Gay ATL stages #joininghearts Instagram takeover

Add this share

If you’re gay on Instagram in Atlanta, you were inundated with images from Joining Hearts on Saturday. Ogling the bash’s crowd, studs and dance moves was the next best thing to being there.

Not content to leave the eye-popping Joining Hearts ab-liciousness to the professionals, Atlanta’s #instagay nation started noticing anticipatory lead-up pics on Friday that promised a not-so hostile takeover of Piedmont Park. By Saturday, we were regularly searching the hashtags #jh27, #joininghearts and #joininghearts2014 for updates.

It was enough to give us all we could handle of the gay goings on. Here are some of our favorite moments.

Unpack disco ball, open floodgates.

 

Give them something to wear.

 

And something to suck on. Meaning, themey #summertimetreats

 

Yes, build it, and they will come.

 

With their #saysomething fans.

 
 

 

And their #headbands.

 

 

Right on cue, they will come in #pairs.

 

And in #threesomes.

 

 

They’ll come in #fourways.

 

And they are #downforgroups.

 

They’ll even find #love.

 

And they’ll definitely serve #face.

 

It’s Joining hearts. So you know damn well, they’ll dance.

 

And avoid the pool by the hundreds.

 

 

Breaks are mandatory.

 
 

Don’t forget to eye the hunky sights (while they eye you right back) .

 

Speaking of eyeing the sights, how about those fireworks this year?

 
 

And the semi-famous gay-lebrities like Rodiney Santiago?

 

You know you loved it. We sure did. See ya next year.
