Moved here in 1977 from Chicago. Been a Hawks fan ever since.

Kept cheering for the Bulls too, all through the Jordan era and before.

No longer cheer for the Bulls.

Used to live in Marietta, GA as a military brat in the late 80's. Last year, I attended college in Tallahassee, FL.

Now attending Graduate school at USC Los Angeles, CA.

I'm hoping the Hawks play either the Clippers or Lakers at the Staples Center. It's been 10 years since I've seen the Hawks play.

Never Mind I just saw a carpet commercial with Jeff Gordon and the company was in Dalton, GA. LOL

[Diesel]

I've been through Dalton a few times, and that's what they advertise...

They are the carpet capital of the world.

I think it was research in Dalton that got Wayne Williams locked up.

A Hawks related fact about Dalton: a former 2 time Hawks team owner used to live in Dalton. Bud Seretean, along with two other guys, built Coronet Ind. into the largest carpet mill in the world in the early '70s. They sold out to RCA, and sometime after that, he bought into the Hawks. I am not sure how got into and out of the team at that time, but evidently later on, he was a small part of the Atlanta Spirit purchase. The Hawks website shows him as a "investor":

Salem, OR of all places!

Never even been to Georgia but became a big Hawks from the first time I saw Wilkins spin baseline on his defender and throw down a windmill jam.

Dude I am right around the corner from you in Conley down bouldercreast a bit. We could carpool to some of the games. Cheaper on the parking.

London, England.

I saw the Hawks (with 'Nique) play 2 games in London against the Magic in the '93 pre-season (before Penny's rookie year). 'Nique was wicked...
