Im a life long Braves fan. Even when they S U C K E D in the 80's. However, I am not a fan of this new stadium for two reasons.

1. The preivous stadium was perfectly good. Only built in 1996. The Ted was a great venue and ATL Braves belong in ATL.


2. This new stadium is in a perfectly shitty spot. The worst traffic in Atlanta happens at I-285 and I-75, Now, 82 times a year, we get douche bag braves traffic to completely frick up the traffic for all innocent commuters and for any unfortunate folks trying to get thru ATL on the way to Florida etc.

Life long Braves fan here too. The Ted was a decent, oversized stadium with a good long range view but in a terrible location. There weren't bars and restaurants and even tailgating sucked because of the shitty neighborhood. It should've been built in a better area to begin with. Of course, now that we've moved, that area will probably start to gentrify.

I'm confused as to why they chose the location they did but its probably because Cobb gave them a better deal than other counties and they felt they could create a new destination area with the performing arts center and galleria there. Anyways, I'm looking forward to checking the place out and actually having a beer and a good meal before the game.

The new stadium looks almost exactly like The Ted from the inside. They could have at least done something unique with it, but nope.
