Best Place Near Campus for Big & Tall Gear?

[TripleTGT]

Coming to my first game at Bobby Dodd since the VT upset in 2009 - so looking forward to a great night under the lights on the flats!

But I have also managed to forget my GT hoodie - what're the options around campus these days for a 3XL hoodie? I recall the bookstore being pretty not great beyond 2X.

Got a car but stuck on business most of tomorrow before kickoff so will hopefully be able to scrounge something up when I land in a few hours.

Go Jackets!

maybe Too Tall will be able to tell you.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look good. It's worth a shot, but you're right about the bookstore, the random 3XL might be laying around but they run smaller in adidas. (Don't forget to check upstairs. I did pick up the alpha boosts upstairs in the bookstore for only $65, there was a size 14 after the Miami win). I would look mainly for college geared stores or check online at different places for an instore pick-up. I only got one hoodie since an ex stole my other, or else I'd let you borrow/have it. Best of luck.

Much appreciated TooTall! I should have some time tomorrow morning before my first meeting to hit the bookstore and hope I can track one down. Walmart is showing nothing for pickup and amazon is SOL for next day delivery too. I didn't know if they had anything more hiding around campus or Atlantic Station that'd be a possible hit. Sure I'll turn up something!

I may have a spare 3x white sweatshirt I picked up at Walmart back in 2008 for the cold as **** Thursday night whiteout game against Miami. If I still have and can find it you’d definitely want to wash it.

Hah I don't need it that badly - worst case a navy hoodie and GT hat will do the trick

I’m just having fun with you… I’m also trying to figure out what cold-weather gear I have for tomorrow

Surprising place to pick up nice GT Gear: TJ Maxx or Marshalls.

There's one down the road on Ponce De Leon across from Ponce City Market. Another option is the Howell Mill location right off of the I-75 before you hit the 75/85 connector. The one by Lennox usually has REALLY nice stuff.

Usually, there's plenty of the larger sizes. I picked up an Antigua GT quarter zip pullover last weekend at a TJ Maxx for $29. A nice surprise find while out looking for kitchenware.

I’ve got a video somewhere, but I was approximating the Stay-Puff Marshmallow Man that night! Ha! 3x sweatshirt over my dark blue heavy coat.

I reported you to the mods here. I think it’s against the rules to say you were out shopping for kitchenware.

Of all the annoying and offensive posts I've put out, the one where I mention kitchenware is gonna get me the ban hammer.

Sounds about right for me...

Is Engineer's bookstore still open on Marietta Street? Maybe they would have something

 

[HurricaneJacket]

Section 103 is doing some stuff around campus, perhaps they have something. Worst case call/email them to check

as hurricane said... Section 103 will be at the HBP around the Tech Green-- you could hit them up and ask them to bring 3x hoodies

No--closed quite a few years ago, unfortunately

 

[TooTall]

Hey-- I reached out to Steven with Section 103, and he said if you place an order online very soon--like within next couple of hours I guess-- and use the code TAILGATE, he'll bring it with him to their tent on Tech Green before the game tonight.
