According to the local television commercial, Braves Country is approximately 110,000 square miles (thanks MapQuest and Mrs. Starr from high school geometry).
So unless you're well within the area, it's possible that you may not be able to attend a home game this year at Turner Field, home of your Atlanta Braves.
Never fear! I've done it for you.
I try to make an annual pilgrimage to pay my respects to the team that I've been raised to love, and I did so this past weekend. For the past several seasons, few rivals have been as competitive as the Philadelphia Phillies, so it was a real treat to get to see the contest live.
My goal was to bring you the feel of the entire trip -- from lunch stops to traffic jams -- so you won't have to fret over missing a game this season.
