Wish I could make it this year but the family is doing Disney 6/9-16 and Atlanta wasn't on the 'stop by and have fun' list as per the wife.
TR, please do the honors of buying first round on me (I'll pay you back) as I did last year ....hell, we waited almost 90 minutes not to be seated, Ambush Master was HOT about that one.....but the beer was cold and in tall glasses.

Had one hell of a good time and learned a life lesson from AM in the pit about trust and situational awareness which I will not forget.
