ALUMNI TAILGATES
By LEAH BISHOP
The Red & Black
When it comes to
Saturdays in Athens, the
Classic City is tailgate
tested, tailgate approved.
Lasting game day tradi
tions of the loyal Bulldog
nation earned the
University the No. 9 spot
on Tailgater Monthly’s
2009 list of Top 10
Tailgating Colleges.
“Tailgating flourishes in
this part of the country
because it mirrors the life
style of the South,” said
Kevin Miller, publisher of
Tailgater Monthly
Magazine. “Where else can
you go up to complete
strangers, introduce your
self and very likely get a
cold beverage and a plate
of good food?”
Students, faculty, alum
ni and other Bulldog fans
will follow Miller’s guide
lines by setting up tents
and firing up grills across
campus Saturday. Several
University schools and col

Southern hospitality with

to a sense of history and tradition at
those universities,” Johnson said, “just
as a statue of Abraham Baldwin would
do here.”
Baldwin was elected president of the
University in 1785. He also served in
both the House of Representatives and
the Senate.
Kinzey Branham, a member of the art
department faculty, will be the sculptor
for the project.
But Johnson was particular about the
direction Baldwin would face when he

founder will face away from the “89 bars
and a strip joint” downtown, he said.
“In an act of bold leadership, Baldwin
will stand with his back to those distrac
tions and will look toward the centers of
learning the main library, the Miller
Learning Center and the labs on South
Campus,” Johnson said.
After a long process of getting the
statue approved, Johnson said he was
pleased with the council’s decision. The
proposal passed through both the facili
ties committee and the executive com
mittee with unanimous support.
“I’m ecstatic," Johnson said. “We’ve
been working on this for a long time, so
I’m very pleased.”
