Travel with Big Al Owens bragging about Nashville S.W.A.T. truck 2013-03-26 - Nashville, TN - Photo by Innocent Bystander. Big Al Owens, the Big Rig Trucker & Travel Writer is definitely out as a Nashville Predators fan. At a recent game he posed with the Nashville Metro Police S.W.A.T. truck - to show one of the few of the same differences between Davidson County, TN, Big Al's current hometown, and Adair County, KY, his Real Hometown.

But they'll never be the Number 1 county in Tennessee, and we are. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
