I love watching college football. Even more, I love cheering on my Wildcats. As a Kansas State Alum, I do my best to wear purple on game days and cross my fingers that I can find the KSU game on TV….it can be a bit of challenge in this SEC world here in the south. Perhaps you are like me and have moved to Atlanta from another state and have a difficult time finding your favorite team playing (we all know that Georgia football comes first here).
Have you ever tapped into your college’s alumni association here in Atlanta? Most alumni associations have an Atlanta chapter and love to host watch parties. It can be quite fun to show up at a bar, be surrounded with fellow fans wearing your college colors, and root on your team together. I have listed the Atlanta football watch parties for both the SEC and of course I had to list the Big 12 colleges (being I’m from the Big 12 and all). Double check their facebook or website pages for updated watch party locations. Apologies in advance for not listing every conference…the list would be forever long! Go drink some beer, wear your team color, and cheer on your team. Better yet….wear purple and cheer on my Wildcats.
