Original Nashville Kats' home at Bridgestone Arena

The original Nashville Kats Arena Football League team played home games at the downtown arena now known as Bridgestone Arena (then Nashville Arena/Gaylord Entertainment Center) from 1997 through 2001. The franchise was a regular tenant at the arena and contributed to Nashville's late‑1990s sports scene. The team later relocated, and the arena continued to host a variety of indoor sports and events.
