Umm Can I say it is the home of CNN's headquarters?
In reality it is just a weird personal issue. I have done a conference there for three summers. I end up at the Marriott Marquis beautiful hotel, I love Piedmont Park. However, every time I step out of the hotel there is a guy yelling at me to hold up because they want to show me something. This happens multiple times in one outing and it is such a bizarre and frustrating behavior. During my time when the person has caught up to show me something they have tried to sell me an open disposable camera for $20, a loose cigarette for a $1, a five pack of Coca Cola for $5, and a 1990s gameboy for $100, among various other miscellaneous items. I have also been propositioned to help a stranger tag team a pair of girls the next block over and once a guy that told me his sister thought I was attractive and wanted to hookup with me. While this behavior might not be unique to Atlanta it is the only city I have been to an experienced such annoying and odd requests.
