"Another country music star-branded tourist trap is set to descend on downtown Nashville this week, as Blake Shelton’s Ole Red will open to the public tomorrow. The 26,000-square-foot, five-story behemoth, owned and operated by Ryman Hospitality, is just the latest in a flood of recent and forthcoming bar openings from the likes of Dierks Bentley, Jason Aldean, Florida Georgia Line, and John Rich. A third outpost of Ole Red (with the first in Shelton’s hometown of Tishomingo, Okla.) is slated to open in Gatlinburg, Tenn. in 2019." - Matt Rogers
