Burgers With Buck:  It is an awesome time to be a Chicago Cubs fan...emphasis on the word awesome.  However, the segment is not Baseball With Buck.  We're not hear to break down the pitching matchup for game three at Wrigley Field, no we're hear to break down the menu, more specifically the burgers at the local watering hole that caters to the Chicago faithful. 

 

The Black Bear Tavern in Buckhead is where Cubs fans in Atlanta go to cheer on their favorite Chicago based sports teams, and enjoy authentic Chicago style cuisine.  While burgers are not necessarily unique to the Windy City, there are 14 of them on the menu. 

 

Now back to the opening sentence and the use of the word 'awesome'.  #BurgersWithBuck decided to give the #AwesomeBurger a try.  What makes this burger awesome, you ask?  How about this...bacon, pimento cheese, fried jalapeños, fried pickles, onion straws, spicy cajun sauce on a croissant.  It is large and it comes with a choice of a side item (#BWB chose tater tots).

 

The sign out front proclaims The Bear (as it is commonly referred to by regulars) has the 'Best Burgers in Town'.  You will have to judge that for yourself because at #BWB we don't rank burgers, we just celebrate great ones.  It's all a part of our mission to save the world one burger at a time. 

 

For Atlanta based Cubs fans, it is a great place to watch every pitch of every game of the 2016 World Series.  For Indians fans, it's probably better to go enjoy an Awesome Burger on a travel day.

And, as always, if you have a favorite burger that you would like to see featured on, tell me about it on https://www.facebook.com/BuckFOX5 or https://twitter.com/BuckFOX5, and don't forget to use the hash tag #BurgersWithBuck and/or #BWB.

 

 

“Walkers” Invade Atlanta during Annual Fan Convention:  It’s one of the biggest shows on television, and it films right here in Georgia – so it makes sense that tens of thousands of fans would invade Atlanta in hopes of meeting one of the stars of “The Walking Dead.”

 

The annual Walker Stalker Con returns to the Georgia World Congress Center this weekend, October 28-30.  The convention drew more than 50,000 fans last year, and celebrates “The Walking Dead” along with other popular horror television shows and films.  This year’s Walker Stalker Con will include more than 50 actors from “The Walking Dead” and other shows (including “American Horror Story” and “Bates Motel”), who will speak during panel sessions, sign autographs, and take pictures with fans.  The convention will also bring back the popular Walking Dead Experience, an immersive experience which places guests right in the middle of the Walking Dead world.

 

Good Day Atlanta’s Paul Milliken spent the morning at the Georgia World Congress Center, getting a first look at this year’s Walker Stalker Con.
