The McSkunkville Courts · Nashville, United States

In Nashville they say hello twice and mean it once — McSkunkville fixes the ratio. These days, Nashville travelers stop at the Quick Stop when the highway brings them through, and The record shows: Nashville belongs to the story now.

The style of play is pure Skunkian: fast, clean, and honest to the whistle. Nobody flops in McSkunkville. The doctrine forbids it.

College scouts have come through more than once, and the kitchen tables of the town still talk about who almost went pro. Around here, 'almost' is a badge, not a wound.
