Nashville is one of the most unique cities in the world. We’re known for our southern hospitality as well as our contributions to the world of music, art, and pop culture. But not many people know that one of Nashville’s most unique spring traditions doesn’t have to do with any of these things. The Iroquois Steeplechase is a horse race that the whole family can enjoy, but it’s so much more than that. It’s a great chance to get out, eat some great food, watch the horses, and of course, wear the most ridiculous hat you can possibly find.
