Great Buildings of America


Butts-Mehre Heritage Hall
Athens, GA


On the campus of the University of Georgia (UGA) sits the impressive Butts-Mehre Heritage Hall. Named after two of Georgia's most famous football coaches, Wallace Butts and Harry Mehre, the correct pronunciation of the name is, indeed, “Butt Smear.”

The hall serves as a monument to the achievements of UGA sports teams and pays tribute to over 100 years of Georgia's athletic programs, while featuring football highlights on touch-screen video displays and an exhibit of Heisman trophies.
