Some old school KFC

A KFC restaurant I came across in Marietta. The mouth and eyes move.
Ridiculously awesome in it's crazy way

Epsilon Alpha - Southern Polytechnic University

The Epsilon Alpha chapter house at Southern Polytec in Marietta, GA
just north of Atlanta

The Varsity

Inside the worlds largest hot dog restaurant. An Atlanta landmark
since 1928, the Varsity is an experience you have to see to
understand.

Georgia Tech Budweiser Song

A GT tradition at the end of the third quarter

Bobby Dodd Stadium

Had a chance to catch the Georgia Tech-NC State game with the guys in
the Greek block. Cool stadium, fun afternoon

University of Florida

Finishing up a three day visit at UF, had a chance to go check out the
swamp, eat at the Copper Monkey (Best burger in town), The Swamp
Restaurant (Gainesville favorite) and grab a beer with Willy at
Mothers one night. Unfortunately I'm missing the football game this
weekend but that just means I need to come back.

Denver Baby!

Took a 2,400 mile detour from my travels on the road this weekend and
went back to Denver. Had a chance to catch the CU-Hawaii game saturday
and then watched the Broncos actually play football for a change, as
they owned the Seattle Seahawks. Now it's time to catch a flight to
Orlando and hit the road to Gainsville.

Eta Epsilon Chapter

New chapter house for the Eta Epsilon chapter of Sigma Pi at Florida
State University. It is a historic landmark of the city of
Tallahassee. Erected in 1903 the house was the one time home for the
mayor of Tallahassee.

Florida State University

For a university that I have ragged on for years and has arguably some
of the most questionable student athletes in the past two decades, I
gotta give it to them, they do have a great campus. There is beautiful
mix of southern architecture meets Spanish design. Much of the campus
is welcoming and makes you feel as though you were walking through the
1920's; definitely a pleasant suprise.

"My Dad's a Pistol; That Make's Me a Son of a Gun"

While in Livingston, AL at the University of West Alabama. A Lewis
Grizzard impersonator was in town doing a tribute to Lewis.

For those unfamiliar with Lewis, he is on of the most famous Sigma Pi
alumni and the most syndicated columnist in American history.

The brothers of Theta Gamma and I spent an evening getting a glimpse
of what made Lewis so funny and so admired by his followers.

Who would have known there were things to do in Livingston. If you get
a chance, look up some of his columns. They'll provide you with a good
laugh for the day.

Grand National Golf Course

Had the opportunity to spend the afternoon playing a round at the
Grand National golf course in Opelika, AL, just outside of Auburn. The
course was set in one of the most beautiful settings anyone could come
up with. As a part of the Robert Trent Jones trail, it could be the
best stop on the trail.

Budget Item: Toilet Paper Clean up

Auburn is apparently the only city in America that has toilet paper
clean-up on the city's line item budget.

After a War Eagle victory the students coat the entrance to the
university in a white blanket of toilet paper that would make a group
of teenage boys on Halloween proud.

SEC Football

Started my fall semester on the road with a great night at the
Arkansas State - Auburn game. Love the return of college football
