Go Dawgs !!!! Get 'em, Sic 'em!!! woof woof woof !!!

Kristie and I flew down to see the Georgia Bulldogs today. They played a 1 PM game against University Alabama Birmingham ( UAB ). They have a great deal at the airport in Athens. You fly in, and they park the planes, and for $ 5.00 each they you ride the city bus service to the campus. So we figured we'd take a chance on finding reasonable tickets.

It was great. Thing went without a hitch. It's a twenty-five minute flight and no traffic. Well almost. The Athens airport is very busy on game day. They have a lot of planes. So many they park them in the grass over on the far side of the airline terminal and shuttle you to the FBO ( fixed base operator ) BTW a FBO is like a terminal for visiting aviation OTHER than the airlines. They have weather briefing services, fuel, snacks, a lounge for pilots and a waiting area much like the airline terminals.

We caught the bus and made our way to the game. There were fewer ticket sellers than we normally see at a Clemson game, and certainly fewer who seem to be doing it as a business. We spotted a couple late middle aged men ( calling the kettle black aren't I ? ) who were selling their family members ( a cousin ) ticket for him. He had broken his hip and could not attend. They turned out to be fantastic seats 45 yard line second level, row seven. Even had padded backs. Perfect. The people around were all nice and respectable. Yes the DOGS won, in a shutout. Did I say perfect ?

Flew home without a hitch other than hot and tired. That stuff and this heat will sap the energy right out.
