Would you kiss a catfish for Nashville Predators tickets on opening night? Here's your chance

Winning tickets to a Nashville Predators game is as easy as kissing a catfish.

On Sept. 27, the Predators are hosting a "catfish kissing" event at Odie's Bar in Nashville. From 1 p.m. to 2 p.m., the first 10 fans to kiss a live catfish at the bar's catfish kissing booth will receive tickets to Nashville's opening night against Columbus on Oct. 9.

Additionally, all fans who kiss a catfish during the event will be entered to win a 2025-26 Predators team signed jersey.

Fans can choose between one of five catfish on display, each one with their own "dating profile."

Fans who kiss a catfish will be joining an exclusive club, including former Tennessee Titans offensive lineman Taylor Lewan and current Titans quarterback Will Levis, both of whom kissed a catfish at Predators playoff games.

Kissing catfish is a new twist on an old Nashville tradition - throwing catfish on the ice at Predators games began in 1999 as the team's response to a Detroit Red Wings tradition of throwing octopus on the ice.
