From Hardwood to Honky Tonks: Looking back on Syd and TP’s Wild Ride in Nashville
If you thought Sydney Colson and Theresa Plaisance were only going to town on the hardwood in Nashville during Athletes Unlimited Pro Basketball Season 4, think again, because The Syd and TP Show doesn’t stop, even during in-season action.
The pair took their unscripted buddy comedy series to Music City, where they explored everything Nashville had to offer. Along with the AU Pro hoops season, the four-part comedy series may have come to an end, but let’s relive the hilarity and take a look back on Syd and TP Take Nashville.
Episode 1: Tennessee Titans Game vs. Cincinnati Bengals
The series started with a bang as Syd and TP paid a visit to Nissan Stadium for a showdown between the Tennessee Titans and the Cincinnati Bengals. The two WNBA vets tried their hand at football, tossing the pigskin, and of course, scouting for some of the NFL’s biggest stars. This episode features a can’t-miss cameo by Nashville native Alysha Clark, and if you, too, would be left starstruck by Joe Burrow, you’ll find this pilot episode hilariously relatable.
Episode 2: Nashville Predators
Is any trip to Nashville really complete without catching a Predators game? Syd and TP don’t think so. In this episode, the comedic duo scores an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of Bridgestone Arena. From control room access to Zamboni rides, the episode is packed with hysterical moments we never knew we needed.
Episode 3: Boots & Line Dancing
“She’s a 3 but she’s wearing cowboy boots…She’s at least a 7.”
That’s just one invaluable piece of wisdom to be collected during episode 3, while Syd and TP shop for their perfect pair of western boots. Why do two professional basketball players need boots? For line dancing, of course. In this installment, the duo puts their new kicks—and their dance moves—to the test, proving that practice is highly overrated.
Episode 4: Cheerleading and Running Drills with the Tennessee Titans
For the grand finale, Syd and TP take their choreography skills to the next level with a visit to the Titans’ Cheer Squad. They tackle cheer stunts, test their throwing accuracy, and even suit up in pads for some pro-level football drills. This last installment is a must-watch, reaching new levels of entertainment as TP “gets her Trevor Lawrence on” at the Titans’ practice facility.
Syd and TP may have left Nashville, but something tells us their next adventure is just around the corner. From football drills to line dancing, the pair proved they’re down for anything—even if it means looking a little ridiculous along the way. If you haven’t caught all four episodes yet, now’s the time—trust us, the laughs are worth it.
