If you go downtown have lunch or dinner at The Varsity.
If you've got some down time, Atlanta is only an hour from Dallas. Take your girls to some of the sights. Turner Field won't be around much longer, World of Coke is always cool, the aquarium is huge, and if you don't know what the King and Queen of Atlanta are, at least drive your girls past them. Remember, it's pronounced At-lanna! No t at the end!

There are so many better places to eat than the Varsity! This tournament is very close to where I live. Mount Tabor is my "home" park. We'll be otherwise occupied this weekend (with tournaments not so close to me, sadly) or we'd come watch this one. I hope the rain stays away! Tabor in particular has terrible drainage (Burnt Hickory is better - it's a gorgeous park, too).

Some of the parks or tournament directors actually sell the vending rights to other parties and it can be expensive for them. They handle the gate fees and vending and their profit depends on sales and money collected at the gates. They actually check at the gates for outside food and having more than one cooler per team. We have not seen it often, but it has happen to us a few times.

I've had that happen in AL, no coolers or outside food. I haven't run into it here in GA yet. Hopefully I won't anytime soon. We always bring a cooler.
We have played in probably a hundred tournaments in GA and have never been denied bringing in a small personal cooler with water and Gatorade. Now a 120-quart Yeti might be a different story....
