The Hulu blue is clearly in the 9.99 area. He screwed up and should have honored that 1 we had. We were about to spend a lot of money but he didn't are and showed he didn't care about the customers!!! I'm going to make sure on all my social media I spread the word about how Chris Day handled this situation! Then he said you can see we moving stuff around. Customer have no control over that. My family and friends spent over 2 grand in this store at the beginning of June. We will take our business elsewhere and don't recommend this place.

The store was packed but they had every register open and a lot of associates on the floor helping customers. One awesome employee was even walking around giving expertise on which combinations of fireworks would go best together. The lines moved relatively quickly so it wasn't that bad of a wait. My only gripe is that we asked a floor associate about the buy one get 2 free promotion and specifically if it could be used with the $99 firework for $34.99 and were told that it could be. This led us to grabbing more fireworks than we planned to, but upon getting to the register were told that that could not be done and the cashier said, "I don't know who keeps saying that". Which lets me know that this has happened numerous times and they had yet to fix the issue, which is as simple as sending a manager around to every employee and ensuring that they understood the available promotions and what could and couldn't be combined. It would have been nice for the cashier to have gotten a manager or tried to work up some kind of accommodation given one of their coworkers gave us the wrong information, but they did absolutely nothing to smooth over the transaction and gave us the ultimatum of using the coupon or the promotion.

    I was excited for my first visit to Tomorrowworld this year but it was literally a miserable 6…read moremiles hike back to a field where thousands of people were waiting in hopes of one Uber car arriving. If I could give no stars I would, it was a waste of time and money. Tommorworld should really do something after such a terrible experience. After the concert ended at 1am, crowds of people stormed to leave the muddy event, the staff directed us to wait in a terribly long line to go to Kiss and Ride or take an Uber, we arrived to the front to find out we didn't even need to wait in that line. We had no idea where to go next other than walk 3 miles back to the taxi/uber drop off, which felt like more than 8 miles after enduring the festival. The only way out was offering to pay a random person a large sum of cash that parked at the festival to take us from the area after walking and waiting 3 1/2 hours. If we didn't think of getting a random car to drive us out, we probably still would have been waiting for an Uber car to arrive at 11am this morning. Good luck to anyone who is attending the concert today after braving Saturday's crazy fiasco. September 26, 2015 was my first and last time ever attending Tomorrowworld!

    So I have gone two years in a row. The first two things I noted in year two was the following-…read more 1.) The growth of people video taping Go Pro. Maybe I just did not notice it the first year? It can be a little annoying to have people standing around with camera's on sticks around you. 2.) In this snapchat, Instagram era girls are slutting it out, more and more. Lots more REAL skimpy outfits in year two. No complaints here. The lineup of music in year two was simply not as good as year one. Kaskade to close, sure it was OK, but Armin the year before was WAY better. I mean at one point Kaskade just plays the summer anthem, no mixing, no remix....BORING..... The grounds were dusty this year. It had not really rained in Atlanta for 3 weeks, so it was like a rendition of Mad Max. Dusty. I suppose I can't really fault the Event people for this, but it was kind of a drag. Like many, I was listening to XM Radio's coverage of Ultra Japan on the long drive over to Chattahoochie Hills. It seems even that festivals line up might have been better then Tomorrow World. For inaugural year most people will agree the Pete Tong Stage on Saturday was for sure one of the highlights. For this year many people including myself enjoyed the more techno centric line up of the Richie Hawtin stage. In general I love that my city of Atlanta hosts the largest music festival in the US. That said, it is still a music festival in the US. Americans don't really dance. They stare at the DJ, use Go Pro, and pose for Instragram photos, as opposed to truly getting down like festivals in Europe or South America.

    Cauble Park sits in the heart of Acworth and is a sprawling park that features all the standard…read moreofferings of a park from grill areas, gazebos, walking paths, playgrounds, restrooms and a few other public spaces that are first come first serve...but what makes Cauble Park so special is the beach...yup, the beach in the middle of Acworth! A portion of the park is dedicated to Acworth Beach, which is a fairly good sized sandy beach along side Lake Acworth. The beach is well kept, clean and normally packed during the summer months, as you would expect. They do have buoys in the water noting distance parameters, but the beach does not have active lifeguards, so very much "swim at your own risk". As with other beaches, they offer restrooms and showers adjacent to the beach. While Cauble Park features all the good stuff of a park, it is also a residential neighborhood. To access you either have to live in the city limits of Acworth, and have your respective car tag, or pay a per-car fee to enter. It ranges from $10 - $20, depending on the season. Parking is plentiful, but can be tough on summer weekend days or during special events such as July 4th. Something else I enjoyed about this park is the wooden walkway that took you over Lake Acworth and gave great views of the park, lake and beach. This trail leads into a wooden trail, and while I enjoy paved trails a bit more, I get the preservation of the woods and leaving the trail paved/dirt. This trail is not very long, and dead ends into another residential street. Overall, Cauble Park at Acworth Beach is a well know, but hidden gem in the community! My best friend lives in Acworth, so every time I visit, we make sure to swing by the park at least once.

    Kudos to Georgia Tech AD Dan Radakovich and the Athletic Association for partnering with Atlantic…read moreStation this football season and creating Tech Town. On Friday nights before every Tech home football game in 2011, Central Park in Atlantic Station becomes a giant pep rally for the Yellow Jackets. I passed by the first Tech Town on September 16 before our game against Kansas, but didn't really get the full experience until this past Friday before our game versus Maryland. It was more fun than I expected and the best part of all: it was free. The Ramblin' Wreck was there as well as a ginormous inflatable Buzz, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket Marching Band, Buzz himself, cheerleaders, dance team, Georgia Tech twirlers, and former Jacket athletes. Athletes in attendance included former football players Randy and Kelley Rhino, Sean Bedford, and Felipe Claybrooks. Each was interviewed by the MC and spoke to the crowd over the mike. I spent a few minutes talking to Sean Bedford and his mom. Bedford, an aerospace engineering grad and First Team All-ACC selection, is best known for helping Tech win the 2009 ACC title. He let me check out his awesome conference championship ring. The women's basketball team was also at the fan fest, signing autographs and posing for photos. Tailgaters Alley, one of the best stores to find Georgia Tech merchandise, had several tents set up, selling everything from clothing to car accessories. There were other various tents set up specifically for the event, including one that sold beer and food. Tech football highlights played non-stop on a giant projection screen (the same one Atlantic Station uses for its movie nights). Two stages were set up and a couple bands played. One was a bluegrass band and the other was a rock band. Throughout the night, the MC would give away all sorts of free Tech gear, mostly t-shirts. The highlights of the night were the cheerleading and dance routines, Buzz, and the fireworks. The fireworks went off at 9:30pm sharp. The Georgia Tech and Atlantic Station web sites say the Friday Night Fan Fests run from 6pm to 10pm, but the action this past Friday really did not start until 7pm. Tech Town also runs Saturdays of the home football games. Fans attending the game can park their vehicles (RVs included) in Atlantic Station for $10 and take an air-conditioned shuttle to and from the stadium. Also, if you show your football tickets to many of the restaurants and retailers in Atlantic Station, you can get discounts. Check out the list of discounts here: http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/geot/genrel/auto_pdf/2011-12/misc_non_event/atlantic_station_discounts.pdf I think Tech Town is a win-win for both Georgia Tech and Atlantic Station. Tech is able to partner with a neighboring community to develop more buzz and exposure for the school and its athletic programs, and hopefully gain new fans along the way. Atlantic Station is able to add another fun, family-friendly event to it's lineup and generate more business for the development. While it was a good event, I did see some areas that could have been improved upon. I think Tech and/or Atlantic Station could have done a better job communicating to the public exactly what to expect at the fan fest. A good example is the former athletes that attended the event -- I don't think there was any announcement that these guys were going to be there. If there was such an announcement, I'm sure the turnout would have been better. Only two home games remain on the schedule which means only two more Friday Night Fan Fests. They will take place on October 28 (before the 10/29 game vs. Clemson) and November 25 (before the 11/26 game vs. UGA). Go Jackets!
