Follow me on The Twitter for updates and pictures from the road and Atlanta this weekend.
Earlier this year when I drove to Miami for the Orange Bowl, I gave you a checklist of things I had to do while on that trip. I accomplished all of them. Here's the checklist for this weekend's trip to Atlanta:
Eat
- Dreamland BBQ in Tuscaloosa or Birmingham
- Zaxby's
- Krystal Burger
- The Varsity (What'll ya have!?)
Drink
- Taco Mac
- 5 Seasons
- Clontz's Tailgate
- Atlanta VTAA Tailgate
- Communion at 6:30 p.m. Saturday
See
- At least five photos with someone dressed up for DragonCon. Me: Drunk, s--t eating grin, giving a thumbs-up. Them: Annoyed. Or a photo with Shatner.
- Friday Night: Braves Game
- Sunday: Float the river or Nascar night race (or both?)
- This morning I'll embark on the 13-hour drive to Atlanta. The blog will be pretty much unattended until Tuesday morning. Though I might throw together some quick thoughts on the game Sunday.
- W2W4 vs. Alabama will go up today at Noon EDT.
- Clark's NCAA 10 simulation will be posted Friday morning.
- The game thread will appear Saturday at Noon EDT.

Living In Atlanta...
Varsity is a must for gameday. just make your stomach is prepared!
Might be able to pick up some cheap tix to GT v Jax State on Sat at 1PM if you want a preview of an upcoming opponent.
For after the game, Virginia Highlands is relatively close and open till 2AM for celebrating (or drowing).

I know you already have a BBQ place on your eat list, but my suggestion is Whitt’s BBQ. Whenever im in AL I have to get some to take home. The white BBQ sauce is seriously something special.
Also, Krystal’s is a Tennessee-born chain. I understand if you dont get it in VA though. (I have to admit White Castle is pretty much the same thing but better in my opinion).
Zaxby’s you’ll find throughout the south too, seen them in KY and TN.
