Loyalty to the Laundry

I was in Atlanta this past weekend for the Florida vs. Georgia football game. Normally played in Jacksonville, the annual rivalry was moved to Mercedes-Benz Stadium while Jacksonville's stadium undergoes renovations.

Gator Nation showed up strong, and the home-state Bulldog fans were there in all their glory. Georgia extended its winning streak in the rivalry to six straight games, sending my fellow Gator fans and me home disappointed, but not totally discouraged.

As I walked through Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport to catch my flight home to Columbus, I passed plenty of travelers proudly wearing their red and black Georgia gear. With genuine sportsmanship, I congratulated them and said, "Good game."
