Who is on your Braves Mt Rushmore?

Then why is there a statue at Truist?
Why do the Atlanta Braves display three World Series Championship banners at Truist?
Atlanta Braves are the Milwaukee Braves are the Boston Braves and for that matter are, for all intents and purposes, the Cincinnati Red Stockings.
Who was the first retired number put up at Atlanta Stadium?
Fulton County part came later, in case you were wondering.
If you take away Aaron’s non Braves numbers, would he belong on on a Atlanta Braves Mt Rushmore?
Maybe, but it not a sure thing.
Aaron has more of a claim for a spot on a Atlanta Braves Mt Rushmore as an executive than a player.

What part of this do you not get?

Banners and statues at Truist have nothing to do with the question asked on this forum.
