[QUOTE="GT Chillin' It, post: 162683, member: 1516"] I would first like to say welcome it will be great to have you (just make sure you are wearing white and gold (y)). The first thing to remember is that you will be in Atlanta on a Thursday which means rush hour traffic starts at 3:30 and goes until 7:00. Seems like a mute point but can make a big difference when planning. I would suggest getting in town early and sticking to side streets once you are here. Like others have mentioned if you want to see the band and team walk in just be on the north side of the stadium 2 hours before kickoff. It's not a bad tradition, neat to see, but IMHO not a necessity. I would recommend being in your seat at least 20 mins before kickoff though. The intro music and video is great and seeing the wreck lead the team on the field is simply iconic. For seating I would recommend pretty much anything in the north half of the stadium. It's gives you a great view of the jumbotron. Plus the atlanta skyline is a great backdrop. Tickets can easily be bought on stubhub and I think single game tickets went on sale today through the ticket office. As an earlier poster said I would not recommend the varsity. Stop in and get a frosted orange but the food is over priced and extremely greasy. The best burger in town is hands down the Vortex. If you choose to forego the pregame walk, I would recommend hitting up Sweetwater brewery at 5:30 for a "sampling", and then busting it down to the stadium for the game. I'll lay off commenting on good bars and tailgating except to say that since it's a Thursday night the tailgating scene won't be nearly as robust as a Saturday. The on campus lots don't open until 5 to the public but there are some off campus options. I havnt been to the atlanta bar scene in about 5 years so I don't want to steer you wrong. I hope you have a good time. [/QUOTE]
