Jake Blanck February 22, 2020 0 Comments
Atlanta is quickly becoming a hot spot for tourists. Some places like the Georgia Aquarium and World of Coke have long been essential attractions to visit in Atlanta, but they can be crowded and too expensive for the average college student to enjoy.  While the thought of spending the day in the city may sound financially intimidating to a broke college student, there are plenty of free and...

Unbelievable, sorrow, and despair - these are just a few words that any Atlanta football fan would use to describe this year’s Super Bowl.

One should not go to a music festival without first taking the proper precautions. I went to Music Midtown with some expectations in mind, and while some of them were met, other things I didn’t see coming. I compiled a list of the things I learned at Music Midtown so that you, the reader, can have some idea of what to bring, what to expect, and how to prepare. THERE ARE GOING TO BE A LOT OF...

Jordan Alexander April 27, 2016 0 Comments
The Braves suck: this statement in itself is an understatement. The 4-15 Braves can’t pitch, can’t hit, can’t play defense, and can’t run the bases.

Sometimes teams are just bad and there is no rhyme or reason for it, but Braves Country should be...
