Best insider tip for Bridgestone Arena?

One of the best perks of the arena (if you find the right deal) is all-you-can-eat – and all-you-can-drink deals.  This actually came from a fan of another team visiting Nashville.

Otherwise, I would suggest you find parking spaces a little ways away from the arena.  Prepare to walk because the arena is situated to where it was designed to have others stroll downtown toward Bridgestone.  That is your best bet.
