Seats Still Available for Bus Trips to Tennessee, Georgia Games
Why drive when you can ride & start your tailgate earlier?! Reserve now! The Atlanta Auburn Club is planning two bus trips for the 2013 football season: to Knoxville for the Auburn-Tennessee game, and to Auburn for our home game against the Georgia Bulldogs.
Thanks to EVERYONE who has already made reservations! We still have seats available for both bus trips, so don't delay - reserve today!
As with past Atlanta Auburn Club bus trips, our main departure location will be the Sandy Springs MARTA station, which offers free vehicle parking. For the Knoxville trip, we are also looking at an additional pickup location just off I-75 in the Marietta/Kennesaw area.
- All buses have Satellite TV, WiFi and 110 outlets, plus restroom.
- Riders can bring small personal-sized coolers aboard the bus (larger coolers, tailgate chairs, etc must be stowed below). For emergency reasons, the aisles in the bus cannot be blocked.
- Bus departure times will be set to allow for tailgating prior to the game. We cannot set departure times until the university has announced kickoff times for the games.
NOV. 9: AUBURN AT TENNESSEE IN KNOXVILLE -- This will be our first Auburn Tigers trip to Knoxville, and already it is a very popular request among Auburn fans. One-way travel time to Knoxville from Atlanta is over three hours. Round-trip price for this trip is only $75/per person.
Note: We are in contact with the Auburn club in Knoxville about the possibility of parking the bus at their tailgate event prior to the game - more details on this soon.

NOV. 16: AUBURN HOME GAME AGAINST UGA -- This is a game day trip we have done before. Bus parking at Auburn is in the hay fields, near Tiger Transit shuttles. Round-trip price for this trip remains only $35/per person.
PLEASE READ: ATLANTA AUBURN CLUB 2013 BUS TRIP POLICY:
Seat reservations are confirmed only through prepayment via credit card links posted by the Atlanta Auburn Club. The Atlanta Auburn Club has no control over TV kickoff times, and to secure buses we must reserve them early. Prepaid fares for game day trips are non-refundable, but they can be transferred (with notice to club) to another Auburn Tiger or someone on the club waiting list (if applicable). Bus departure times & locations will be announced prior to game day travel. The bus charter company has a 'two-weeks prior' cancel policy, so if there aren't enough riders at that point for a planned trip, the club can cancel and refund those who prepaid early. We want to do these trips, so make your seat reservations!
Note: Buses for away games leave one hour after the game ends; buses for home games have allowed time for rolling Toomer's (we discuss home games in more detail with riders once we know the kickoff time).
One final note: We organize these trips for our Auburn Family. That said, we have -on occasion- allowed a rider from the 'other school' as long as they are traveling with an Auburn Tiger. But this is done on a space available basis (and we expect them to behave!) Please contact the club.
