Compromise:

No way dude, my kid will be devastated! Dahlonega is also where the gold mines are because it's the site of America's first gold rush (it's just two towns north of me) The jits go on field trips there practically every year and it gets them even more wired than candy.

The Atlanta Canes should plan an event there and we can all drum up gold for Canes Connection.
Charlotte likes to say they had the first gold rush because a kid found a 17 pound nugget and his father used it as a door stop for several years. In reality, both happened around the same time and both had mints.

Ah, sneaky, sneaky! So the Carolina gold rush was in 1799, and the Dahlonega gold rush was in 1828, so I am very confused as to why they would both claim they were first. But it seems a lot of the Carolina miners ended up moving down to Georgia and so that one kind of overshadowed the Carolina one, and it also resulted in a lot of industrial growth and historically significant events.

See, this is why I love this board, the history I learn!

Wrong. Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong.

And, yes, there may be better barbecue in other cities not named "Atlanta", but Fox Bros is quite good for this town.

For the record, when the weather is warmer, we hit Heirloom once a week. We also hit Lewis last weekend. And I like Sweet Auburn, though I've only been a couple of times.

Name the better spots in ATL. And, yes, I can't drive to Austin every time I want brisket...
Did you ever go to the old Harold's bbq?

Heard of, but never made it there (moved to ATL 4 years ago).

A while back, my brothers and I would stop at Fat Matt's, but it has seemed like it has slipped in recent years. With Lewis right down the road, I have a solid alternative in that area now.

The nugget was found in 1799, it took until 1838 for both mints to be built.
 
Oh, ****, I forgot to mention a solid choice...only open 4 days a week...and I haven't gone in a while due to "hospital stay" and "cold weather".

Owens & Hull. On the Chattahoochee (literally), right off of Riverview Road SE, twixt Hollowell Parkway (US 78) and South Cobb Drive.

While I love the brisket, I try to get there on Thursdays for the Once A Week burger.

And the sausage ain't no joke.
