I was just there for a month one week in April.

The Clermont Lounge is all I need in my life to survive and be happy.

I went to stone mountain and it was basically like the confederate Disneyland combined with the confederate mount rushmore.

Awful airport, cool little Atlanta history lesson on the moving walkway though :bwpopcorn:

Agree with the poster above, Marta makes that city so easy to travel in. Plus they have all of the main tourist attractions next door to each other downtown

Their aquarium was top notch

that's exactly what it is! i've been to the laserlight and firework show at least ten times. it was my favorite thing as a kid, now it's absolutely hilarious/pathetic.

in the 90's they would use the laserlights to draw an outline of the southern states and then the northern states before showing how there was conflict and it's been resolved. they had to stop because everyone would boo the northern states.

Its more of a demographics related joke, as white people only make up 38% of the population (54% African American)

Airport is great. Marta is great. Aquarium is top notch. Coke museum is a little brainwashy/Willy Wonka'y but p. cool. MLK museum will make you cry because it is so fantastic. Outkast was obviously increds. Atlanta is great, what is wrong with you rubes? Smh.

Whites are actually a majority now, maybe take this to the gentrification thread aka san fran things
