On Saturday December 10, 2022 the Heavens opened to welcome Terry Lee Courson “TLC” to the largest sports arena, where he has front row seating to the Georgia Bulldogs, Atlanta Falcons, Braves and NASCAR. The fish and deer don’t have a chance now that he has a bird’s eye view and cannot avoid capture.
