Georgia Southern student Ethan Castaneda, 18, of Lawrenceville wanders downtown on his bike after classes Thursday in front of 40 East Grill's window display for the True Blue Spirit Business competition during Paint the Town Blue week.
Georgia Southern’s first home game as a member of college football’s highest division Saturday prompted a weeklong celebration that spilled over into downtown Statesboro. Businesses decorated their storefronts in Eagle blue. An on-campus event was held Thursday afternoon encouraging students to celebrate responsibly, and Thursday evening saw a block party close off East Vine and Railroad streets downtown.
