Twitter artist designs Nashville Predators jerseys for hypothetical 'Dolly Parton Night'
What's more Nashville, Dolly Parton or the Predators?
A Twitter user is combining the two ... and the person got the attention of the Preds.
User @arsonandhockey on Twitter, is also known as Corwin Dickson. In a tweet pinned to the top of their account, they describe themselves as, "an artist currently looking for freelance work in the realm of hockey."
Dickson tweeted Wednesday suggesting a new themed night for the Nashville hockey team.
The Nashville predators should do Dolly Parton appreciation night and wear jerseys with fringe

"The Nashville predators should do Dolly Parton appreciation night and wear jerseys with fringe."
Then, Dickson posted sketches of what those jerseys should look like.

Similar to the team's away white breakaway jerseys, the Dolly Parton jerseys add a signature fringe — and a blonde wig on the Predator.
Dickson told the Tennessean that the inspiration came from a dinner conversation with their family, but that "you have to fringe to get the feeling of it."
The tweet garnered enough attention to earn a response from the Preds official Twitter account.
Omg

"Omg," the Predators account tweeted.
Short and sweet, but they didn't deny the idea.
The Preds later added to their comment with a reference to viral internet meme, *chef's kiss.*
This is just… *chefs kiss* https://t.co/cFj32bdvkM
