I found that TAB was kinda on my route back to the hotel so I headed that way on a solo adventure. Unlike the droves of other bars nearby, this one is tucked away by itself and downstairs in a basement. The vibe is all 80's/90's and heavy on nostalgia for millennials. I loved the beetlejuice snake popping in and out of the ceiling! There is a whole room of pool tables, a section of arcade games, and other fun activities like a photo booth. Maybe it's because I was in a good mood and a few cocktails deep, but the DJ was crushing it. He finished up with karaoke right as I arrived, but for the rest of the night he kept the energy high with amazing mixes. I couldn't bear to miss any jams so I ended up staying until close and finishing out the night. I can't wait for my next visit to SAV to come back.

I have been to Totally Awesome Bar a few times, but on this Saturday afternoon it was pretty empty…read more It was actually the perfect opportunity for me and some girlfriends to make our own fun. There's literally a photo-booth, pool tables, arcade games and a bar with great drink options which are very reasonable. The bartender was very attentive and assertive to what we needed. We literally just had a great time for hours and the bartender was so helpful in just including himself in on our shenanigans and even taking our pictures when needed. I really love the old school decor. You can find everything from a VCR to the old school TV shows playing in the background, old school games, they even had this scary looking doll lamp and different nik knacks throughout the location. The bathroom was super cute with different paintings on the wall and it was so clean and not expected of what you would see in a bar. I definitely want to come back for karaoke or some of the other themed nights.

I came for a concert and I will say that might be my new favorite indoor venue. The inside had…read morelots of bathrooms, food, and signage. The staff was also super friendly. My favorite part of the venue: the high bar seats behind the stage where I was able to feel super close to the band. I have not seen a venue like this before. My least favorite thing was the lack of outdoor signage on which line to get in. We winded up in the VIP/ Floor line and they were turning people away after they stood in the line for 30+ minutes as it moved up. Luckily, we were super nice as always, and they slapped some bands on our wrists and said to have fun! My FAV FAV part was how they have figured out rideshares! The staff asks the ride share who they are picking up and then call out your name. It felt like elementary school pick up all over again and worked so smoothly.

We took an afternoon and morning off work so we could do a quick road trip up to Enmarket Arena in…read moreSavannah to see "Weird Al" Yankovic in concert (again) this week. This was the first event we've ever been to at Enmarket Arena. It's about half the size of VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville which holds about 15,000 for concerts whereas Enmarket Arena holds about 7,500. Their minor league hockey team plays there as does their new women's basketball team like our Jacksonville Waves. The venue has been open for 4 years now and somehow, there are still some pain points with respect to customer service / interaction. There seem to be tiers of teams there and I can tell you this: every single person we interacted with that was wearing a blazer was rude to us for absolutely no reason. Even though we encountered more than a few folks who seemed almost mad to be working there I'd like to call out two AMAZING people that helped make our night awesome. These two folks were from other teams (not wearing blazers). First, I'd like to thank Sheila for being a warm, kind hearted person who was just a joy to interact with from the moment we got to the arena until we left. We roamed a lot, so we ran into her more than a few times. Every time we did, she was smiling, helping someone with something and being upbeat. I'd also like to say thank you to Adrienne, our go-to person at the concession stand by section 102. Like Sheila, she was warm, kind and just a very nice person. She happens to know Detroit very well so we had a great conversation about traveling around Michigan as kids. The show itself had a surprising amount of production issues, which I've never seen at a Weird Al concert. Miscued backdrop videos and delayed audio triggers happened a few times through the show, which was just odd to see. Al is a pro though, so he pushed through them without missing a beat or complaining to the crowd about it. I've included photos of us with the workers I shouted out along with a photo of Lauren talking to Weird Al after the show. If you go to the original post in our Facebook group, you'll also see a few long video clips of the opening of the show because I always love how he starts the show from backstage. Another great experience from Weird Al is in the books. Now we have to wait for Tallahassee in September before we see him again. We also need to make it our business to plan a longer trip to Savannah so we can experience more of it next time. This post originally appeared in the Jacksonville Fun, Eats & Drinks Facebook group.

My drink was perfect (I love when bartenders know how to make a peach king island without direction). I've been here twice since my first visit, not because the building or the food (that I couldn't smell but they have a very limited menu somewhere), but because it's a vibe that welcomes all.

Who knew this magical place existed? Getting in is like making your way to the Wizard of Oz. Ring the bell, have them buzz you in, then zig zag through the warehouse maze to Film Biz. Once you open those doors, it's like a land of make believe. This is dress up for grownups. Film Biz Recycling is really meant for movie sets and theater. It's where you go when you need period pieces and décor. Cell phones as big as your face? Fake food? Gurneys and IV fluid? They'd have you ready for your low budget film in no time. For people like me who like to putz around and take goofy pictures, it's like a giant playground. Plastic turkey legs? Baby dolls. Shag carpet. A churro stand. I don't know what you'd do with all this stuff but it sure is fun. If you go a few times, you'll begin to notice that they arrange and decorate for the seasons. Right now they have their Halloween spreads in full effect. It's like a miniature haunted house! They also have all sorts of costumes. Care to be a fireman? Corn? Carmen Miranda? Football player? They have everything. I ended up getting my Halloween costume here. Took a pic of myself wearing it, posted it on social media, and got a discount on the spot. I couldn't be happier.

This place is magical…read more Somewhat hidden behind a locked gate and beneath a larger building, Film Biz Recycling defies comparison to other establishments. It's like a flea market you hit up to find things you previously just wished you could buy (or rent!). And it's staffed by fun folks who clearly love the shop, and want nothing more than to help you out. They have racks upon racks of well-labeled costumes, props, and my favorite aspect of the entire joint: stuff...in a box. By that I mean they have all sorts of ready-made kits of props/accessories for specific situations. For instance, they've got: A Wedding In A Box. Ulster County in a Box. Videos in a Box. Thanksgiving in a Box. Valentine's Day in a Box. License Plates in a Box. Whether you're looking for a Halloween costume, to decorate your home with odds and ends from various movie productions, or you just want to browse around for something you never knew you always wanted, there isn't a better place in Brooklyn. Really when you think about it, Film Biz Recycling is Awesomeness in a Box.

What can I say? A five star review from someone who follows zero sports teams? Maybe that's enough?…read moreYes, sign up for the ticket lottery. Login if you are lucky enough to "win". But only after you have done your research as to which games and seats you would like to get tickets for. Then, if your timing was good, wait for your game day and enjoy the show. True, the Bananas play in large venues now. As much as I would try for tickets every year here I don't think you will ever find me watching somewhere else. The stadium is small enough where ride sharing is actually easy both getting there and being picked up after the game. The fact that the Bananas have a post-game "show" outside is a brilliant way to make it not a rush for everyone to leave at the same time. At least when I was there Lyft seemed to be a vastly better option than Uber for Savannah in general. So, if you generally only use one you might want to compare rides in real time before hitting the request button. Food is generally free. Not only free but when you say you want a hot dog you will probably be asked, "How many do you want?" What is for sale, like beer, Dippin' Dots, and some other food stuffs, is all reasonably priced too as is the merch. Are the Bananas the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball? Maybe, Banana Ball isn't baseball, but it's close. It is also entertaining enough for someone who is not into sports, like me. If you have kids, this will be the Disneyland of baseball to them as they get closer to the game than they ever would otherwise.

We had an amazing time this weekend at Grayson Stadium! It's a historic stadium with some really…read moreneat history and now the home of the Savannah Bananas. There are so many great details in this stadium, it's obvious that time went into every decision within. Some things to note: all tickets for Banana league games include unlimited food. This DOES start outside of the stadium during the pre-show. We weren't sure when the free food started so we ate beforehand and now we know. There is some free parking but it's limited so either Uber/Lyft or take your chances. If you get there early enough you shouldn't have an issue finding parking. Left Field Landing tickets include alcohol which does NOT start outside of the gates during the pre-show which was totally fine. We got there early to participate in the pre-game festivities. We opted for the Left Field Landing tickets for Party Animals v Clowns. We weren't sure how the drink rails would be but honestly, i'm so happy we chose that area. For an additional $5 we got all you can drink beer and seltzers. This included several local beers, including the official Savannah Bananas beer and your typical domestic brews + Nutrl seltzer. There was a dedicated bar just for the drink rails area and it was never busy. We did NOT have seats but we had drink rails that we could lean on and put our food/drinks on which was totally fine. Make sure to try and get a spot as far to the right as possible. If you are too far left you can't see the jumbo tron, thats the only drawback to this area. The time of our game was at 1pm and we were concerned about being in the direct sun but with the location of the drink rails, the entire section was fully shaded. People behind home plate and in the closer seating were in the direct sun. I'd take no seating with shade over a seat in the direct sun any day. Unlimited food included chicken sandwiches, hamburger/cheeseburgers, hot dogs, chips, popcorn, cookies, soda, water and popcorn. I was concerned that lines would be long and it would be difficult to actually get food/drinks but I never waited in any food or drink line for more than 1 minute. Aside from the included items there were some extras like Leopolds Ice Cream, cotton candy, trash can nachos, etc. I got some banana cotton candy to take home ($5) and a ice cream float ($8) with banana cream soda (omg it was so good!), vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. If you don't have the ticket type with drinks included, alcoholic bevvies were very reasonable, almost cheap! Beers were $6, which would normally be $15 or more at most other stadiums and cocktails were $11 which again would be probably double that at any other sporting event. Even though our section was in the outfield, we still were able to see the game and I personally did not feel "left out". The outfielders engaged with us and the party team came to our section many times. The game was engaging, entertaining and fun! We traveled from Orlando for this game and I wold absolutely travel again. The stadium is small so every seat is good and it feels intimate. The prices for food and drink are so inexpensive and the fact that food is included in the ticket price makes it worth it to travel. With our all inclusive tickets I fully expected to be let down or frustrated at some point. Usually when something is like this it's too good to be true so I expected some fine print stipulation or long lines but it never happened! The Fans First approach was truly apparent here and I'm so thankful that business models like this exist! We loved Savannah Bananas already but the more I learn, the more I admire the company!
