Party till 3 a.m. on Thursday and Friday nights, or stop by starting at 11 a.m. on gameday. Gibney's Pub will feature Abita beer and football on all their plasma screens. Looking for a place to celebrate after the game in the Dome? Gibney's Pub will be open till 3 a.m. On Friday night, LSU Atlanta will show the folks from the SEC East how it's done at Park Tavern (500 10th St NE, 404-249-0001, www.parktavern.com) in Piedmont Park. Buddy Songy of 1210AM in Baton Rouge will broadcast his SEC Championship Preview Show from 8-10 p.m. ET. Park Tavern will feature $1 Guinness drafts and music by Atlanta's top DJ.

On Saturday Rio Grande will host the official LSU Atlanta view-in party for the SEC Championship Game and will also feature a rock band postgame. Rio Grande serves as LSU Atlanta's weekly destination for football games in the fall. The LSU Alumni Association and the Traveling Tigers will call the Marriott Marquis home for the weekend. Stop by to stock up on Tiger gear, as LSUAA will have merchandise for sale in a suite at the hotel.
And while you are all there please do not forget to flush twice... It's a long way to Athens! :thumb:
Not sure if I'm jumping in on in inside joke here, but it made me laugh. They are actually telling us to only flush every other trip to the bathroom because of the historic drought we are having.
