4Shaw Verified Member Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 First post- I've been out of the forum game for a long time. I grew up in Winnipeg and have been a Jays fan forever. I do a lot of traveling for work and I consider having to be 500 miles from Turner Field on Wednesday to be "in the area", haha. I've seen the Jays in New York, Tampa, and Minnesota, and we always travel well, but I've been blown away by the away groups I've seen on TV recently, so I figured I'd preemptively introduce myself and see if there's anyone on the boards that's going to be traveling to Atlanta. I grabbed a (ridiculously cheap) ticket to Tuesday's game and wouldn't mind taking over Turner Field like we did to Fenway and Yankee Stadium. Go Jays! -Aaron
HERPDERP Old-Timey Member Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 I think it's too dangerous to travel to Atlanta...
Cookie Verified Member Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Not I, but I know a group of at least 4 that are going to be at all 3 games.
4Shaw Verified Member Posted September 13, 2015 Author Posted September 13, 2015 I think it's too dangerous to travel to Atlanta... I want to see all 30, and if I didn't get scared off by the eastern European transgendered "woman" throwing up next to me on the BART on the way to Oakland Coliseum, I think I'll give ghetto Atlanta a couple hours of my time, haha.

I want to see all 30 too. Still 29 to go... Welcome to the board.

I'm at 19 right now, Turner Field will be 20. Would wearing a Jays hat and a Winnipeg Jets jersey (Former Atlanta Thrashers) be too much trolling? Just looking for a conversation starter, not a stabbing, haha.

People in Atlanta don't care about hockey so I think youll be fine

I think most Braves fans would be surprised to learn that they once had an NHL team. O/U on number of times a random group of retards starts chanting "USA USA USA" in your direction? I think 4 is a fair number.
Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 I think I'll stay home and watch the game in HD
GeorgiaPeach Verified Member Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 I think it's too dangerous to travel to Atlanta... Um, okay

Unless he started the conversation and pushed it.
GeorgiaPeach Verified Member Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 I think it's too dangerous to travel to Atlanta... Around the parks nothing's gonna happen. If you're getting away from the parks, Detroit is by far the worst, Oakland is just really, really dark. I parked too far from Turner and ended up losing my landmark, because the skyline was lost from late afternoon to night. Took me an hour walking through downtown Atlanta to find a cross street and found the lot. It was more of being uncomfortable in a dark downtown at night, by myself.
