Little awkward to call it the Mid-Georgia when they ask to make it not specific to Middle Georgia lol

I thought of these before this was made official. It had been brought up in other threads close to a week, week and half half now.

Re: New GeorgiaFIRST Regional!

I think Kudzu would be a great name for Georgia's new regional; since its future home(s) could be anywhere within the state (outside of Atlanta) over the next several years and it does travel well. Plus Kudzu is just fun to say.

Re: New GeorgiaFIRST Regional!

I'm for Oglethorpe, since that's a Georgia-specific thing, as is (to an extent) Peachtree. I can't fill out the survey, though, since I don't know what dates my team can go, if we can go at all .

Re: New GeorgiaFIRST Regional!

how about... The Peanut Regional

free peanuts to all the winners

Given that the most famous person from Georgia, Jimmy Carter came from a line of Peanut farmers.
I'm not from Georgia so I will not submit the name officially, but feel free to take the idea.

Always call it the Larry Munson memorial. Imagine all the confused Georgia football fans.

If the regional were to ever be hosted at Georgia Tech, I'd go for the "Bobby Dodd Regional" or "Heisman Regional"

This is my pick! And submitted, because I'm from Georgia.

Re: New GeorgiaFIRST Regional!

Hmm, I went to high school in Warner Robins and graduated at the Perry Fair grounds. I may just have to try to convince my team to attend.

Shouldn't it be the Peanutplant regional to be consistent with the Peachtree regional?
