FWIW, the wife gets chili dogs and rings...so as a family we are covered.

I do like the Varsity but enjoyed Junior's back in the day much more.

...I miss Junior's.

...I miss Junior's.

Dress One, Side, Sweet Tea. Best $2 meals I ever had.

Juniors closed the April prior to my daughter starting at GT.

Even though it was not the North Ave Juniors, Tommy & Co. were still running it.

I was very sad that my daughter missed out on this GT tradition.

went to homecoming in 2008.....Tommy remembered me and the rest of "our gang" from 25 years previously. He is one of a kind.
I can remember going to Juniors more than once without enough money to pay for a meal.....they just took the receipt and filed it...and I paid up the next time.

Top two ten cheese it.......

1. Off campus parking- private lots to the east of campus don't require a GTAA preprinted or digital pass.

2. Buy tickets before you go. Too many counterfeit tix on the street to risk a bad road trip.

3. Sit with Clemson fans. It's more fun for uou and us.

4. The varsity has a non-negotiable shot clock. If you cannot be in a bathroom within 30 minutes, welp... I do not eat there pre-game. Stop at the one on Jimmy Carter blvd on the way home.

Juniors. Deserves it's own post. Damn shame how the Hill screwed over Tommy. IIRC, they closed off sidewalks leading to Juniors and caused a financial strain on the owner.

GT football should have a halftime ceremony to honor Tommy and Miss Anne. We took the kids before it closed. Glad we did.

Talk about salad days but we loved it at the time. Is that building still there?

Long gone, but still family housing apartments there:

I talked with a former employee when I was down there in '08 (he now works for the alumni association) He said Juniors / Tommy had been struggling for awhile in the new location.......speculated it was only a matter of time before he threw in the towel.

New location is harsh. You have to know it's there and there's really nothing around the tower that garners student traffic.

Sure, it's Juniors, but you'd be surprised how limited the communication of tradition to some students can be.
