The losing mayor will be serving on the lunch line of the winning high school.
Alpharetta Mayor David Belle Isle and Milton Mayor Joe Lockwood have put bragging rights for their cities on the line with a bet over the Alpharetta Raiders vs. Milton Eagles high school football game on Aug. 31.

The two mayors plan to be present at the first game of the high school football season for both teams, which will be Alpharetta's home …
