The ATL airport is one of the most consistently bad airports I've been through. Always insanely busy, long lines, frequent delays, etc
Am pretty sure ATL is rated one of the best airports in the world. It also has the most flights, which is convenience for you. Go look at how many flights come in and out of birmingham.

I have never seen someone seriously argue B-magic over ATL

I just now got to this thread and have only read a few replies....did someone actually suggest Birmingham?
Dear Lord...I dont' even know where to begin ripping that idea apart.

Well, nvm, we have one of those on North Avenue. shite, lets just paint over the shitstains on that field in play it in Sanford-West?
Better idea: we build the new stadium at Piedmont, tear down BDS, and then charge Tech rent to host their pee-wee games there on Thursday nights.

Definitely not Birmingham, but I don't see why it can't be rotated between 3-4 cities.

because its centrally located between teams who actually make it to the SECCG

Cause you do that and you'll lose ATL to the ACC and it's already very successful in ATL. There is also something to say about continuity

Because once it leaves ATL, it will never be able to return. The ACC will sign a 20 year deal with the quickness.

All of this arguing is moot considering the SEC is happy with ATL and isn't gonna change anytime soon especially with Arthur-world in the works
Pretty much this

And we have now reached the crux of the issue

Even if they only fill half of it the ACC would hold on with a death-grip to ATL

You think with the stadium in Piedmont some of the folks that live across the street with the colorful flags hanging in front of their homes would come
They would probably cheer pretty well and louder than the current situation

Well its settled then. Move it from Atlanta.

1) LSU is the only one inconvienced and they have the Sugar Bowl
2) Was in JAX and now it's in Charlotte and they'd DIE to have ATL
