Although many pretenders claim the ti- tle, the Varsity, World ' s Largest Drive-in, has to be the most popular Georgia Tech hangout. Over the years, it has developed into not only a Tech tradition, but also an Atlanta institution. Legend states that former Tech student Frank Gordy found- ed the fast food restaurant upon his academic dismissal from Tech. He was dissatisfied mXh the orange-flavored soft drinks popular at the time, so he created his own blend. The Varsity Orange may now be one of the more obscure menu items today, upstaged by the more popular and recent frosted orange, or F.O., but it was a hit then and with the famous Varsity hot dogs, launched Gordy ' s place on the road to legendary status. Today the Varsity claims to be the single largest seller of fountain Coca-Cola products in the world. Maligned for serving its food too greasy, the restaurant has nevertheless developed a fiercely loyal clientele of students, families, white collar workers from nearby businesses, indeed, the en- tire spectrum of humanity. Its efficient service has always been a trademark and its old slogan no food over 12 hours old is no stranger to this campus. The food may no longer be nearly nearly as in- expensive as it was years ago, but a filling meal can still be procured for about $2.50. Although the Varsity changed slogans this year to the fun place to eat, its role in the development of the character of this campus is clearly demonstrated before each home football game. So crowded is the facility that outside tables are set up to handle the massive overflow of students, alumni and local loyalists. At least one Georgia Tech legend still lives.
