Braves ditching The Ted for suburbs

Haven't squeezed enough out of Cobb County. Want another $14M. "That $14M you spent already, that was for other stuff. So we paid for all this stuff, here's the receipt, pay up."

Braves, Cobb spar over transportation projects at SunTrust Park

 

Eight minutes is no traffic jam. You can barely escape the parking lot of a Kroger in eight minutes on a weekday evening in the vicinity of I-285.

 

Is that the Murder Kroger?

 

Don't be absurd. Murder Kroger was ITP.

 

I don't know Atlanta area. I'm just trying to keep my Krogers straight.

 

Murder Kroger is now OTP, as in, Outside The Plane of Existence. RIP.

Unfortunately, that hasn't stopped the traffic around where it once stood from being the bane of my short commute.

EDIT: Oh, and fuck this stadium.

 

For those of us scoring at home: Murder Kroger?

Seventeen days until Cobbageddon!

Will SunTrust Park create a traffic nightmare near Cobb cloverleaf?

The biggest surprise to me

I sense big trouble. And I'm not alone.

 

Everything I've read here would keep me from going to a game if the home team was coming off three straight World Series wins. The team here is the Braves.

 

We cover an FCS school that has one road leading in and out of campus, and for football games they charge for on-campus parking at the gate. You can imagine how much fun that is when 30,000 or 40,000 people descend on campus for a big game. I once waited two hours in traffic to cover the last two miles to campus.
Looks like whatever genius implemented that school's game day parking plan has been hired by the Braves.
