"The Rusty Nail, a dive bar known for its distinctive ambiance and 18-foot gun-shaped smoker, is closing after nearly 50 years on Buford Highway. It offered a varied menu, weekly trivia, drink specials, and was famous for its wings, fish and chips, barbecue plates, burgers, and lasagna." - Beth McKibben
