Well, seeing that you're from Louisiana, I'm sure you've been to New Orleans. Just think of ATL as "New Orleans Lite".

Plenty my friend. Go to "Tongue & Groove" tonight for the DMSX industry party.

Autograph signing today at 2 locations. We are going to the Marietta location because its 5min away & Kawi/KTM will be there.

If you didn't bring your bike, rent one. They have LOTS of new bikes. And this weekend is customer appreciation week. So its free admission into the park. They have alot more to do then just ride bikes. Its truly an outdoors man paradise!! CHECK IT OUT.

It is something that HAS TO BE experienced at least once in your life.

I recommend hanging out in the airport. I had a dude who looked and sounded EXACTLY like Roger Mayweather tell me some pretty funny stories while doing push ups during a lay over. That was the best part of my time in Atlanta...Laughing

If you're in the mood for some kick ass pizza, give Antico a try.

For things to kill time, the Coca-Cola museum is pretty cool if you've never been.

There's a strip club across the street to the North from the downtown Hilton (the one on Cortland and right off I-75/85)...........make sure you avoid it.

Both are good and about 2-4 hours each, depending on how much time you want to spend.

For some strange reason "The Varsity" is a must have for a lot of these Georgia folks.... Personally, I don't understand it but... when in Rome!

Its just North of the City on the side of the interstate across from Georgia Tech

Is the Vick Fighting Arena still open? Might be worth checking out.

Maybe see the house Dominique Wilkins grew up in, another Atlanta highlite.

The Steve Bartkowski House of Pancakes is a popular Atlanta breakfast spot.

Ted Turner has a chain or restaurants that has buffalo on the menu. You might want to check that out. I think that I will.

The aquarium is cool. They use to have a whale shark.

Don't eat the Varsity unless you have a cast iron stomach. That place will clean out your colon better than any medicine.


The Coke museum is cool plus you get to try out different soft drinks from all over the world.

Try Ron and Glady's for the best friend chicken and waffles.

The Vortex has killer hamburgers.

Say no to hoes.

Yea, I never really got the whole Varsity thing. I lived in Athens for three years and I bet I only went there a couple of times in those three years. If you're experiencing constipation, however, the Varsity might be just the ticket.
