[QUOTE="laoh, post: 635714, member: 1783"] Make sure to enjoy the Tech campus as well... well, it's not going to be as beautiful as some other major universities but it has improved a lot since I was there. The Clough Student Center is open and you can go to the top level where there is a terrace. Also, someone can chime in, but there are traditions that the band does before the game like playing at the library fountain (is the library still there? I know there had been construction) and marching down Bobby Dodd Way x-minutes prior to the game. Also Tech Square area around 5th St bridge gets busy on game days. Just look up where Georgia Tech bookstore @ Barnes & Noble is before the game and you'll be right there. Then cross into campus via crossing the 5th St bridge (which crosses I-75/85) and you'll hit Frat row. Follow the crowd towards the stadium. Since Beltline came up a lot, Piedmont Park is nearby and is nice for strolling through. You can rent those e-scooters, a la Bird, Lime, and like 3 other companies and scoot your way through Midtown, including Beltline if you don't want to walk. BTW, GT campus, including the stadium is situated right at the dividing point of where downtown and midtown are. If you're gonna be in downtown, then hop into Marriott Marquis... it's great architecture by John Portman, the interior is iconic, serves as one of the anchor hotels for the annual infamous Dragon Con, and it was in the second Hunger Games movie. The aquarium is nice... it's one of those things that a local may not really go but when there's a visitor from out of town, might go. Also another thing good for tourists... go to the top of the Westin downtown where there's the Sundial spinning restaurant. You can go up there for drinks. It was famous for being the tallest hotel in NA (not sure if it's still the case). And Ponce City Market off the Beltline is good to go. Some, including me, like Krog St Market better since it's smaller and less of a zoo. Also off the Beltline is Ladybird for good drinks. [/QUOTE]
