Thanks to everyone that provided their feedback on the situation. Dh and I decided that either he goes with his friend (who needs to decide today), or BIL will just try to sell the tickets on eBay or something.
Golf isn't necessarily my cup of tea, but I understand it, and respect it. I completely comprehend how big the Masters is and would love to exprience it. However, when doing the numbers, it would be quite costly, even if not visiting family / friends. I would eventually have to take days off w/out pay and that cost needs to be included into the picture.
My best friend is in ATL, but comes down a lot to visit her family, so I see her a few times a yr, plus, this yr she's moving to Tampa, so a lot more manageable to visit.
As for family, my godparents (aunt / uncle) live outside of ATL, and so do 5 of my cousins, and their spouses and children. My uncle lives 1/2 the time down here due to business, so I see him often. My aunt comes often too to visit their other 2 children. However, my cousins don't, and hanging out w/ them would be fun. Hopefully another opportunity to visit GA comes up soon!
