lol @ Le Batard if that's the reporter's real name.

The reason no one goes to the Braves games is because the stadium is built around ghettos. It's 1-2 hr drive for most folks to catch Braves game from the north suburbs.

Lots of Stadiums are in really bad areas, in other cities. and it doesn't change attendance.

You ever been to the United Center in Chicago?

the blackhawks and bulls draw pretty well.

The Braves don't draw well?

Always a good crowd there when I go.
