than I expected.

Would probably choose Nashville if I had to move back to one, but while Memphis wasn't great by any stretch of the imagination, it wasn't God awful either.
