Transportation in Atlanta
Atlanta has a pretty comprehensive public transportation system (MARTA). If you are flying to Atlanta, you may not need to rent a car. Visit www.itsmarta.com. Bobby Dodd Stadium is easily accessible on MARTA. From the North-South Line, exit at the North Avenue Station (N3), and walk three blocks west on North Avenue to reach Bobby Dodd Stadium.
Tailgate
Feedback from locals in Atlanta indicates that gameday parking near Bobby Dodd Stadium is very limited. We have selected Jocks and Jills Sports Grill in Midtown Atlanta as the pregame tailgate destination for Terp fans. Jocks and Jills is located at 112 10th St., NE, Atlanta, GA 30309. To get there, take MARTA's North-South Line to the Midtown Station (N4). The Midtown Station is just down the street from Jocks and Jills at 41 10th St., NE, Atlanta, GA 30309. The game kicks off at 3:30 p.m. We'll probably wrap up the pregame party at 2:30 p.m. and make the walk or take the free shuttle together from Jocks and Jills to Bobby Dodd Stadium.
Raising of the Flags
Jocks and Jills opens at 11 a.m.
