Things are getting saucy between the Nashville Predators and the St. Louis Blues.
Ahead of Sunday's Game 3 - a 3-1 Predators victory - St. Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson and Nashville Mayor Megan Barry agreed to a friendly wager, putting a collection of local delicacies on the line.
If the Blues are victorious, Barry has agreed to present Krewson with a gift basket including a country music compilation album, an assortment of local BBQ sauces and rubs, Nashville-made Goo Goo Clusters, and a special Predators jersey.
Meanwhile, if the Predators are victorious Krewson will package Barry with a gift basket containing a blues compilation album, BBQ sauces and rubs from the St. Louis area, St. Louis-made gooey butter cake, and a special Blues jersey.
Of course what's a wager without a little trash talk?
"The Preds are primed and ready to go all the way to the Stanley Cup Final, and as much as I like Mayor Krewson and her great city, they are going to be singing the blues this year," said Barry.
"There's only one thing I can say - let's go Blues!" said Krewson.
Next to the goodies above, both the Nashville Predators Foundation and the St. Louis Blues Foundation have agreed to donate $1,000 to the winning city's music museum.
After Sunday's win, the Predators have a 2-1 advantage.
