i agree.. it's just really a cool place.. I moved here about 5 years ago and i love it. Here is all u need to know.. And it's so true!\n\nLIFE IN GEORGIA  \nThis is for anyone who lives in Atlanta, Georgia, has ever lived  in Atlanta, has ever visited  Atlanta, ever plans to visit Atlanta, knows anyone who already lives in Atlanta, or knows anyone who  has ever heard of  Atlanta. Atlanta is composed mostly of one-way streets. The only way to get out  of downtown Atlanta is to turn around  and start over when you reach Greenville, South  Carolina. \n \nAll directions start with, "Go down Peachtree" and  include the phrase, "When you see the Waffle House." Except, that in Cobb  County, where all directions begin with, "Go to the Big  Chicken." \n \nPeachtree Street has no beginning and no end  and  is not to be confused  with: \n\nPeachtree  Circle          Peachtree  Battle \nPeachtree  Place          Peachtree  Corners \nPeachtree  Lane           New  Peachtree \nPeachtree  Road          Old  Peachtree \nPeachtree Parkway     West  Peachtree \nPeachtree  Run            Peachtree-Dunwoody \nPeachtree Terrace       Peachtree-Chamblee \nPeachtree Avenue       Peachtree Industrial  Boulevard \nPeachtree  Commons \n \nAtlantans only know their way to work and their way home. If you ask anyone for directions, they will always send you down Peachtree. \n \nAtlanta is the home of Coca-Cola. Coke's all they drink  there, so don't ask for any other soft drink unless it's made by  Coca-Cola. \n \nThe gates at Atlanta's Hartsfield International Airport are about 32 miles away from the Main Concourse, so wear sneakers and pack a lunch. \n \nThe 8a.m. rush hour is from 6:30 to 10:30 AM. The 5pm rush hour is from 3:00 to 7:30 PM. Friday's rush hour starts Thursday afternoon and lasts through 2am  Saturday. \n \nOnly a native can pronounce Ponce De Leon Avenue, so do not attempt the Spanish pronunciation. People will simply tilt their heads to the right and stare at you. The Atlanta pronunciation is "pawntz duh LEE-awn." \n \nAnd yes, they have a street named simply, "Boulevard." \n \nThe falling of one raindrop causes all drivers to immediately forget all traffic rules. If a single snowflake falls, the city is paralyzed for three days and it's on all the channels as a  news flash every 15 minutes for a week. Overnight, all grocery stores will be sold out of milk, bread, bottled water, toilet paper, and \nbeer. \n \nIf you're told to go to Bankhead Highway and can't find  it, It's because the name is Veterans Memorial but the locals still call it Bankhead. \n \nAlso, once the road you're on crosses another road, the name of the road you're on changes. Some roads names change every half mile or so. \n \nI-285, the loop that encircles Atlanta, which has a  posted speed limit of 55 mph (but you have to maintain 80 mph just to keep from getting run over),  is known to truckers as "The Watermelon  500." \n \nDon't believe the directional markers on  highways. I-285 is marked \n \n"East" and "West" but you may be going  North or South. The locals identify the direction by referring to the "Inner Loop" and the "Outer Loop." If you travel on Hwy 92 North, you will actually be going southeast. \n \nNever buy a ladder or mattress in Atlanta. Just go to one of the interstates and you will soon find one in the middle of the road. \n \nThe last thing you want to do is give another driver the finger, unless your car is armored, your trigger finger is itchy and your AK-47 has a full clip. \n \nPossums sleep in the middle of the road with their feet in the air. \n \nThere are 5,000 types of snakes and 4,998 live in Georgia. \n \nThere are 10,000 types of spiders. All 10,000 live in Georgia, plus a couple no one has seen before. \n \nIf it grows, it sticks. If it crawls, it bites. If you notice a vine tryi

I think you are referring to Ted Turner who is known as the "Mouth from the South". He owned the Atlanta Braves and Atlanta Hawks. He founded CNN which is headquarted in Atlanta. TBS which broadcasted from Atlanta. So he's done quite a bit to put Atlanta on the map.

There is one in or near Monroe, GA. I hear they may be building one closer to Atlanta, possibly Stone Mountain, but I don't think there is one there now.

I do know that the current Braves ownership is looking to sell the team, but they will not be sold to an ownership group that would move the team.  The Braves will be in Atlanta for years to come, but probably with a new owner.

I went to SuperBowl 28 when it was here in Atlanta, the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Buffalo Bills 30-13. I remember it was the loudest I had ever heard the GA dome, and it was great to see so many different people cheering for the Cowboys in Atlanta. I also went to SuperBowl 34, which was also here in Atlanta, the Rams and the Titans played. I thought the Titans got cheated in that one, from the stands, it looked like their last throw was a touchdown, but i remember every Titans fan being upset that night. The half time shows are awesome, even though we didnt get any Janet Jackson action.

Atlanta....Browns are terrible and Atlanta will eat up massive amounts of clock with their run game.....less clock means less scoring and the defense is rested.

I think I would choose either Boston, Massachusetts, or Savannah, Georgia, probably leaning toward Savannah.\n\nBoth cities have a great deal of history, you will be able to find tons of information on each one, and they are both very interesting.\n\nI hope this helps.
