    To deal with the coronavirus pandemic, many stores are dedicating the first hour of their operations to senior citizens, who are having a hard time shopping during the rush.

    Coronavirus Store Hours: See Senior Hours For These Retailers

    Stores like Whole Foods, Walmart, Target and more have all made the adjustment to cater to seniors as many shoppers have resorted to panic buying.

    Here are the stores with senior hours in your local area:

    Hidden gems in Atlanta

    Prime Meridian is one of the best upscale restaurants in Atlanta. Because it is primarily located primarily in a business district, many families don’t know about the daily buffets and gourmet desserts.

    If you’re in the mood for a hidden gem with an open kitchen, come to the Omni Hotel’s South Tower at Prime Meridian.

    Here’s what one reviewer says about The Foundry at Puritan Mill in Atlanta: “This location is like a hidden gem in the mist. Open floor plan, soothing lighting and inviting. It was a good spot for the wedding. We really enjoyed the space. I wish I’d taken more pix of the space but I was caught up with everyone enjoying the place.”

    Here’s what one reviewer says about the Swan House mansion at Atlanta History Center: “This is an incredibly Hidden Gem in the center of Atlanta. There are 30 Acres of Gardens and grounds to walk and the structure is absolutely astronomical and fresa. There is such a mix of different elements of other European countries. The building reflects a deep tone of Italy and French and also Spanish influences.”

    Peach Bowl 2019 Results In Atlanta: LSU 63-Oklahoma 28

    3 Min Read

    LSU whipped the Oklahoma Sooners 63-28 in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl on Saturday evening. The game was played at the enormous Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

    Here are five things to know about the game, which sets up an LSU-Clemson national championship game.

    1. Peach Bowl Attendance Sets Record

    The 2019 Peach Bowl broke an attendance record, with 78,347 counted in the stadium.

    2. Peach Bowl Win Puts LSU In Record Books

    With the win, LSU improved to 14-0, a win total they have never reached before. But the Tigers broke several records behind the Heisman-winning quarterback Joe Burrow.

    3. Tale Of Two Quarterbacks

    On paper, LSU and Oklahoma were statistically identical, but the game really came down to the two quarterbacks.

    “What a tremendous job by everybody,” Orgeron said. “One team, one heartbeat. Everybody in our organization. We got tremendous play by Joe Burrow and have a great coaching staff.”

    4. ESPN Reporter Among 5 Dead In Plane Crash

    Carley McCord, a Louisiana sports reporter and the daughter-in-law of LSU OC Steve Ensminger, was among those who died in a plane crash while en route to the Tigers game in Atlanta.

     

    Atlanta has been a college football oasis for the LSU Tigers. Burrow has thrown 11 touchdowns there just in the month of December alone. But will he win the ‘chip?
