'What'll You Have?'

ATLANTA -- Lunch hour at the famed Varsity in Atlanta came early Friday -- with a whole lot of Georgia Tech fans eager for free hot dogs. Here I am with a couple of them (as you can probably guess, the Tech people made me wear the wig).



Would you believe the media actually showed up?



And finally, me with all the smiling, happy and well-fed full Jackets fans.



Many thanks to The Varsity and 790 the Zone in Atlanta for helping me to pull it off.

Darn you Stewart, why didn't you post somewhere that you were coming to Atlanta. I would have come down to the Varsity to heckle you or something!

Hey, maybe all those free dogs will ease the pain from that trip to Athens last weekend. Go Deacons!

Kudos for a job...done. Wished I could have gotten in on some good Varsity food. I'm from Atlanta, but not a Tech fan. Come to think of it, I wouldn't want to be a Tech fan...even for all the Varsity food on earth. It, however, was a nice thing you did for the Techies.
