I get why a President would want to attend this game but it sounds like thousands are going to miss kick off because of security issues for Trump. 1) why piss off that many voters? and 2) I don't care who the President is, F you for making thousands who paid good money have to wait so long and not be able to get in the game
 
'Falling apart?' Trump's insults not forgotten in Atlanta

When President Donald Trump swoops into Atlanta for a VIP seat at college football's biggest game, he'll enjoy the Southern hospitality of a city he disparaged a year ago as "falling apart" and "crime infested."

The insults tweeted by Trump a week before his inauguration may seem like ancient history to most Americans who follow the president's voluminous stream of online invective. But Atlanta hasn't forgotten.

"It was very personal because we live here and we love it," said Stephanie Langer, a 40-year-old East Atlanta resident whose anger over the president's putdowns was rekindled by news of his pending visit.

"I guess it's just ironic that he's coming here," she said. "I guess things must have improved."

Trump plans to be among 72,000 attending the College Football Playoff Championship game Monday evening between Georgia and Alabama. The game is being held at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the new $1.5 billion home field of the Atlanta Falcons.

The stadium sits in the heart of downtown Atlanta, a place Trump targeted in a pair of tweets Jan. 14 last year. He was punching back at Democratic Rep. John Lewis. The Atlanta congressman, a civil rights hero, had said he would skip Trump's inauguration after allegations of Russian election meddling caused him to doubt Trump "as a legitimate president."

Trump tweeted : "Congressman John Lewis should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart (not to mention crime infested) rather than falsely complaining about the election results."

Lewis' 5th District seat covers most of the city of Atlanta, including downtown. Trump's attack galvanized residents to post photos of their neighborhoods and other Twitter rebuttals under the hashtag #defendthe5th.

Atlanta is the jewel of the southeast .. a black city controlled by democrats for over 40 years .. both reasons why Trump said that dumb shit.

Enjoy your short stay in our world-class stadium .. then get your bitch ass back under the rock you crawled from.

He's entitled to do it, so he does. Same old.

I’m sure there will be crowds to great him!
 
It's a bunch of UGA and 'Bama alums. He got huge cheers. Not surprising. Neither school is in Atlanta

Sure, he's really loved in Alabama .. which is why they now have a democratic Senator.

He got lots of boos .. but I'm sure that you and Trump will claim he got a standing ovation with the loudest cheers ever recorded.

I don't give two shits what he got. I would have boo'd him if I were there. But my volume was on and I heard the cheers. I don't think it's surprising based on the fan bases there

Why would I claim he got a standing ovation? What is even the basis for that comment?

Watching the game while working .. while posting on a website might be a bit too much. :0(

I still don't think the Sooners could have won. They require Mayfield to be very highly proficient in order to win games, so that the defense only has to slow the opponent down a little. He couldn't keep it up against GA, and would have had to keep it going for one more high-pressure game.
