Greetings!
War Eagle everyone! Hope to see many of you in Auburn this weekend for Homecoming.
For those who be staying in Atlanta, Saturday's game against Furman will not be on any of the broadcast networks. We have heard that at least some, if not all, of our viewing locations will have it. But we do suggest you call the viewing location ahead of time to make sure (telephone #s listed below)
The Auburn game against Furman kicks off at 12:30 p.m. CT (1:30p ET).
For anyone who is interested, a full listing of Homecoming activities is at the bottom of this email.
War Eagle!

Seats Still Available! Reserve Now for AAC Bus Trip to Athens!
Round-trip bus fair to the AU-UGA game is only $30/per person
We have gotten A LOT of reservations since last Friday. If you are still sitting on the fence - don't wait to long! This bus trip will sell out! Don't miss out on the Atlanta
Auburn Club's favorite road trip -- when we head to Athens for that all-important date "Between the Hedges."
Tickets are only $30 per person - as usual this does NOT
include your ticket for the game - you are on your own for that! There
is a group of Tigers planning to join us who don't have
tickets yet; if they don't get them by kickoff, they plan on heading to
a bar in Athens in one big group.
Our buses will leave the Park & Ride lot at I-85 and Indian Trail (just north of Jimmy Carter Blvd) at 2pm ET. Check-in for the buses begins at 1:30pm ET. Kick-off for the game is set for 7pm ET.
Why drive and worry about parking in Athens when you can get the tailgate party started sooner with us! We will be parking in Athens at the Classic Center - an easy walk to the stadium for the big game! You are welcome to bring chairs, tents, food, coolers, etc. to set up once we arrive in Athens.
For more information, or to reserve your seat, email us at communications@atlantaauburnclub.org, and then send your check, payable to the Atlanta Auburn Club, Inc., to AAC Athens Trip, c/o Ginger Florey, 1119 Cimarron Ct., Clarkston, GA 30021.
***
The buses will also make a stop at the Holiday Inn if anyone wants to get off to attend the Athens Auburn Club's pre-game Tailgate BBQ, which will start 4 hours before kickoff. The Holiday Inn
is located at the corner of Broad and Lumpkin in downtown Athens. Cost: $30 Adults, $15 Children; Cash bar. For more information, click here to go to their website.

ornaments are also still available. These can be purchased for $30 per ornament
while supplies last.
