Yup, the third location of Hov’s swanky 40/40 club has officially opened at at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the Associated Press [reports](http://bigstory.ap.org/article/jay-z-opens-4040-club-atlanta-airport). And really, why not? Jay Z can do whatever the heck he wants. Remember: he’s not a businessman, [he’s a business, man](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WVs3eyfl8Q). The original 40/40 is in Manhattan, with an additional location in Brooklyn. This new airport version will basically be a “scaled down” replica of original club, and there are plans in the works to create a special VIP section. Otherwise, details are pretty scarce. Here’s hoping the soundtrack exclusively consists of Aziz Ansari’s club anthem, because it feels like it would be a great fit.
