what people fail to realize is that Atlanta is a great sports city it just concentrates on college sports more than anything else.

first off the best first college football game of the season is always in atlanta for the chickfila kickoff or whatever its called.We have the sec championship every year.Here is the problem with Fans here.We got very spoiled by The Braves and after winning 14 straight division titles as a fan u kinda dont get excited about much unless its playoffs.

2nd thing is that alot of people relocate to atlanta from larger cities.So if you have the knicks in town there are alot of people from new york living in Atlanta so they buy the tickets to that certain game because thats thier team.So atlanta gets a bad rep for not being a great sports town when really it is,

falcons have been sold out for about 5 yrs now,the greatest golf tournament of the year is about 45 min from atlanta and college football would not be the same without Atlanta

DC is similar to Atlanta in a lot of ways. It's such a transient city that we get stuck with tons of Philly and Mets fans filling Nationals Park and with how bad the Redskins are, we get inundated with all the visiting teams fans buying up those tickets too. The Caps are the only hot ticket in town right now, but the Wizards would sell out pretty often if they were winning. But none of the teams here are going anywhere...
