I took my son (14 years) here on his insistence. I like college football but am not really a fanatic. But I must say the interactive nature of this museum completely won me over! The admission is reasonable. Your ticket is a card on a lanyard. Upon entering, you register "your school" and it attaches the info to your ticket. As you approach each exhibit, it can scan your card and bring up information related to your school. It was very cool!
The Hall of Fame was OK, but it was much smaller than I expected. I was expecting to see many more artifacts and displays. By far the most impressive thing is in the lobby where they have all of the football helmets on the wall. The interactive aspects of the exhibits are kind of neat, too. I just wish they had more items.
My family came down to visit and we decided to go into Atlanta. When deciding what to do my wife suggested the College Football Hall of Fame. We had a great time. The interactive features really make the visit.
Our company rented this venue for a fun work event. A high school band played drums, we kicked and threw footballs, and toured the interactive exhibits. They had several bars and food stations for our large group and we didn't wait long in either lines. Believe it or not, the sushi station was exceptional! And the dessert bar with the peanut ball Popsicles was delectable!
For any college football fan, young or old, this is the spot to visit in Atlanta. There is not only a great college of memorabilia, but also a strong sense of history and honor. Don't forget to kick your own field goal too before leaving!
I went to this venue as a conference attendee so I didn't choose it as a destination but left pleasantly surprised that I had fun. For a true college football fan this is a must!
This is how all museums should be...fun and interactive. Honestly all the exhibits are incredible. And the fact that I can pick my fav team and the exhibits cater to that is unreal! It was worth every penny...absolutely love this place
Not wonderful. Higher expectations for artifacts and records and such. Hi-tech things were nice. Geared toward young I guess.
We thoroughly enjoyed the CFHoF. It's location is very good, in close proximity to CNN, World of Coke, Centennial Olympic Park and the Georgia Dome. The exhibits are nice and the electronic personalization was great. The people who work there are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I loved being able to record narration to some of my favorite college football plays and the wall of helmets that light up for you is really cool. The mural is well-done and the kids will love the partial football field area. I will be back, in a year or two. I hope they keep it fresh as well as continue to add items for display. The only negative I saw was that the actual Hall of Fame area (where they listed the players and coaches) seemed rather bland.
We had a meal and tour. It was closed for our private party.This place would be good for young children or a bunch of guys prior to game, as they have several interactive modules and a place for them to kick a field goal and throw footballs.Several nice relics from CFB.Good film on floor 2.Spend time hearing videos from HOFers on the 3rd floor.A serious football fan would spend 2-3 hours.
