Though i have a better idea now, what if we got a pretty good head count on interested people and we all go out and meet there and have a huge FIRST dinner one of the nights, i think that would rock the undrground...

great idea perfect chance for such a thing ,your buying right?

Tytus you know me and dan and the rest of the team are in, now since this was your idea you gotta set it up

I heard that place is a bad area if you know what I mean... Our team heard that there have been problems there and aren't sure if we want in...

Well ... Underground Atlanta certainly isn't Disney World by any means. It is lined with clubs and bars, and I'm not sure I'd take a school group on a Saturday night, but usually it's reasonably peaceful.

It has actually cleaned up a lot in recent years and what you heard is probably a few years old.

I will run this by my lead mentor and might have the everyone from all of the students on this trip which adds up to a wopping 13.

I would definately love that. Everywhere weve gone this year I've been cooped up in the hotel pretty much. Love it. I also love being alumni now, I DONT HAVE TO ASK!
See u there, I'll stop by ur pits to get the info.

While im not going championship this year, sadly(our team chose not to go because half of our team couldnt make it, including me) i will be in atlanta for a field trip at coincidentally at the same time(the reason half the team couldnt make it). Im not when we're going to the undrground, but I hope to see some of you there. have fun at championships.

You guys are correct that it's not the best part of town. Personally, I wouldn't go there by myself, but in a large group you should be fine.

[Tytus Gerrish]

I seriously think you guys worry to much sometimes.
a large group of teeneagers all in BRIGHT! colored shirts easily spoted and acounted for. i would like to hear the opinion of somone who has actualy been there instead of second hand rumors

[Bcahn836]

Team 836 will be there. It is right across the street from our hotel the Hyatt.

[Mike Persico]

around what time?.... our team was planing to go. we could posibly jon you guys (and girls)

I've actually been there Tytus. I went there during the day, though, but it wasn't that bad. My mom, my girl friend, and I went with my brother and we were perfectly okay. I'm sure a huge group of us, with a majority of guys would have tons of fun. They have lots of good restaurants and shops and music. And we can all take pictures with the funky cows.

It can't be any worse than Clematis. Just don't linger away from the main stretch of restaurants and stuff.

My team and I would love to go but one of our parents just came back from a business trip from Atlanta and they went there and they said it was not a good place to go after dark so my team cant go.

Just make sure to keep it on thursday, cause there is a college get-together friday, and it will allow for more people. I honestly wouldn't worry about it too much, as long as we keep to ourselves. I know in NY city, a team member pointed out a guy wearing a superman shirt and went "hey it's superman", the guy followed us for blocks, swearing. So thats just an example of how it can be dangerous, but that is only if ur bugging others. Just try to be somewhat mature.

47 is suppose to go there too! I think Thrusday too.. Hehehe. Well we'll see you guys there then.
