Got a chance to go to the game yesterday with my buddy and his girlfriend. I ended up finding some good seats in the 200's for $20 each on stubhub instead of $49 via ticketmaster/the braves. I bought parking for 43, but based on the map posted earlier, it seems more like it was 42 we ended up in. Either way, it was stupid easy for us to get in and and out and we were back on 285 headed home easier than I've ever left a sporting event in my life. Thanks for parking tips, I really appreciate it!
I didn't get a chance to see the battery or anything really, which kinda sucked but no biggy. I wandered around the park a bit before the game, and there's always next time. We got stuck in a little traffic on the way from Birmingham and then my buddy forgot a knife in his pocket at the metal detectors and had to walk back to the car to drop it off which killed a lot of time to just screw around. The stadium is gorgeous though, I really liked it.
Things I learned and would recommend to others that haven't been: Day games: 1st base side is definitely where you want to be. We were finally out of the sun around 2:30. If you can get seats in the 100's, do it about 10 rows back and you'll be shaded no matter what from the 200's deck.
