[QUOTE="BCJacket, post: 634344, member: 2332"] Night games under the lights at Bobby Dodd Stadium are glorious. Don't know where you're sitting, but definitely find your way to the west stands or north stands to get a view of the Downtown/midtown skyline. Probably the best view of the Atlanta skyline there is from anywhere. Others have mentioned the Varsity. The worlds largest drive-in. It's worth walking by/through at least. Fast food that hasn't changed much in 70 years. Objectively, it's not great food. But I, and most of us Tech folk, love it because it tastes just like game day with our Dads/granddads always did. Chili dogs, onion rings, frosted orange (kinda like an orange julius), chili steak (burger) with pimento cheese are the big hits. I swear they have the best Coca-Cola in the world. Something about the ice or the syrup mix. Coke world headquarters is a block away. The fried peach pies are always a good treat. Waffle House is also a thing for us. But there's plenty of higher class food options around the area as well. Tech's campus is nice, but there's nothing really notable except the stadium. Midtown Atlanta, across the connector, is where the more interesting stuff is at. While you're in town, the Aquarium, World of Coke and College Football Hall of Fame are the big attractions. If you're a fan of food (and a little adventurous) I'd suggest checking out Buford Highway. It's our immigrant neighborhood. But unlike other cities the ethnicities are all geographically intermingled. ([URL]https://www.foodandwine.com/travel/restaurants/buford-highway-atlanta-best-restaurants[/URL]) The Buford Highway Farmers Market is huge and very cool. If anybody asks you "What's the good word?" correct response is "To Hell With Georgia". [/QUOTE]
