Peachtree Tickets belongs to the NATB (National Association of Ticket Brokers), meaning we must adhere to a strict guideline of rules and ethics, unlike many of the other "fly by night" internet ticket brokers. In fact, many of the other ticket brokers out there don't even have any of their own tickets in inventory, but only resell other brokers tickets with aggressive ad campaiging, internet engine trickery, and other fly-by-night tactics. Many of the large "Ticket Hubs" just charge you a large fee on top of the ticket price just to offset the costs they incur in marketing these tickets to you, with no advantage to you, the customer.

ATLANTA HISTORY

Since its beginnings, Atlanta has been an awkward "Southern" City, an area that sat in the old South, but attracted many from different areas. Founded as a rail terminus, ante-bellum Atlanta was a small, somewhat rough about the edges railroad crossing. Mannerisms of a vast amount of the people there were more like the frontier towns of the Old West than the mint julep and magnolia cities of the Old South. Transportation has always been and remains today the catalyst for Atlanta’s growth and economic vitality. Atlanta has always attracted men and women of vision people with the foresight to provide the facilities that would make Atlanta the most significant city in the Southeast.

Long before European settlements, The area of modern-day Atlanta was inhabited by the Creek and Cherokee Indians. The United States in the middle of the War of 1812 when the anglo settlement, Fort Peachtree, was established on the banks of the Chattahoochee River near the Cherokee village of Standing Peachtree. The Creek Nation ceded their lands to the State of Georgia in the year of 1825. The Cherokees lived with their white neighbors until 1835 when the leaders of the Cherokee nation agreed to leave their lands and move west under the Treaty of New Echota. It was then when Georgia officially took possession of Cherokee lands, which led to the event referred to as the Trail of Tears.

Atlanta was an area of significance to the region when the Civil War broke out. With four rail lines, a population of some 10,000, 3,800 homes, iron foundries, mills, warehouses, carriage and wheelwright shops, tanneries, banks and various small manufacturing and retail shops, Atlanta had become the supply and shipping center of the Confederate Army. It was Atlanta's sheer importance with what it provided to the South and the confederacy which made it a necessary target for Sherman in his war plan.

After a month long seige by Shermans's troops and retreating Confederate troops who blew up 81 boxcars of esplosives in the city, Atlanta was a ghost town of rubble and flames, with only 400 structures still left standing when Sherman started his march to the sea. Retruning Atlantas came back to see their city still smoldering when they returned to rebuild. However, in only five years after the razing of Atlanta to the ground, Atlanta had doubled its pre-war population and a new city had risen up from its ashes.
