BLASPHEMER!!!! We earned that nickname because of the number of Universities located here...just how many are in Athens now? The music here is also probably more varied than you might think...not just country anymore. Also, part of the name has to do with some of the Greek Rivival architecture here...what is Athens claim to any of this?
