Maybe if I was a Red or Braves fan I’d care about this. Or maybe it would annoy me. As it is, I really just don’t care about this. But if it gets more people into the sport, go for it.
Cool but how far away are these people gonna be from the field? Is that even gonna be enjoyable?
So I just looked this place up on a map and it seems like it is in the middle of nowhere.
Like yea its technically between Atlanta and Cincinnati but its 6 hrs away from both.
Me looking at reddit opinion on this:
Am I the only Baseball and NASCAR fan alive?!

I’m kinda psyched for it
Be cooler if there was a race and a ballgame at the same time
I mean yeah it’s nearly twice the capacity of any other place they’ve ever played an MLB game, right?
I think this is really cool and they should do it in more cities that are far(ish) away from baseball cities
BREAKING NEWS: 85,000 People CURSED to Watch 2025 Braves Baseball
Did they ever say why they stopped doing the Field of Dreams game? I miss that one.
I was going to go, but i have to work. Braves fan who has never been to Bristol. How ironic thus was gonna be my first trip.
Please just be competitive lol. The field actually looks pretty awesome.
115,300 fans filled LA Coliseum to see the Red Sox and Dodgers in an exhibition that marked the 50th anniversary of the Dodgers’ move from Brooklyn.
Please tell me Elly and Acuña will run against each other on the race track.
i get the novelty of it, but i think i would enjoy the baseball experience itself. if you’re in the grandstands, you’re so far away. you would feel detached from the game
