July 20, 2016

'Pokemon Go' has taken over the world — and one Gwinnett city's food truck event.

The city of Sugar Hill announced on Facebook that this week's "Thursdays at The Hill" festivities will not only include mobile eats but also serve as a gathering point for players of the massively popular smartphone game (which, for the unfamiliar, is explained here and here.).

The event begins at 6 p.m. Thursday at 5039 West Broad St.

Food trucks scheduled to attend include Grubbin' Out, Hibachi World, Daddy O'Brien's, Bucket O'Shrimp and Not As Famous Cookies.
