Atlanta is known for good entertainment and although many are traveling for the holiday weekend, many wanted to stay right here and enjoy the city.
“Well one of the reasons why I decided to stay in town, the gas prices are so high. They are not cheap right now and we’re here in Atlanta. We have a lot of festivities going on in this Metro Atlanta area,” said Michael Hudson.
