Post Modern: When you're out enjoying the Homecoming festivities this weekend, try stopping by one of Athens' many food trucks. They have been a favorite of Bobcats for generations.
"Food trucks in Athens have been around for decades and continue to be a stop for the people in town. Lauren Guest, a sophomore studying psychology, said her mom introduced her to Burrito Buggy.
“My mom went to school here and my mom said, ‘Lauren, you have to try it,’ and I love it,” she said.
Guest said she goes to Burrito Buggy once every few weeks and that she likes to order any of the vegetarian options, especially the rice and salsa.
