Just like that, the WFNZ trip to Atlanta for Radio Row and it will be a week to remember. Spending four days in the ATL and three on Radio Row, there was plenty to talk about, a plethora of guests to speak with and a ton of memories to take back to the Queen City.
Here is a recap of the final day on Radio Row.
The Mac Attack:
The final day of Radio Row was also the 10th Anniversary of Mac and T-Bone being on The Mac Attack together. Not many radio stations are able to complete that feat, so it was a pretty special day.
10 years of great sports talk with The Mac Attack. Congrats on one decade @macwfnz and @TBoneWFNZ! pic.twitter.com/uBinOaa6W6

February 1, 2019 During the 8 a.m. hour, breaking news came out via the Panthers social media that 9x Pro Bowler Julius Peppers would be calling it a career. Something that would become a huge talking point throughout the rest of the day.

Paramount Sports' Lee Sterling joined Mac and Bone over the phones to talk about the Super Bowl and what bets are best to take.
ESPN's Chris Spatola jumped on the phone lines to talk NC State basketball.
And the final guest of the week to visit Mac and Bone was Action Network's Darren Rovell.
After a long week, Mac and Bone headed home. Not without possibly seeing Cam Newton on the way back.

February 1, 2019 Wilson And Parcell:
Former NFL player Neil Smith joined the guys with the owner of our sponser, the Low T Center, to discuss his experiences in the big game.
Panthers WR Jarius Wright made an appearance to discuss this past season and his thoughts on Cam Newton's shoulder.
In The Clubhouse With Kyle Bailey:
And for the final show of the week, Kyle was joined by ProFootballFocus' Darrin Gantt to cap things off.
Before the show, Kyle had a conversation with NFL Hall of Famer Rod Woodson.
Then, Ron Rivera made another appearance by calling into the show.
As the day winded down, we saw an actual Patriots GOAT walking around and a line longer than you can imagine waiting for autographs from Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes.
