    Topgolf, the sport-dining-entertainment complex that is packed every weekend night, is offering its customers a chance to win some big money and Under Amour swag. A 22-city Topgolf Tour will begin July July 29 and give fans a chance to compete against each other.

    The winning two-person team from each regional tournament will be dressed in Under Armour apparel and will earn a trip to Las Vegas for the Topgolf Tour Championship, “plus a chance at returning home with the $50,000 cash prize,” the company said in a press release.

    The tourney comes to Atlanta’s Topgolf location in Midtown on August 25

    Every registration will earmark $5 to the Veteran Golfers Association, which the 2018 Topgolf Tour is supporting.

    “Excitement for the Topgolf Tour builds every year. With players of all backgrounds competing, Topgolf truly is Everyone’s Game,” said Topgolf Media President YuChiang Cheng. “We are proud to introduce a military division and support the Veteran Golfers Association this year to provide a social and athletic outlet in which veterans can participate.”

    Regional tournaments will begin in various cities starting July 29 and ending Nov. 2. Positions will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Eligibility rules can be found online.

    The winning team will advance to the Topgolf Tour Championship Nov. 2-4 at Topgolf Las Vegas.

    “It was probably one of the cooler experiences of my life just from start to finish,” said 2017 Topgolf Tour Champion Chris Mabry, who competed from Kansas City with Champion teammate Kevin Ward.

    Report: Fox Theatre’s Marquee Club To Open In May
    craigsotherlistyahoo-com April 4, 2018
    2 Min Read

     The Marquee Club, the Fox Theatre’s premium space, is set to open in May, according to news reports.

    The club is said to have immaculate decor with Moroccan-style lounges, a sweeping rooftop terrace and premium food and beverage. The club’s grand opening, which was first reported in The AJC, will include with member access on Thursday, May 17 and non-member access launching Saturday May 19.

    When it was announced in 2016, Atlantans didn’t quite know what to make of the Marquee Club. Was it a nightclub? A holding space for celebrities and entertainers or what?

    “When you think of the Fox Theatre, you immediately envision our legendary twinkling marquee. Standing the test of time, the Fox Theatre marquee is a beacon for patrons of the performing arts and a signifier of nearly a decade of memories,” Allan C. Vella, Fox Theatre president and CEO said at the time. “When we were brainstorming the name, we kept circling back to that one image that holds a special place in the heart of Atlantans – the marquee. Soon after, the Marquee Club became official.”

    Guests will also get priority in ticketing options as well as other amenities connected to the $10 million renovation.

    “We see the Marquee Club as an extension of the Fox Theatre. Most obviously, the footprint but also in guest experience,” said Adina Erwin, Fox Theatre vice president and COO. “Working with Lord Aeck Sargent, a local architectural firm specializing in conservation and preservation of historic venues, we have taken great pains to ensure patrons enjoy elevated service while their transition from the theatre to the club is seamless in both feel and design.”

    Drink Of The Week: Pinewood’s ‘Lady James’
    craigsotherlistyahoo-com April 3, 2018
    1 Min Read

    If you’re looking for a citrus-y drink to get your engines revved juuuuust enough, then you’ll like what The Pinewood in Decatur is cooking up. The Decatur spot has quickly become known for its drinks, courtesy of its Whiskey Wednesday promotion.

    But I “digest”: What we want to talk about this week is The Pinewood’s “Lady James,” a mix of vodka, elderflower, rosemary, lemon, and blanc de blancs.

    This drink goes down smooth and is a perfect compliment to the indulges on the food side. Try it with the Anaheim Chicken Sandwich (toasted ciabatta, anaheim pepper, red onion, artisan lettuce, tomato, cheddar, remoulade) or the Ritz Cracker Crusted Chicken Breast (mashed potato, green beans, crystal gravy).
