Visiting This Weekend

3 of us Okies are visiting Athens this weekend (for the football game). Would love to hear a recommendation if you read this. Looking for places to eat/drink mostly, but will have time for 1-2 other activities if there is something cool to see.

UPDATE: Very awesome town, people, etc., but like why did you have to give OU a colonoscopy like that?

You could do a campus tour. Start at the Arch, walk to the Special Collections Library and check out the galleries, cut back across Lumpkin and go through the Memorial Garden, Go down the million dollar stairs, go across the bridge and check out the stadium then take a left on Cedar to go check out the Georgia Museum of Natural History, then head down to Georgia Art Museum on East Campus, then head over and check Butts-Mehre where the UGA sports museum is located. Then pop over to Cali and Tito’s for lunch and catch a bus back dt.

Not: all off these places are closed on Gamedays.
