Herschel Walker took his campaign to the city in which he led the University of Georgia to a national championship in 1980 and won the Heisman trophy in 1982.
Walker was on a different assignment.
Just hours before Georgia was set to play the University of Tennessee, the Republican Senate nominee was in town to rally support for his candidacy.
Getting Walker into the Senate in one of the nation's most competitive contests and blocking Democrats from passing their agenda was paramount for supporters in the audience.
Despite reports that Walker paid for the abortions of at least two women, rally goers were largely unperturbed.
Frank, a long time Georgia fan who did not reveal his last name, told Insider that he wondered why Walker had run in the first place, given his previous success in football, but was strongly supportive of his campaign.
He seems to want to learn more and is tough. He has proven his football star status. He just wants to do something different. All of us have problems.
Frank thinks it's important for Republicans to regain control of the Senate.
When the opposing party's congressional majority was brought up, attendees were excited because the chamber currently split 50-50, with Vice President Harris' tiebreaking vote giving Democrats a majority.
There were a lot of campaign signs railing against the Democratic senator.
Rick Scott, the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, spoke before Walker and tossed red meat to the audience, saying that he must like high gas prices.
Walker criticized Warnock for his legislative record as an ally of President Joe Biden during his remarks. He spoke out against the use of "pronouns" in the military.
Two years have passed. Can you tell me what we have? Walker asked the crowd of people what they thought of the man. Is it possible to give him 6 more years? He's making fun of himself.
Many people at the rally felt that Democratic governance had gotten out of hand.
In an interview with Insider, she said she was confident in Walker's campaign and hoped that he could address the border.
She thinks the Senate nominee will pull it through.
I don't think our country is going in the right direction. Herschel said that there's a lot of evil forces in the world and that God has given us an ultimatum. She said that if you turn this around you will suffer the consequences.
