Oklahoma and ice hockey don’t exactly go together, but they did Thursday on the plaza outside Bridgestone Arena in downtown Nashville.
The Nashville Predators hosted a fun event full of games, music and food to help collect money for the American Red Cross’ disaster relief efforts.
Fans who donated $25 or more were entered to win fun prizes such as autographed hockey pucks, Preds’ ticket vouchers and to Nashville Sounds games.
