Say what, Atlanta?

At first glance, a post on the Facebook page "City of Atlanta Georgia" seems to take direct aim at Alabamians headed to the Georgia capital to see the Crimson Tide take on the Florida State Seminoles on Saturday.

"People from Alabama will be here for the college football game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. If there are any altercations, we encourage you to take the higher road, as they are a much lower class of people," the Thursday post noted.

The "official" city post prompted the reactions you'd expect.

"You are a poor example of a city and a government organization," one commenter said.

"This is totally offensive and inappropriate. I'm ashamed of the City of Atlanta," another added.

There's just one thing, however. The Facebook page is a phony, set up last year by Atlanta comedian Ben Palmer. The page - which contains a near-replica of the city of Atlanta logo at the top - has been liked more than 95,000 people.

Not everyone is a fan, however, most notably the real city of Atlanta, which uses its Facebook page "City of Atlanta Government" to provide actual updates of what's going on.

Last year, the city demanded Palmer take down his page, citing copyright infringement on the Atlanta's trademark.

"The First Amendment allows people to express their opinions concerning their government in many ways, including satire. However, no person has the right to use a trademark in a manner that deceives or confuses the public," a city spokesperson told 11Alive.

Palmer responded by changing the logo - the phoenix on the fake page now wears a hat and a monocle - and issuing a rather unique series of demands. In exchange for removing the logo and taking down his Facebook page, Palmer asked for $60 in cash and two free rides on the city's trolley and that all his parking tickets be removed.

Those demands weren't met and Palmer's page remains on Facebook.

The Alabama football jab isn't the only time Palmer has taken aim at Georgia's neighbor to the west. In July, Palmer posted those taking issues with the city's new rainbow sidewalk can "easily purchase a one-way ticket to a lesser city, like Chattanooga or Birmingham."

Palmer saves some of the best lines for his own city, however.

"If you see an explosion while driving, please continue driving. Do not slow down for the explosion. It's just an explosion. We have them all the time," a July post noted.

"If you just moved here, please come to our office to pick up your parking ticket. New residents receive one parking ticket to help them get used to life in Atlanta," another post said.

"We have decided to build another football stadium next to the new stadium we are currently building which is next to the current stadium which is perfectly fine. We do not have any plans for the new new stadium but just wanted to show people we could have 3 stadiums at once," Palmer wrote on the page.
