they might could get the Braves to come play a series or two a year in Rickwood.
Idk man, I don't see any level of facelift being enough to convince the Braves to sacrifice any home games at their state of the art 41k stadium in order to play in a 115 yr old stadium that only seats 10k in another state. Let alone for an entire series, or a couple of series a year.
And think about how high the demand for tickets would be if the Braves decided to play a game in Birmingham, they would sell out a 50k stadium here, it would be a waste to have them play in front of only 10k

The seating issue I don’t think would be a problem. They could bring in temporary seating. If they can turn a corn field that is a movie set into a working ballpark I’m sure something could be done with Rickwood.

I actually saw the Braves and Hank Aaron, Rico Carty, and Felipe Alou play a game at Rickwood. Yeah, I'm that old.
