The Braves moved to cobb county because they were able to build out the village around the park "battery" and they control the whole area and gain rent from each business (another revenue stream) The city of Atlanta held control of all the land surrounding Turner field and could never come to an agreement with the Braves on how and when that surrounding vacant land would become avalible for use. To bad a stadium that was only 20 plus years old was vacated.
Also they moved outside of the city limits of Atlanta ; meaning less taxes to pay. And plus downtown Atlanta is sketchy. Best move for them to move out of downtown .
@@747heavyboeing3 yet they didn't and Truist is still great. Also this is georgia, where the weather is bi polar 🤷♂️ Outside baseball trumps inside baseball all day every day
Parking at Turner Field was horrendous. Smack dab in the middle of Downtown Atlanta. Driving in and out after the game there was always a traffic jam. At least 1-2 hours to get out of Atlanta. Truist Park being located on the outskirts makes it much easier
What do you think the coolest part of Truist Park is? Let me know in the comments!
Mediocre and not as practicable as a retractable roof stadium. Say goodbye to rainouts.
The postseason atmosphere at the park is ELITE!!
Agreed! Nothing compares to how Braves Country packed the Battery!
Unless it rains.
They should have built new stadium with a retractable roof.
pretty cool. I'm going for my first time in July. haven't seen a game since they were at turner field. thanks for the information 👍
It sure is a great stadium!
Same! I’m going in June for the Dodgers series, pretty excited 🤙🏼
Yas! Thanks for doing this video!
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it.
Great video!
Loved the video keep up the good work

Too bad they didn't get a new stadium with a retractable roof.
They went for a less expensive option. Rainouts could have been a thing of the past.

@@dawgsfan1196 You do realize I said retractable roof??
Nice job !
Thank you for this video, I'm from south Florida and will be attending my first game May 14th.
Have a blast. Definitely one of the best ballparks!
Turner field was much easier to get to from where I live ….but whatever…this does look nice.

At least turner field was actually in Atlanta
