Are you ready for some March Madness? I love college basketball especially in March when it is tournament time. The league championships and the Road to the Final Four are a blast to watch with friends at Fox Sports Bar and Grill in Atlantic Station.
When I was in high school my sister and I would watch the selection show and write the brackets for my father, for whatever reason he never seem to be home to watch that. We would give him a typed version and we would sit and pick our favorites and the eventual winner. We did not bet money or anything it was just a fun thing to do with my dad and siblings.
In those days the games would start on a Thursday and continue all day, when the prime time east coast games were over, they would switch to a west coast game. You could be in front of a basketball game all day Thursday and Friday. I do not think they switch to a west coast game these days, once the east coast games are over, the local Atlanta news comes on.
I am a big ACC fan, that maybe because Georgia Tech is 30 minutes away. My favorite team is University of North Carolina, they just happen to be an ACC team. I will even admit I like Duke, just a little. I like other teams from different leagues, like USC, Georgetown, Boston College, just to name a few.
I need to go to TARGET and buy a new basketball, I have not played in years. During halftime of whatever March Madness game we would be watching, we would go in the backyard and play a game. My dad and brother against my sister and I. My mom would sit on the deck and watch. She would be the time clock, to let us know when the game was coming back on.
I have to find someone who plays or someone who wants to go to Atlantic Station to watch the games.
