The Atlanta Motor Speedway will host evacuees from Dorian,

according to an Atlanta tv station news report. Bring your tent, sleeping bag, whatever camp equipment you have. I have no idea how potable water will be supplied, if FEMA is in this game, or maybe some churches or the state.

Anyone know more? What about other places?

71,000 can sit in the grandstands, with room for the rest in the infield. There's no telling how many can be accommodated with camper hookups outside the venue.
