While on business in Atlanta, I decided to visit the Georgia Dome for the Monday Night Football game between the Atlanta Falcons and the Cincinnati Bengals. One of the many advertising vendors outside the stadium included Flagstar Bank. As I passed by their booth they encouraged me to enter their drawing for a chance to carry the Falcon’s flag out onto the field during the player introductions.
Long story short, they drew my name and the following pictures are from my time on the field.
If you are in Atlanta anytime during the 2007 NFL season, I recommend you stop by the Flagstar booth and sign up to carry the Falcon flag onto the field. It’s an experience that you will never forget.

You can’t visit Minneapolis without spending at least one evening at Brit’s Pub.
1110 Nicollet Ave
Minneapolis, MN 55403
(612) 332-3908
As the name suggests, Brit’s is a British style pub with plenty of British beer selections to include Old Speckled Hen, Fuller’s ESB, Harp, Guiness and some familiar beers from some of former British territories to include Tiger Beer (Singapore).
Although the food is usually acceptable (in other words, your milage may vary), expect the place to be packed
with young professionals as people come here for the atmosphere. To fully experience this place, walk past the hostess station and up the stairs to the patio level. There you will find the lawn bowling court which will no doubt be filled with local league teams. Find a seat where you can watch the locals (on the lawn or off), order a beer and relax.
If you are hungry and are looking for a good dinner, pick another place or another night to visit Brit’s, but if you are looking for a fun place to enjoy in Minneapolis, don’t leave without visiting Brit’s.
