Georgia DOME/Tech VISIt

We visited Georgia tech first before visiting  the Georgia Dome at tech we were giving a tour of recreation center. you can tell within there facility that everything is keep in tip top shape at all cost. When we first entered the center to  our right on the floor level was the weight room with a climbing wall and raquet  ball rooms on the very top level was a 6 court basketball room with an inside soccer field, karate dojo, bike and boxing room, and inside track and some more machine weights. On the lower level there is also 4 pools, 2 for competition, 1 for diving competitions, and 1 play pool with a inside slide all the pulls areinside on the outside of the facility is outside equipment (climbing,hunting gear, rafting gear, etc.).
At thethe georgia dome we viwed every level got to go on the fields, into the locker rooms, and in to the suites, and the super club member ship suite. ?Although the georgia domes is fun I think they charge to much to be in the suites but on the other hand when you rent the suites you have alot of perks so I think they balance themselves out.
