Peacock’s “Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist” will be making several stops throughout Atlanta to celebrate the series ahead of its launch on Peacock on September 5.
Based on the acclaimed iHeart true-crime podcast, the series follows the infamous story of how an armed robbery on the night of Muhammad Ali’s historic 1970 comeback fight changed not only one man’s life but ultimately transformed Atlanta into the “Black Mecca.”
On Saturday, August 24, Peacock will be spotlighting local Black-owned businesses in Atlanta by partnering to offer throwback prices at historical and beloved establishments throughout the city, including Paschal’s and Clermont Hotel, which are both featured in the series.
Peacock is also partnering with local up-and-coming artists, E.L. Chisolm and Yuzly Mathurin, to design four custom murals around Atlanta to spotlight these businesses.
