Great Job GTKyle !!!!!!!!!
I appreciate this and it's the first time I've seen some of these.
I'll buy you a coca cola when I meet you.

Thanks for the post. You should check out the GT archives. There are some really interesting things about the stadium down there.

Thanks GTKyle... I think I see my grandpa in the first 1920s pic!

{I'm gonna put it into and PhotoShop and zoom in real close. Because, you know, like in CSI and Las Vegas and 24 and (gulp) Bladerunner, you really can zoom in indefinitely with infinite resolution to see every little detail...}

ahh the good ol' days selling coca colas in the old South Stands. The most I sold was when Auburn came to town. The guys would buy trays-at-a-time. Thye'd take the tray from me, slosh out coke to where their was about an inch from the top and open up there pints of liquor and fill every coke cup back up to the brim. Man those were some drinkers back in the sixties.

Actual quote from Vince Dooley on his TV show the next day:

"It was some kind of fog or I don't know what it was!"


No pics, but here's an audio clip for you:
