It's an afternoon game (1:05pm) on a Saturday. Tickets should be pretty reasonable since it's still preseason. A chance to meet some of the ever-expanding Atlanta AT crew, catch a game, have a few beers, yell "Noooomaaaaaah!!! It's frickin' NOOMAHH!" repeatedly, etc.

What do you guys think? Give me an idea of numbers interested and we'll go from there. Wives/husbands/SOs/non-AT friends welcome of course. :)

EDIT- whoops, misread their stupid preseason calendar (Feb/Mar/April rolled into one :confused: ) Game is MARCH 29

Sorry. :eek:

Either way, February is a little bit TOO preseason for me!

I'll have to look into it, but I doubt it'll do any good for me since I'll still be in school. I still need to figure out what to do for Spring Break or even when Spring Break is.

You're just bitter 'cuz the proposals for the Utah Baseball League (where each team can have multiple players at the same position at the same time) keep getting shot down. :p

Hehe... that would be cool! ;)

The only team I dislike more than the Red Sox would be the Braves... :)

A friend and I regularly go to Braves games so we may be able to make this one as well. I have to check my schedule. This may be the same weekend that we are going to Bama for a weekend of Bama sports.

Of course, I will be there rooting against the Braves, as usual.

I went to game five of NLDS and watched the Giants beat the Braves and eliminate them from the playoffs. That. Was. Great.

We'll get you a "special" seat by yourself over on the third base line then, you traitor. :p

I paid a scalper $210 to take my dad to fenway park on his birthday to see boston play atlanta a couple years back.

Dear God....boston got their asses handed to them.

Never again.

-PAB

EDIT: never again with the braves. I thought I picked a sucky enough team, but I guess I was wrong. I'll have to pick a suckier team next time. Like the Marlins.
