Title: Atlanta get togethers
Post by: Kegger26 on May 04, 2005, 06:40:20 AM
Hey guys. I know we have a few members from the Atlanta area. I have already met with some of you. Myself and MI (AKA Doc) have been meeting at this bar named Dantanna's. It is right next to where he works and it is on the way home from where I work..sort of. Anyhow, we have a few members like Plank and Raider179 that are in the Atlanta area. I have spoke to you two on the phone about this. They may be able to make it. Still up in the air. But I wanted to invite other guys from the Atlanta area to join as well. This is a weekly thing. We will be meeting every Thursday night around 5:30/6:30 till around 8:00/9:00. We will also be doing things on the weekend. I will inform you of that once your in the network. That way it is easier to let you know when and where.
My contact info is glock30gunner@msn.com
My cell # (no I am not afraid to post it) 770-896-1324
My name is James.

The place we will be meeting at is a nice bar. Kind of a cross between a sports bar and a really nice seafood restaurant. It is located at.

3400 Around Lenox Drive
Suite 304
Atlanta, GA 30326
404-760-TURF

It is right next to Lenox mall just off Peachtree road in buckhead. It is a new place. Only been open about a year. Look forward to seeing you there.

Getting to Lenox from Marietta isn't too bad, kev. As log as you can get to 400 it's only a minute away off of the exit. Let me know if you need any directions other than those vague ones :p

Marietta also, but since most of you have shot me down at least once I would be too embarrassed to show up.;)

That was the point to this get together. I knew there were a ton of guys from the Atlanta area and surrounding areas. Me and MI thought it would be good to get the Ga boys together sometime.

 Kev if you need directions hit me up on my cell. You dont need to take 400 at all. He is on the west side of Atlanta plank. 400 is on the east side. Basicly you need to get to I285 east take that to I85 south. Then you will see signs to lenox mall. This place is right next to the mall. If you can get that far I will dive out and meet you and you can follow me in.

We are going to make this a weekly thing. It will be every Thursday night around 6PM. MI like I said works right next store and I work not to far north. So you can count on atleast him and I there. Plank isnt to far from there so he will most likely be a common face there as well. I would like to put a face to the names I think this is a great way to do that. So far I havent met anyone from the Atlanta area under 21 yet so let the beers flow. See you there tomorrow night at 5:30pm. Call me on my cell phone at 770-896-1324 if you have any questions, need directions, whatever.

I'm in Pensacola, 5-6 hours from Hotlanta, but I have lots of relatives in the Newnan/Fayetteville area so I could find a good excuse to come up there and hang with you guys some time.

 Sure thing your more than welcome to join us GA boys. I have a good friend in your neck of the woods so maybe we could meet up when I go down there sometime. This summer I would like to get this group of Georgians together for some BBQ and beer out at the lake. My family has a nice place over at Lake Allatoona. I have a half way decent boat and my buddy has a pair of Seadoo's. So maybe you would like to come durring one of those get togethers. Take down my cell number and let me know.

We had a great time tonight. I would really like to see the other guys from the area join up. It was myself, MI, Plank and Tick/Tic (how ever he spells it). Surprisingly we didnt talk about Aces High that much. Mostly about this great looking waitress that we didnt have at our table. Damn shame too. Maybe she would have got my burger right.  

 Clip121, you need to come up. That goes for you other guys that are in the area. You are welcome to come out tomorrow night At the same place as above. We may or may not be meeting Reschke. Tomorrow night though will be an short one. As most of us will be bugging out somewhere around 7pm.

 However next Thurs we will be meeting at the same place at the same time. This will be a weekly event. I have committed to it as has Plank and MI. So one of us will always been there on a Thursday night at 5:30. If you have any questions or you need directions call me on my cell phone at 770-896-1324
Look forward to seeing you there.

I went to a bbq joint in Atlanta last month which was really, really good. I believe it's called Smokey Bones BBQ. Great for get togethers like your talking about, sports, and I'll get crucified for this, but the best ribs I have ever had. Not sure which one, was closest to Woodstock if I'd have to guess. Maybe Alpharetta?
Title: Atlanta get togethers
Post by: Kegger26 on May 09, 2005, 04:45:03 AM
Yeah there not bad. There a chain though.  That being said they do make pretty good BBQ. Which is rare for a chain to do. The location to the one you went to was:     7900 NORTH POINT PARKWAY
ALPHARETTA GA 30022
(770) 518-5588.

 We go to Dantanna's cuz the food is great (if they can ever get my burger right)  and it is right next to where MI works, Plank lives and on the way home from where I work. So it works out great. The atmosphere is great. Mostly a business type crowd. With a sports bar kick. I like it. Plus they carry a large amount of local beers. So it was just a natural choice for us.

 If you are ever down in GA again and you are looking for good local BBQ call me up and I will take you over to the Briar Patch. It is located in Dallas GA and they have some of the best damn BBQ around. All there pigs are smoked, pulled and chopped in house. It is really great.

I figured it would be a bad thing to say the ribs were that good if it was a chain, but it still is good chit, hands down. I go to the rib cookoff every year here, no other way to say it; that place rocks. And they have Captain Morgan cocktails, AND volume controls for each booth. Bottom line, that place is great.

Now if they could only build a Krystal next to our new In-N-Out Burger in Sparks, NV. :0)
