Nashville has become known for its hot chicken recipes, served at well-known restaurants in the area. The Nashville Sounds even changed the name of the ball club for a series, becoming the “Hot Chickens” for a marketing promotion.
One hundred years ago, a hot chicken first came to town by the name of Nelson “Chicken” Hawks to play in the outfield and first base for the Nashville Vols. Listen to his “hot time in the old town tonight” story in this podcast episode!p - he was Nashville’s original “hot chicken”!
