Atlanta's Most Iconic Restaurant |The Varsity

For this video, I ate and explored Atlanta's Most Iconic Restaurant. The Varsity was started in 1928 by Frank Gordy. It's been titled the Worlds Largest Drive-In and on gamedays for a Georgia Tech football game, they serve as many as 3,000 customers. The Famous greeting of "What'll you have?" is their signature line that breaks away from the standard "How may I help you?" that we hear so often. In the video, I throw facts out about the restaurant, eat a burger & hot dog, and explore the atmosphere.

Whenever I'm in Atlanta, I always stop at the Varsity. Love the car hop service but lately I've been sitting in during my visits. Until the next trip to ATL!
Oh, my order? 2 hot dogs, F O and ring one. So glad that F O means Frosted Orange. LOL

I visited the Varsity back in 1978

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

Oh snap! Bet is REALLY busy then.

[@jayjay-bz3rr]

@@onlyinthesouth1985 I’ve never seen anything like it.

[@Pollywhril]

Great video, I’ve never been!! Maybe I should try it out!!

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

You totally should. You have to go at least once.

[@gtprodz5673]

Going to tech games and getting an orange drink is priceless

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

Yes indeed! Did that before a tech game when they played notre dame.

[@thetimdmiller]

I've never been to The Varsity but, I've heard about it. Great video.

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

Thank you Tim! I appreciate it.

[@ts1ezrdr]

I still love the food. Been loving it for over 50 years, but sadly, curb service is gone and it's now a cashless restaurant. Both of those things piss me off.

[@ilIegaIBugTrader]

drove past it billions of times when my dad takes me or other people in my family to the airport and i always wondered what inside it

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

Yeah, it’s also a marker to let you know you’re almost there. A lot of greasy food is what’s inside lol but iconic.

[@three6tilapia]

2 chili dogs, those soggy ass fries, and a frosted orange. The varsity just hits such a nostalgic spot 🔥

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

So true!!! @Three 6 Tilapia Gaming

[@amynaddra7230]

That’s not busy at all. Its usually slammed. It’s an “Ernge drank”. Ketchup is ok in Atlanta!

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

Yeah thanks for letting me slide on the ketchup lol sacrilegious in Chicago.

[@blisswilson9373]

Ketchup! No! The mustard is perfect with chili leave it be

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

I was told about that after. When I went back I did mustard but yeah I know now lol

[@Tripper111]

Dude, when the video started I thought it was gonna be a Sporting Goods store.

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

😂😂😂 I guess The Varsity logo makes you think that. It’s a very well-known place.

[@tomxconn]

A greasy taste of home

[@onlyinthesouth1985]

Indeed it is very greasy but it’s a good place with a lot of history.

Thats Lewis Grizzard, not Jim Henson!
