UGA also has published 4 location on campus where they will televise. I don't have the list, but I'm sure you could find them on the UGA website.

Forwarded on behalf of the ad hoc committee:
 
Organized at the last minute for all of us who are not going to DC January 20th.  Come downtown beginning at 5:30!   The "ad hoc committee" wanted to have some way to mark this historic event locally as a community. (There is also a semi-formal ball at the Classic Center later in the evening sponsored by the Athens Human Relations Council.  Contact the Classic Center for ticket information )

Hope to see everyone there!

Any one who has listened to 960 the Ref AM sports talk radio or heard the UGA Lady Dawgs or men's baseball team has surely heard the encyclopedic knowledge of one Jeff Dantzler.
