The Braves never needed a new stadium. Turner Field was a good enough replacement for Fulton County Stadium, but nooooo. Might as well change the name to The Smyrna Braves.
I am extremely glad the Braves gave Kasim Reed the middle finger and moved.
How many sports franchises left Atlanta under his rule?
BTW, I live in Gwinnett county and got screwed with our stadium.

The Braves moved to escape Atlanta politics and to improve the fan drive/ experience/safety.
Or they can be called “the Fulton County tax and corruption free Braves”
I’m sure Braves researched the zip codes of their fans and it turned out most of them are from north of Atlanta. So that’s why they’re building a new stadium in Cobb County.
