WFNZ arrived in Atlanta on Tuesday for Super Bowl Radio Row and things couldn't get started without Hitman going to the SB Media Party. 

All of the media across the world attending the Super Bowl were invited to a night at the Georgia Aquarium with food, drinks and even a Sea Lion performance! 

While Mac, T-Bone, Nick and Rec-Specs decided to stay back at the #WFNZHouse, Hitman and our Digital Guy Jason, went to see what this party was all about. And boy, it was interesting.

We take a look at some of the best moments of the party not just from Hitman, but from around Twitter.

To start the night, Hitman immediately fell in love. With the fish...

Shortly after, we ran into WCNC's Kelsey Riggs and Sporting News' Karisa Maxwell to hang out with for the night.

There was plenty of food to go around that included hot dogs, chicken, key lime pies, tacos and Wolfgang Puck, who made an appearance himself.

After filling up on some food and drinks, we continued to take a tour of the aquarium and found some Cleaner Shrimp. They're supposedly supposed to clean out all the harm in your hands. Hitman tried. 

From there, the media was able to enjoy some great music with some MORE drinks around the sea life.

As the night went on, it was time for the Sea Lion show. The rumor was that it couldn't be missed and Hitman couldn't hold back his excitement. 

About to watch Sea Lions exhibit @GeorgiaAquarium at Media Party. And I might sit in the first row. Where you could get wet. This is Awkward. Meanwhile @TBoneWFNZ @macwfnz @NickWilsonWFNZ @RyanChellWFNZ are sleeping. #SBLIII #ATL #wfnz #WFNZHouse.

Overall, it was a great first night in Atlanta. And it's too bad everyone aside from Hitman and Jason decided to miss out. Maybe next time? 

Continue to stay tuned all week for Super Bowl Radio Row coverage!
