White Wolf was based here so there used to be a very strong WoD presence. No idea if that's still true. I think they kind of aged out of gaming.
There's a strong medieval larping and foam swordplay gaming culture, too. I'm not really plugged into that scene, but PBS did a special on it.
It's nice because all the /tg/-friendly weirdos in the South kind of congregate here, so there's a higher concentration than you'd otherwise have. I suspect that the other southern cities are similar.
