Normaltown Automatic Pizza

Normaltown, Athens, GA

As a B-52’s fan, a must on my list of places to stop on our trip through Georgia was Athens. I didn’t know much about Athens aside from some local references from their songs. Since Deadbeat Club has the most references, I decided to direct our GPS to Normaltown and blast the song!

Although Allen’s closed in 2011, we took a drive around town and found Automatic Pizza, a pizza place that looked like an old gas station (and probably was at one point). It was perfect for our road trip theme and we were ready for lunch so we parked and walked in to order pizza. It almost reminded us of pizzerias from back home (though, no pizza can compare to the NJ/NYC area) and the pizza hit the spot. I think I would go back again the next time I visit Normaltown (and yes, there will be a next time) and I was glad to get some photos of the outside!

I fell in love with travel at a young age when my parents would take us on road trips around the country. I inherited my goal to see all 50 states from my dad and am currently at 32 (and counting) – which roughly translates to 1 state per year I’ve been alive 😉 When Dom and I started dating, we discovered our mutual love for travel and that sparked an interest in traveling together. We planned to travel part of Route 66 on our honeymoon and then East Coast trips, and day trips – the more obscure the destination, the better! While I may not be the one doing all the driving, I enjoy planning our routes, finding stops along our route, and navigating as we go. I’m also the one jumping between the front and back seat when we have our daughter – who took her first 12-state road trip at 6 months old – along for the ride. Aside from travel and my family, my other love is a good theme and the excuse to dress up for it.
