@georgeja48 Awesome to hear, George. Enjoy!

@FletcherPage I am sure Loran and I will have a usual Sunday conversation under the oak tree on the Veranda at the Club House. A tradition since I have known Loran in the late 70's. PS: My first Masters was 3 years after his, as a 14yr old in 1963.

Georgia Bulldogs legend Loran Smith watched Arnold Palmer win the 1960 Masters. Smith, 87, has returned every year since, still searching for stories to tell ajc.com/sports/2026/04…

Thomasville high schooler and UGA golf signee Mason Howell got his first taste of the Masters this week. A full-circle moment Friday was more evidence it won’t be his last at Augusta National. ajc.com/sports/2026/04…

@Tas_SmithSr Thanks!

This is awesome @FletcherPage

As a toddler, Mason Howell launched rocks in South Georgia with plastic golf clubs and begged his dad to take him to the range. Next week — before graduating high school — the UGA signee will tee off at the Masters. ajc.com/news/2026/03/g…

Two decades after he gave a "galvanizing" speech on the eve of UGA's 2005 SEC championship season, D.J. Shockley will return to Sanford Stadium to deliver another one. That's a good excuse to write about one of the most beloved players in Bulldogs history ajc.com/news/2026/03/d…

“I don’t think I ever ran into anybody who loved Georgia more.” Though Loran Smith officially retired earlier this year from UGA, he never really left. The 87-year-old remains same as always — chasing the next great Georgia Bulldogs story. ajc.com/news/2025/12/w…

Ahkil Crumpton found guilty of murder for the 2021 shooting of Oconee County RaceTrac clerk Elijah Wood. Jury deliberated for just 38 minutes. Crumpton, a former University of Georgia football player, is already serving a 30-year federal sentence. ajc.com/news/2025/12/e…

Charles Hosch made the 2.5-mile trek to Blood Mountain's summit on Nov. 11 to collect dirt from what he considered a sacred place. He spoke to two men near the top and was headed back down. After that, Hosch vanished. ajc.com/news/2025/12/n…

The delay caused by the Gainesville-Brunswick melee isn’t new for the GHSA playoffs. Fifty years ago, a hotly disputed final seconds of the 1975 Douglass-Lakeside semifinal spiraled into 10 days of rulings. Only, rather than punches, there was a clock. ajc.com/news/2025/12/g…

Elijah Wood, the 23-year-old RaceTrac gas station clerk killed in 2021, performed a “noble job” by covering the graveyard shift for a sick co-worker, prosecutors said Monday in opening statements at the murder trial of the man accused of gunning him down. ajc.com/news/2025/12/r…

@thetvpages Thanks!

@FletcherPage Great article @FletcherPage !

If you ever stood in line for fried chicken or pork chops or steak and gravy, you know it isn’t just lunch. It’s Athens. Weaver D's is up for sale again — for real this time, Dexter says — and it feels like the end of something we’ll never see again. ajc.com/news/2025/11/a…

Georgia football’s game against Texas this weekend already set records well before kickoff. The Athens-Ben Epps Airport will handle the most incoming and outgoing weekend flights in its 100-plus-year history. ajc.com/news/2025/11/a…

This is the best story that will come out of Athens this weekend. @FletcherPage knocks it out of the park on Weaver D’s ajc.com/news/2025/11/a…

You should read every word of this ⁦@FletcherPage⁩ profile of Dexter Weaver. An Athens institution who has been “Automatic for the People” for decades. Weaver D's, famous for R.E.M. album title, leaves bigger stamp on Athens ajc.com/news/2025/11/a…

Since Sanford Stadium opened in 1929, it has been reshaped, expanded & modernized into one of college football’s premier venues. But one original feature has gone mostly untouched for nearly a century: a concrete culvert buried beneath the stadium. ajc.com/news/2025/09/o…

UPDATE: Reports of an armed shooter at the University of Georgia campus seem to point toward a hoax, school officials announced. Those on campus are being asked to avoid the area. More updates here: ajc.com/news/2025/08/a…
