You must have stayed on the wrong side of the dome.
A couple tips if you're going next year
- Be sure to reserve early and stay in a 4 or 5 diamond hotel ... Hyatt, Omni, etc. In general, they are in better areas, and don't cost any more under the FIRST package.
- If you pass by an agressive panhandler pick up your cell phone and call 911. Panhandling is illegal in Atlanta. If you're still uncomfortable, walk in large groups, no one wants to mess with a large crazy looking group all wearing the same shirt.
- For food, drop a line at georgiadome.com or atlantafalcons.com to complain about the quality/price. Or, you could always hop over to the CNN center for lunch. There they have a lot of the major chains at regular prices.
- Parking -
1) Park at the hotel and walk. The dome is only a few minute walk from the Omni, and was only a 15 minute or so walk from the Hyatt.
2) Find close lots. We paid $8/day for parking @ the dome, and were only a 1 minute walk to the door
