Adrenaline Rush

Cheap Cure for Spring Fever

Spring is officially baseball season here in Atlanta. From backyard games of catch to sunny weekends at Turner Field, the city's favorite pastime is in full swing. What to do, however, when you really want to catch a game but just can't muster up the civility to fight traffic on a Friday? Take in a Georgia Tech game, of course!

The Yellow Jackets, currently ranked third in the nation, have had a stellar start to the season. After their weekend sweep, Tech sits at 32 and 5, outscoring opponents 381-144 over the last 37 games. Spectacular teamwork aside, another great perk is the $5 ticket price. Concession prices hover between $3 and $5, making it a fun and affordable option for families. While plenty of street and garage parking is available, Russ Chandler Stadium is just a short trolley ride from the Midtown MARTA station. What's more, the Stinger Shuttles, found all across the GT campus, offer free and air-conditioned rides.

With a jam-packed schedule, games are played throughout the week. For those of you stuck in the office, GT has you covered. Every home games can be live-streamed through iTunes or followed online with GameTracker. Liven up that traffic jam by tuning into 91.1FM for play-by-play coverage.

A few additional notes: Heads up for foul balls! Although they sometimes come careening into the crowd, catch one and get a free concession item. Be sure to check out the promos page for more cool giveaways and specials.
