Ok, I'm being a little lazy here, but I was hoping someone could just let me in on a little info without having to research it myself.

My dad has been going on and on about going to the Masters some day, and since I'm staying in Cartersville next month, and I like what I'm familiar with, and I'll have been familiar with the Allatoona area by next year, I was thinking of going again and taking my dad to the Masters, and making a hike over to Augusta from Allatoona.

How far is it from Allatoona? Where from, and how much for can I get Masters tickets?

I've been to 1 major before (Whistling Straights last year), so I know it's going to cost me an arm and a leg, but I got those tickets through someone who was working at the event (still had to pay though). So how do I go about getting tickets to the Masters? Anything else I should know about going?
