| On to Atlanta for Exciting Vols Bowl (Georgia Tech students robbed at gunpoint)
Georgia Tech students robbed at gunpoint | ajc.com
Two Georgia Tech students were robbed at gunpoint Saturday evening, according to campus police.
The students were walking on North Avenue near Spring Street when they were approached by a large, tan sedan, according to Tech police. A man exited the vehicle and pulled out a black revolver.
The man got both of the victims' wallets before leaving the scene on foot, police said.
One of the robbery victims sustained a minor injury in the incident.  |

| If the students would have been carrying pellet guns, this would have never happened.

| Stay home if you're scared. We don't need hillbillies who are afraid of the big bad city wandering around here anyway. | |

I've lived there, gone to school there, ridden MARTA and been to tons of games at Turner Field, the GA Dome, Phillips Arena/Omni and I've never felt slightly threatened. | Hey, I've walked back from Turner Field to Georgia Tech completely hammered before and didn't get mugged. Everybody will be fine. BTW, it's like 3 miles. If you ever think the Marta lines are too long and walking is quicker, think again.
