I don't know ... I'm thinking that in Georgia that kind of cross species thing is probably illegal.

Yes, we're very genteel down here. Unlike Alabama, where Roy Moore fucks goats with abandon. :lol:

I certainly hope I won't be expected to remember my number in the current Homecoming 2017 roll call, nor will it dictate my place in line at the bar... if so, I am open to implementing a lobbying effort to improve my position from #24... thoughts for a chilly autumn afternoon... hope all are well. :?

I'll sell you Ramonz' #5 slot for a jack and Diet Coke and a PBR in the 40 Watt. Deal?

Are there ANY hotels in town still open? Every place I've checked so far is booked for the weekend.

Speaking of the 40 Watt, what do the drinks run at the bar? As a Homecoming newbie, methinks I want to have my pocket properly loaded in order to get my person properly loaded, and to perhaps share my goodwill with other Heathens... ;)

Great prices. I'm not a PBR guy but you'll see a lot of tall boys. My standard is a Sierra Nevada and a shot of Patron and I think that's $10.50 unless it's gone up. Athens is the place to see a Rock Show and the 40 Watt is holy ground.

Dirt cheap compared to almost every other music venue I've ever been in.

Absolutely. Unlike the Tabernacle where the prices are 2-3 times as high and you get robots for bartenders. Also, at HC the 40 Watt turns into Jamaica North during the first song. Just stand next to Pickle and you'll be good to go.

Drinks are dirt cheap for any sort of bar/ music venue but one thing I've noticed seeing bands in the south (including the 40 Watt) is a total lack of pot smoking, let alone other drug use. Perhaps it's just where I reside has painted an odd perspective.

That particular section of the Athens primer was missing. Go to know.

Umm at the 40 Watt? I've seen plenty but usually deep within the crowd up front. Also the back bathrooms are usually filled with clouds by the end of the night.

I think perhaps your standing in the wrong area of the 40 Watt :D

I saw a video from either last year or the year before where Patterson, before staring a song in a plume of smoke said something along the lines of "Goddamn, I'm getting a contact high!" Funnily enough, I did not remember that remark.

Last time I was at Homecoming, I was not of legal drinking age. This year, that injustice shall be rectified with so, so many of those PBR tallboys.

Starting to look for flights for the Homecoming weekend. Is anything going on Thursday other than the Rock Show? What time should I plan on getting to Athens?
