The game is simple.
Find the Cash Nash hides money throughout the city. And well, finders, keepers.
In just a few short days, the instagram account will celebrate one year of hiding cold, hard cash across Music City. In just a year, they’ve amassed 85,000 followers on Instagram.
So what’s their deal?
What is Find the Cash Nash?
The instagram account was started July 16, 2024 and that same day it posted their first $50 “cash drop.”
The person who hides the cash rarely shows their face, just a video of them taping the cash to poles, under signs or outside parks in neighborhoods across the city. Whoever gets there the fastest gets to keep the money no strings attached.
There’s no identifying information on the account except a business email linked to Win-It Entertainment, an entity described as a virtual entertainment company specializing in online events.
Nashville isn’t the only city with an account. According to Instagram, there are accounts in Tampa Bay, Austin, Atlanta, Houston and Indianapolis.
Where has cash been hidden so far in Nashville?
In the last year, the account has hidden cash about 100 times.
The very first drop of cash happened on the back patio of Legends Corner bar across from the Assembly Food Hall and the National Museum of African American Music.
Since then, the “cash drops” have been all over the city.
Cash has been taped to the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge, outside Vanderbilt’s baseball stadium and on poles along Broadway. They’ve taped cash to The Truck Stop in Donelson, under benches in Shelby Park Shelby out East, along a white picket fence in Germantown and outside the Mall at Green Hills.
