LSU baseball fans tailgate like crazy (or at least they did at the old ballpark), but I never heard of any significant MLB tailgating in the South.

Saw plenty of it at Turner Field last weekend.

Yeah, it all depends on the parking situation. Turner Field's got the old Fulton County Stadium lot right next to it, so there's tons of room to tailgate. Many people do.

I hope to check it out one day (or night). Thanks.

Rumple, go where you haven't been before. Never miss an opportunity to add a stadium notch to your belt.

And yes, TBIA is surrounded by concrete, but there is plenty to do in the vicinity.

Where can we go before the game to beat the heat before we start tailgating?

There's big places like Papadeaux, Joe's Crab Shack and Hooters within a few blocks that will be doing pregame stuff. Plus a dozen other places I can't think of at the moment.

There is also a big, sprawling bar called Sherlock's Baker Street Pub that's great before and after, with cheap drink specials. It's maybe a quarter-mile from the ballpark, but I think they even run a shuttle.

That Sherlock's holds the distinction of overserving more than any other bar in the state. Every year it seems like there's a move made to revoke their alcohol license because of the sheer number of DUI/DWIs that can be traced back to someone being overserved at Sherlock's.

That would explain why there are about five cop cars sitting in the parking lot at closing time every night.
