We're sorry. Actually, no we're not.
Old Hickory couldn't even come up with its own identity, just slapped the nickname of a dead president on everything. Your town exists because DuPont needed a gunpowder plant near Andrew Jackson's Hermitage, and now you're stuck explaining that connection to every confused tourist who expected actual history instead of a DuPont company town with delusions of grandeur.
Nothing says 'charming small town' like being a corporate experiment from day one. DuPont literally designed your village like a human terrarium, complete with different houses depending on your rank at the plant. Even after the factory wound down, you're still clinging to that identity like it's something to be proud of.
Your biggest claim to fame is a comedian who grew up in the shadow of a DuPont plant. That's it, that's your entire contribution to American culture. One guy who makes clean, wholesome dad-style jokes about his Tennessee upbringing, and the best thing you did for him was give him material.
You're not even a real town, you're just Nashville's awkward suburb that got stuck between a river, a lake, and some corporate housing. Your main drag is Old Hickory Boulevard, which is just a road people use to get somewhere else, and your biggest landmark is a dam that exists to make other places more convenient.
