    Me, obviously. A fellow Dawg fan that’s way too broke to spend a G on a ticket.

    hahaha... Tell her it's an important business relationship. You're trying to fix a bad impression from a Westin customer, bla bla bla. She'll understand.

    No offense taken. Hospitality industry is tough in that regards. I’m a chef there. I can only control what happens in regards to the food(to some extent). As long as it wasn’t food related.

    Not food related at all. Unless you designed the place or picked the furniture, I think you're in the clear.

    Enjoy the game! I haven't been to a championship game... I just can't justify the expense. I'd go in a heartbeat if free/face tickets fell in my lap somehow, though!

    That looks like the view out my office window too, pretty wild. I can't wait for the game, will be nervous/excited all weekend. Only bad part is the weather is putting a damper on our tailgate, just bought some all inclusive covered and heated tickets a short walk from the stadium instead.

    I’m hearing weather is supposed to be cold and possibly wet then you got President Trump coming to the game. That is going to put traffic in grid lock. Secret service is going to do what they will and have to do and that is shut shit down. Lol
    Good luck to anyone trying to get downtown later on Monday.

    I've also stayed at that Westin

    It seemed fine


    In regards to the game....it makes for a long day but get to your parking early and go enjoy any cfp sponsored events you can

    Hit the ticket gate when they open too in case there's a security issue etc


    I remember last year hearing about gridlock getting into parking lots and the stadium but I didn't have any of those issues thanks to being at the lot when it opened and the gate when it opened


    I met Herbstreit last year at the big dr pepper fan tailgate...nice guy

    The fan tailgate party also had the trophy so you could take a picture and Larry the Dr Pepper guy along with tons of food vendors and games and crap

    Another bowl game hack...I keep 4 or 5 plastic drink bottle caps in my jacket because a lot of these stadiums take the caps before selling you a drink... so I collected a coke, pepsi, Dr pepper, and water caps just in case

    I got to work that day starting at 7am so I’ll be good with parking. The issue is getting my wife downtown. I believe she has decided to take Monday off and may take public trans to get downtown. Think that maybe her best bet. I would love to take in some of the fan experience but, we shall see. Thanks for the advice and GO DAWGS!

    At the new stadium you really do not have to worry about that because most of the drinks are out of the fountain.

    When I was at the SEC championship game I paid $5 for a cup and it was free refills all game long.

    Team headed to Atlanta for media day tomorrow, check out these buses. :cool:

    I know for you Bama guys this might be insignificant. Some of us UGA guys have had people tell us to act like we’ve been here. Guess what? We basically haven’t. So I’m taking it all in.

    :jellydance:

    Congrats on the “sex trophy”. I’ve got a 5 year old boy and an 11 week old beautiful little girl. Money is tighter than ever with daycare plus my wife will be looking for a new job in March. So no way I can afford to go. If I were single I’d seriously consider forking out the dough to go all by myself if I had to.

    Well it’d be one of us Dawg fans if any of us so you’re out of luck anyway. :p

    Pick me, pick me! :D :pray:

    I’m just loving seeing the Georgia G next to the National Championship wording and logos. :thumbsup: Just hard to believe and hard to fathom that Kirby turned this program around so fast.
