Hard Rock Cafe Atlanta  is ready to party like it's 1971!

To celebrate the opening of the first-ever Hard Rock Cafe in London on June 14, 1971, Hard Rock Cafe Atlanta is swapping badges for burgers and offering civil servants any Legendary Burger for 71-cents from 11 a.m. to midnight today only.

The restaurant is also hosting a burger eating contest for local firemen, police and ambassadors from 2-4 p.m. in the Velvet Underground. The contest includes teams of Atlanta civil servants competing to win a year of bragging rights and a special trophy. Hard Rock Cafe Atlanta will make donations to each of the participating team’s charity of choice.
