Z and I moseyed our way to downtown Atlanta in hopes of getting into the World of Coca-Cola. A half and hour and two parking garages later, we made a run for Bobby Dodd Stadium, where the Yellow Jackets of Georgia Tech play football.
The first sign we were supposed to go inside the stadium was a small parking lot next to the stadium with its gates open, as construction men were working on...something. The next sign was an open gate into the stadium.
You should walk through open doors (and gates) badges or not, unless there happens to be wild boars in the entry way.
We did go through the gate, and it was narrow, so we felt like God was in it. We worked our way on to the field, walking from one end to the other.

We tried most of the doors below the stadium in hopes of finding their weight room, which we eventually did, but it, too, was locked.
It was a simple, fun time of exploration and daring. Z can now lay claim to being on Tech's baseball field and football field. Here are some pictures of the non-baseball event.
We also stumbled onto another classic landmark, The Varsity. We remember watching on the Travel Channel about good eats across America, and The Varsity was on the show.
The Varsity did not disappoint. Even after having eaten a couple of hours earlier.

We then got lost with a GPS from Hertz that boasts, "Never Get Lost".
Finally out of downtown, we got back to our rain soaked hotel only to hear Flash Flood Warnings are in effect until Sunday morning.
Where we go, we don't need no stinking badges.
