More News From Atlanta and the ACC Tournament

I took this picture last night from our seats for the VATech and the Miami games. They both advanced to play today. We bought those seats for $15 each - face value $43 each. In advance tickets for the whole tournament is $250. It includes a ticket for each of the 6 sessions. If your team loses the first day - you are stuck with all those extra tickets.

This is the Georgia State Capitol from our suite at the Residence Inn on the Peachtree Plaza. It was just raining but now the sun broke thru. We are about 4 blocks from the arena and the Olympic Park.

Lulu scored 4 cheap tickets for tonight. Duke plays VT and FSU plays Miami. She found the tickets on Craigslist. We had to ride 7 miles north on the subway to pick them up at Lenox Square Mall. She got 4 seats together - up high - for $22 each - face value on them is $60 each. Since Jackie and Tami are coming - we wanted 4 safety seats together. We will try later for better seats - and sell these if we are successful. Then she spent her "savings" on two new pair of shoes.

These two guys were commenting on the game down in front of us.

Lulu just texted me to say she got into the Carolina game for $10 - then moved down behind the bench because no one is checking.
