I am 60 yrs old. UGA class of ‘83. Grew up in New Jersey and my step dad came home one day and announced that he had a new job in Atlanta. I had to move July, 1978, after 11th grade. Moved to Roswell and attended Crestwood High School, which is now Sandy Springs Middle School. I had preconceived prejudices against the south. I was mostly wrong.
Nicer homes, nice people, and pretty girls, but college football? Who cares! Well, that changed when I got to Athens. More than a game, it’s a way of life. Then, Herschel came my sophomore year, and y’all know the rest. Forty years later, both my sons are UGA grads. I lived in the all-male Russell Hall. They both lived in Creswell. Used to party at places called the B&L Warehouse, O’Malley’s, the Mad Hatter, T.K. Harty’s, and the 5th Quarter.
Times have changed but my love for the Dawgs has not!
