Home of the Braves

Home of the Braves, Turner Field, in Atlanta may have a new owner when the Braves move to Cobb County after their lease ends on Dec. 31, 2016. Georgia State University has proposed buying it and the adjacent parking lots. I’m glad I had a chance to see a game there before they move. We did go after touring the World of Coke, the GA Aquarium, and the Olympic Centennial Park last weekend with my family. We caught a shuttle from Johnny Rocket’s just above ground near Underground Atlanta which for a couple of my grands was the first time riding a city bus (school buses not included). The best part was getting tickets to the game for only $1 a piece with my husband’s military ID. We did sit in the highest stands and had to go even higher to escape the rain by getting under the covered part of the stadium seating during the rain delay. We sang Take Me Out to the Ballgame during the 7^th inning stretch. I sang root, root, root for the Cubbies but it didn’t help. The only thing better would have been a win for them, but if nothing else they sure are consistent and we had a great time visiting the home of the Braves.
