    This was an amazing video and u gave the utmost respect to the city of Bristol. I work in Bristol TN and live in Blountville TN which r both a part of Sullivan County. The only mistake u made was the fact that u didn't come and eat at the best and most authentic locales owned establishment located in Bristol TN which is called The Angry 😠 Italian 🍕. The owner at one time had the 8th best pizza 🍕 in the world 🌎 according the National Pizza 🍕 Championship held in Italy 🇮🇹. I have been a server at The Angry Italian for the past 2 years and u will never find a better place to eat than there.

    Just finished reading a Stephen Hunter thriller named "Night of Thunder" set around the NASCAR race in Bristol, TN. The author's description of the stadium and the excitement around the race made me want to visit Bristol some day and see it all for myself. This Bristol tour video has given me a glimpse of what I might expect to see. Thanks.
