OK, the more I think about it the more nuts that excuse is. Every Georgia player was in Atlanta the week before. Why would they make a mural for the SECCG welcoming the players to the city that they were in the week before? Nobody would do that.
But if they did, they would not put two things, the Varsity and Waffle House that they have in Athens. Nobody would do that.
Typically, an artist commissioned to do an Atlanta mural for the SECCG would put MBDome on there. And centennial park or the aquarium or coke or the Capital dome or the hall of fame. The cesspool is an oddity but I'll let that slide considering the client. But to include two sporting facilities but not the MB in a mural for the SECCG defies belief.
But there are many interstates in Atlanta, but they chose 85. And for food, they included waffle house and the Varsity, which CGC claimed, while not including Chic-fil-a.
The excuse overwhelmingly doesnt add up.
I like that they realize they need a excuse, because it confirms that they realize this is an own goal embarrassment and that also means they recognize that GT's ATL 404 recruiting is a threat.
