Atlanta is far from neutral.

Football should be played outdoors too.

Equal number of tickets to competitors makes in neutral. Atlanta is more central.

How so? It is full of transients and graduates from every surrounding SEC school. If anything, it's about as neutral as you can get in the SEC states.

The only way I see it not being neutral is when UGA plays in the SECCG and the bulk of the UGA fans don't have to pay for hotels.

I'm a history nerd, especially about WWII, so I could legitimately spend 3 days in there. Worth every penny of the $19 price, and then some.

I minored in history in college (would have majored, but funds ran out) and am certified to teach high school history. Far and away my favorite history course I ever took was a WWII class taught over the summer by a former special ops guy. Have wanted to make time to visit the museum in NOLA ever since

The SEC should drop the Sugar Bowl for the Orange. Why should the SEC be relegated to the worst of the big
4 bowls. 5th now thatthe cotton is at Jerry world.

I wish we could just all stop being idiots about this (not calling you out, but just going along with your point).

Both are great cities. Both are great for hosting events, especially big football games. The SECCG has been in Atlanta for over 20 years, and it's probably not going anywhere any time soon.

I would say it's the worst too if my last memory of the sugar bowl was my team getting shite on by Utah.

Maybe I'm wrong about that. Maybe it's just the walk from the quarter to the Superdome. I was told to stay in the Quarter if I was going out and to avoid the area around the Superdome at night. Haven't seen it other than driving by on the interstate.




Jesus H. Christ, did you bring a fricking rape whistle too?

Ga Dome is average in an aesthetically pleasing sense, IMO.
