5 PARTIES | BEARS VS FALCONS WEEKEND | #ChiNATL

Alright, homegirls and homeboys, listen up because I’ve got the scoop on a weekend that’s about to be lit! Get ready for the 5 PARTIES | BEARS VS FALCONS WEEKEND | #ChiNATL kicking off right here in Atlanta. This whole weekend, from Friday, October 16th to Sunday, October 18th, is all about celebrating the Chicago Bears and Atlanta Falcons game happening on Sunday, and it’s rolling right into Clark Atlanta University’s Homecoming festivities. You know what that means, right? Good vibes, good food, and good people from both cities coming together.

To kick things off, you absolutely need to hit up Spanky’s Chicken & Seafood Lounge on Friday, October 16th, starting at 8:00 PM. This Decatur gem, located on Candler Road, is a true neighborhood favorite, serving up some serious comfort food that hits the spot every single time. We’re talking about a Black-owned spot known for its “King of turkey legs,” collard green gumbo that will surprise you in the best way, and hot lemon pepper catfish that’ll make you say “OMG” out loud. Seriously, their menu is stacked with delicious soul food, chicken, and seafood options like ribs, shrimp, and even Cajun pasta.

This #ChiNATL weekend is all about bringing that distinct flavor of Chicago and Atlanta together, creating an unforgettable experience. Think of it as a cultural exchange wrapped in a party, with a battle of Chicago DJs and ATL DJs spinning the tracks that will keep you on your feet. You can expect some tasty Chicago cuisine alongside our beloved Atlanta Southern specials, so your taste buds are in for a treat too. It’s the perfect opportunity to rock your favorite NFL apparel, whether you’re repping the Bears or the Falcons, or show off your D9 Greek or PWI and HBCU Alumni pride.

Spanky’s is the perfect spot to start your #ChiNATL weekend right, setting the tone for a full three days of fun.
