I hope you had a great time, Zeke.
Kane vs. Francis was my favorite match.

At least wrestling can go on without water. Of course, knowing how some fans hygiene can be lacking when they have running water, I shudder to think of how they will be like in this situation lol. Either way, enjoy the show. Hopefully things are fixed by the time the show is over but does not sound like it will be. good news there is that the water thankfully has been restored to the area of downtown Atlanta that includes my hotel we are on a boiled water order meaning any water we wish to consume first has to be boiled, I am not planning on cooking a damn thing here and I am sure as hell not drinking out of the tap, but I am just glad I will safely be able to take out my contact lenses tonight and get cleaned up in the morning the water came back too late for the nearby restaurants to open tonight, but I did get to eat today at the Center Stage venue as there was a vendor selling Mexican food and I had two big chicken tacos at the show |

If you pass a Varsity while in Atlanta you might stop there for lunch. Good hot dogs and hamburgers at a fair price. Varsity is an Atlanta staple. I saw a Varsity today, but unfortunately it was closed due to the Atlanta water crisis. I did however get to check out some local Southern beer as the nearby liquor store was open (and business there was booming lol) during the water crisis. I got 6-pack of Red and Black which I am finishing the last couple cans of before I get some much needed sleep. I also tried a can of Snow Ghost, but I did not like Snow Ghost (but again Red and Black was very good.) |

We should get one of those graphics, yellow background and be like Ernest the cat Miller is #FGlegendofwrestling like Tony Khan does every time he makes a hire.
(Ernest Miller is not signed to my knowledge just using as an example since he was in riot and I hope he got signed)

Today I went to my 26th MLB ballpark and saw the As unfortunately lose to the Braves. The Braves have a very nice ballpark where I walked through their Monument Park which had some great displays/awards/summaries of the Braves history dating back to 1871 and highlighted by a statue of Hank Aaron.
I am now at the Atlanta airport eating at a place called Chicken and Beer. At Chicken and Beer, they sell chicken and beer and I ordered chicken and beer.
I am glad I did not take an earlier flight home as I considered (but then again at that time I was not able to get something eat or use the bathroom due to the city’s water outage) as I would have missed the game.
My next trip (not counting going to Los Angeles and back the same day for GCW on June 15th) will be to Buffalo/Jamestown later this month.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down there. So, the place is called Chicken and Beer. Now, what do they sell again? What did you order? It is a lot to process.  Glad you had a good time. I have not been to the current stadium the Braves use. I went to one game back in the early part of the century at Turner Field. It was a special game as they had a pregame ceremony for the retiring Ernie Harwell, long time Tiger broadcaster, as the Tigers were in town, and he started his career with the Atlanta Crackers. |

Not 100% sure it's the same thing but Chicken & Beer restaurants are pretty popular in South Korea. You order essentially full chickens, cut into the different cuts (legs, wings, thigh, etc.) then fried and tossed in your choice of sauce. I love them. Kinda like Buffalo Wild Wings but with the whole chicken... and beer. Korean fried chicken has something unique about the breading I can't pinpoint but really enjoy.
There is a chain that is starting to enter US markets called bb.q which is this same idea, in case anyone sees one of those opening in their area. Highly recommend.
