That SUCKS!!!! 9,000??? What are you going to do with all those people with tickets? Refunds? The SEC would not allow this much money to be lost, would they?

What choice do they have if the GA Dome is damaged or the area around it is heavily damaged?

It's going to be a hell of an atmosphere though.

I just want to see the schedule now.

Only good thing about this is that at least we get out of the place that we have been 1 and 12 in basketball and football the last ten years.

Too bad about the tickets though. That stinks. Not sure what they will do.

This just in: The SEC Tournament has now been moved to GaVol's driveway. Expect to get there early if you want to grab a lawn chair.

NO GEORGIA DOME CURSE!!! Let's hope there isn't some kind of "Thrillerdome" curse.
