For a one-time cost of $49, you are guaranteed a seat at Turner Field for 21 Braves games in the months of April and May*. Buy now and spend the spring at Turner Field!

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:

  • You can buy up to four (4) passes, so if you want to sit with family and friends, be sure to purchase all your Braves Spring Pass passes in one transaction.
  • Download the MLB.com Ballpark app and create (or login to a pre-existing) MLB.com account using the same email address you purchased your Braves Spring Pass with.
  • Tickets for all 21 games will be loaded into the app before April 10. Your barcodes cannot be transferred, so please plan to enter Turner Field with your group.
  • A few hours before first pitch, you'll receive your seat location. We'll alert you via text message, and then you will need to accept the seats within the app to indicate you're going to the game. Your seat will be different for each game, and located in the Upper Deck, Outfield... even the Infield!
  • *Braves Spring Pass does not include Opening Day on April 10.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
So after months of a huge trial 11 of the 12 were convicted in the Atlanta cheating scam. Only the special ed teacher got off.

Beverly Hall denied shit went down to her last dying breath though.

I like how they use the same room with different furnishings and lighting.

I looked at Marta's bus route of the whole city. Buses everywhere except North West. Nothing even close to Cobb county.

And I drove to Cumberland mall last Friday around 6pm. RIP in peace to brave 7pm games.

Wow my zip is in there... Do I tell the wife or not?

There's a dirty Kroger near me and I imagine some underpaid, contracted delivery guy just grabs groceries from there and drops them off.
 
My zip is also on there...so PrimeNow is free for Prime members? What happens if I order something in 5 o'clock traffic? They'd never get to my place on time.

The Atlanta Braves and the Goldbergs Group had a ceremonial grand opening today of a second Atlanta Braves All Star Grill, located at 200 Peachtree Street in downtown Atlanta.

Capitalizing on the success of the original Atlanta Braves All Star Grill located in the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, the Goldbergs Group and the Atlanta Braves pursued a second location in the heart of the city. The new location will feature a chef-inspired menu and exceptional service, with a sports-museum atmosphere.


The 8,500 square-foot restaurant pays tribute to the Atlanta Braves greats with replica lockers; features memorabilia and photos from the last 50 years in Atlanta; and is decorated with a brick façade that will make guests feel like they're at a ballgame. The restaurant is also complete with leather glove booths, an interactive pitching cage and a Braves merchandise store.

The chef-inspired menu will include favorites from Goldbergs Deli breakfast, gourmet burgers, ahi tuna tacos and a full bar which will feature Atlanta Braves themed cocktails. The restaurant will be open from 7 a.m. - midnight, Monday-Sunday.
 
I saw the new Slimy Scaly Spectacular at the Zoo yesterday. It is a brand new reptile house that has tons of new features to it. I was really impressed. All of the habitats are much bigger than the old reptile house and everything is very modern.

Wonder why they wouldn't have just held off until the new stadium and complex were built? Maybe they'll have another one, or something close to it in Cobb.

Haha watched furious 7. Weird seeing scenes that you saw filmed live. Worked in the at&t tower midtown and had a good view.

That series really does love filming in Atlanta.

Officially moving to ATL in about a month. Apartment (duplex), wife's schooling (Emory), job transfer (gov't) all seem to be secure. We'll be living in Stone Mountain. Yay!

I just want to warn you ahead of time - Stone Mountain is miserable. I used to live out that way in Grayson about 11 years ago. Had to drive through it every day for work, and ran errands/shopped there a good bit. Bleeeehhhhh

Is it so bad? I've heard decent things. What makes it so miserable? We can always move, I suppose.

I grew up there most of my life. It's a decent area. Only about 25-30 mins away from downtown Atlanta and is a decent middle class neighborhood. It's relatively boring but that's suburbia. I'd much rather live closer to the perimeter after I finish college...

I would only recommend Stn Mtn if you don't want to live ITP and deal with traffic all day Lol. It's not as nice as it used to be when I was a kid, but it's not that terrible.

Don't stay there forever!

No plans to stay forever. If it's quiet and safe as purported, I think it will do for the time being, though.
 
Two weeks so far living in Peachtree Corners.
This place is fuckin' awesome.

+Walking distance from The Forum
+Unbelievably quiet (compared to L5P/Neighbors shooting fireworks at 2am in March/etc)
+Lower sales tax
+No more Comcast
++God-tier Asian and Mexican restaurants

Only bummers so far:
-Not much open after 10-11pm
-No post offices with expanded hours nearby.
The Pharr Road station is a bit out of the way, will probably have to close that PO Box and get one at the Roswell Postal Store since it's not too far from work.
-Leasing office has same hours as work hours, packages left there will have to wait until the weekend

Yeah. I don't know about Mexican restaurants, but for Asian restaurants, Duluth is not that far away either. The Forum is slightly overpriced for its restaurants.

What ISPs are available there?

I'll be hitting up the local markets too. It's nice to be in such a diverse neighborhood.

My place does the whole DirecTV/DirecPath deal.
I've wanted to try out cord-cutting from typical cable for a long time, but Comcast was my only option for speeds over 10Mbps.
Went DirecPath only, 50/5 service, and NO BANDWIDTH CAPS OR USAGE FEES
Comcast nickel and dimed me for over $500 in the year they implemented caps.
Service has been rock solid so far. Going to stress it with some streaming tests this weekend.
