Nothing excites a politician like the computer simulated view of his new comp seats in the taxpayer funded sports palace!

Wasn't Turner Field just built in the 1990s?

You know, the major sports league should have had the foresight to think about this decades ago. Every team should have set aside 10% a year of their profits into a new ballpark or stadium. Even Green Bay's newly renovated Lambeau Field that had a half-percent sales tax, barely passed.

It's gonna be a great facility..but it pales next to the new Falcons stadium.

BTW..what are they going to do with the Georgia Dome?

The last I saw the Atlanta Braves play it was in Fulton County stadium and Hank Aaron hit #700. I’m getting old.

huge mistake not having a retractable roof on it so they can play on rain days and when it’s still colder.

Nice,
And to make it even better them Braves will be leaving Fulton county and Atlanta behind.
Guess Atlanta won’t have that cash cow to take advantage of any more.
