first braves game

belated pictures from our amazing night at the braves versus cubs game on april 6. the atlanta braves know how to do baseball. maybe it's because they are the only baseball team that several southern states have to cheer for, or maybe southerners are just awesome, but these fans are great. super friendly and fun, phenomenol cheers, plus it was a close game (and they won) so that's always fun.
 
 
 
out of traffic and on to figure out parking - we got there during the first inning and parked (close!) for free because the ticket people had already gone in to watch the game. does that happen everywhere or is that a southern thing?! loved it.
 

 
hank aaron and me.
weak imitation, i know.
 

 
i took this because i get really excited at baseball stadiums and take lots of pictures, but these "twins" happened to make their way into the forefront. countless carbon copies of them were at the game. i am so not a fan of that look. 1.) i like originality and 2.) to the girl picking her butt: wear shorts with enough fabric and ya won't have to worry about that. blech. (you may have noticed the pennsylvanian was in jeans and a sweatshirt - it was definitely not even hot out.)

The parking guards disappearing is one of my favorite things about the Braves stadium. We used to use that trick all the time growing up. Yes you miss the first few minutes, but you also get free parking. These posts are making me crazy homesick =)
