    Suntrust Park already under renovation

    Removing seats for replacement by tables.

    Part of the story from Tomahawk Take

    changes that will actually reduce the seating capacity of this still-new and still-compact stadium. But mind you – this isn’t about numbers… okay, that’s not quite true: it’s being done for the money numbers, not the attendance numbers.

    In short, six rows of seats have been taken out to make way for extra 4-person tables next to the Inifiniti Club… sections 220-231 that wrap home plate and end roughly where the dugouts begin.

    Full story here -- have to look for it

    They need to make more space to expand the weightroom so Markakis can start leading the way.

    I would also make the steps steeper for the guys who like to use them for their off-season workouts.

    I got to sit in the Budweiser box directly behind home plate at Turner Field a few years back. Budweiser stocked the refrigerator with free beer and had a chef cooking dinner for us. It was pretty cool. They were having some kind of Hank Aaron commemorative event that night in the box next door. Some of my coworkers and I ran into Hank in the hallway outside and he was both friendly and humble, and made a point of introducing us to some of his friends. I can't imagine a better ballpark experience.

    There were plenty of tables.

    If they rarely sell all the seats anyways, they might as well convert some to tables I suppose.
