One of my Cobb friends has a family/kids blog with 5000 subscribers in that geographic area- most of the comments were unsupportive solely due to the traffic nightmare. One who would live 1.5 miles from new stadium says it will likely take her longer to get in and out of the new stadium.

NewScott, that is exactly why I wish the falcons and braves the City all had had joint planning and discussions. Talk about destination area of those teams plus aquarium, world of coke, new civil rights museum, college football hall of fame and all those convention hotels right there… MISSED OPPORTUNITY.

I’d say this is far from a done deal…when the voters of Cobb Country realize that monies that would have spent on country services and infrastructure long are instead going support a team owned by a fellow worth 6 billion dollars, they will revolt. Expect some recall elections to get started today!

The ultimate “trojan horse”!

Cost me around $10 all-in to attend most of the Braves games this season, parking, food, drink, and a program. Doesn’t get much more zen than watching the Braves at the Ted on a perfect summer night with the skyline against a backdrop that fades from blue to orange to black. Perhaps the Galleria Mall and the hum of the Perimeter will enhance my “fan experience.” I may never know.
