Texas visitor coming to Athens...

...when the Vols come to town. Some buddies of mine decided last year to take a road trip to a big sporting event each year (it just started last year and we haven't ventured outside of SEC football). We were fortunate enough to see the Tigers win on a missed FG by Auburn in Death Valley last year - GREAT EXERIENCE!!

This year we decided that "Between the Hedges" would be the place for us to catch a game. We're driving up (the road trip is half the fun) Friday morning hoping to get the full experience of Athens and the University of Georgia. Please advise on places to grab a beer, where to tailgate and what to do after the game.

Thanks and Go Dawgs!!

Anyone??

there are simply too many places to name to give it any justice! Parking shouldn't be a problem and you can walk from one place to the other over the 4-5 block area. Start at North Campus, at the Arch, cross Broad Street and begin your tour!!!!!!!!!

GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Been a year or so since I've been back HOME and walked the downtown area, but I always enjoyed the "Nowhere" bar (cheap beer and lots of screens with sports). If you're out late and get the beer munchies I used to love getting "fries and feta" at "The Grill". Hometowners help me out if anythings changed with those places. But like the other guy said, you really can't go wrong with all the choices. It's hellova lot better and cheaper than Hotlanta!! Damn, I miss it there. :cry:

Broad street Bar and Grill. It's right across from the campus.

For game day before the game Blind Pig, little different BBQ than Texas brisket but pretty good, after the game walk out under the arches and take your pick, straight ahead or either direction down Broad street. Hope you enjoy your visit, welcome to Athens!
