A hellscape surrounded it: the tall, once-gleaming corners of what was known once as "Turner Field." Once, people walked these spaces, and purchased beer in aluminum mock-bottles to drink while watching a game, and living life as people did in the now-distant year 1997.

Now, only feral dogs and the merciless wind inhabited its spaces, a picture of desolation itself.

We approached from the east, staying downwind to prevent possible scavengers from picking up our scent. Ahead, we found the stadium. Its profile was sorrow itself, a devastated shell of a former age.

The damage boggled the mind. How anyone had made it in this stadium for 17 years, much less five minutes?

2. I hear Cobb County is paying 45% of the cost

for the new stadium. They'll get it from the working class somehow.
