I was just about 3 years old when I first visited you. And all I did was fall asleep on my dad's shoulder.

I really didn't appreciate you until about middle school -- when I watched my favorite baseball player, Chipper Jones save the seem-to-be losing game with an out of the park home run and felt the excitement from the crowd as we won the game in the 11th inning.

I'll always remember the excitement I got when "Crazy Train" came on because I knew if something was going wrong in the game -- Chipper would try to save us.

I cried just like anyone else, alongside my dad, at Chippers last game and wore his jersey with pride!

And we were there when they retired his number and put his number on the walls of Turner Field, what a special moment. Moments I will never forget.

I was there for all the opening games from 2012-2015 and even got to go to a Choptober game.

I own way too many souvenir cups that I need, but no I won't give up any of them.

Every game I went to a school a season ticket holder I wore the same outfit- because my record was like only 3 losing games and I just couldn't risk it.

I can never be thankful enough for Bobby Cox and all that he did for this team. Thank you so much to an incredible man, coach, and manager.

I had the privilege of seeing Newboys at Turner Field and getting to worship alongside thousands of people in a place where you didn't think worshipping at was possible.

I've made so many memories with so many different people.

I've grown up there.

When I got to high school my family decided we would be Season Ticket Holders- I was so stinking excited.

My dad and I sat in 406 about 20 games a year and loved every minute of it. Spending time with my dad at those games was the best time I could have ever had.

With Chipper retiring I found a new found love in Craig Kimbrel, and boy was he a hoot.

It was SO EXCITING, wishing every single game that he would close the game and strike out the other time with his WICKED FAST pitch.

And it was even more excited hearing "Welcome to the Jungle" and seeing all the screens go black during his entrance. Everybody got on their feet EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

I'll always remember all the chops, dipping dots, tool races, Waffle House, 7th inning stretches, pizza slices, Dwarf House(coconut pie), and the family Turner Field brought me.

I'll also remember getting all dolled up because makeup has always been a passion of mine but then surprising everyone around me when I scream at my team just as loud as my dad next to me.

Baseball and especially Turner Field has a way of bringing everyone around you close to you. For that game everyone around you is family. And we all help cheer on our favorite team.

I know my team hasn't been doing the best as of late but they are still MY TEAM, and that is MY HOME STADIUM.

Baseball isn't about shopping malls, parking decks, and five-star restaurants.

Baseball is about a family of fans coming together and cheering on their favorite players and teams and occasionally eating overpriced crappy food.

I am heartbroken about Turner Field and even more heartbroken that I never got to say goodbye.

I'll miss my home and my family.

But I'll miss the TED so much more.

So long old friend.
