Do you know what MARTA really stands for?

When I used to go visit my LSU buddy Roy King (Former Tiger Band Director that shouldn't have been) when he was a high school band director in the Atlanta area, he told me that MARTA stood for: "Moving Americans Rapidly Through Atlanta."

Many years later when I was playing in North Georgia Pipes & Drums, I used to fly in from New Orleans and take MARTA from the Airport all the way to the furthest point North, where a band member would pick me up.

I never had any kind of problem on "Moving Americans Rapidly Through Atlanta" and enjoyed the ride while viewing all the traffic jams when the Tram got close to the Interstate.

MARTA really stands for "Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority".........
