Kirby Smart, Georgia arrive to rowdy Georgia fans in Athens following national championship win
Kirby Smart and Georgia have arrived back home in Athens, less than 24 hours after beating TCU for its 2nd straight national championship on Monday night at SoFi Stadium.
After one final press conference on Tuesday morning, the team boarded a cross-country flight from Los Angeles to Atlanta. From there, they boarded a bus for the drive to Athens. UGASports.com’s Dayne Young posted a video of Smart greeting Georgia students and fans immediately after getting off the bus:
The Georgia Bulldogs are home as back-to-back national champions.
Kirby Smart got off the bus and immediately made a lap around to greet the fans who welcomed them home.

The celebrations will continue all week in the Classic City for the Dawgs. On Saturday, a parade is planned for 12:30 p.m. that will make its way down Lumpkin Street, which runs through the UGA campus, and end at Sanford Stadium, where Smart and his team will be honored for their 2nd straight title at a ceremony that is set to begin at 2 p.m.
So with all the coin the CFP pulls in, they couldn’t charter one or two planes directly in and out of Athens? Pitiful. (I am assuming the CFP pays for the airfare)
It’s a very small airport – primarily single engine planes and private jets. Puddle-jumpers can get in and out comfortably but the bigger passenger jets can’t.
Isn’t it interesting that the Georgia fans will celebrate at the Golden Corral…
Snaggle tooth buffoons…
Isn’t it interesting that that’s the best insult you can manufacture?
It didn’t take a bit of my joy as a UGA fan who’s celebrating BACK to BACK natty’s!
Hopefully your biomedical research will solve the problem of how to unfück yourself. Best of luck with that, but I’m not holding my breath.
biomed…All real SEC fans are happy that the Georgia Bulldogs have won The national Championship. But you, being a Vol fan, must throw insults to a great group of fans. One good season of Vol football has mad your fan base totally crazy, to say the least. The life of a Vol fan must be really sad. Heup will never ever take you to the Promised-Land.
Isn’t it interesting that 3 snaggle tooth rednecks with their Billy Beer in hand respond…
Don’t forget to fix the hole in your bass boat, which is a canoe…
3 buttercups…
Go Vols!
