Another reason why Georgia Tech is better than your school

We get space shuttle flyovers before our football games.

Three Georgia Tech grads will have the ultimate nosebleed seats for pre-game activities before their alma mater’s big football game with Miami tonight.

They’re aboard space shuttle Endeavour, which is scheduled to be above Atlanta about 6:10 p.m., according to the school.

The shuttle will track from southwest to northeast and look like a very bright moving star.

From the center of campus, look kind of in the direction of the CRC (southwest) and trace up toward the direction of the Coliseum (northeast). If you’re in Home Park, looking toward the intersection of Northside and 10th will be southwest for most residents, looking toward the 17th St. bridge is northeast.
