Dale Murphy speaking at the Baseball banquet. I haven't


Jan 21, 2016, 3:59 PM

heard that name in years. I remember when he was the only decent player on the Braves team.

$60 is outrageous for the baseball banquet


Jan 21, 2016, 4:33 PM

That's way more than it was last season. Hard to believe an event that started with Wilhelm grilling hotdogs by the stadium has turned into something so expensive.

And for a mere $1500 you can reserve a table for 8 and 2 players of your choice. Where do the players families sit? I have enjoyed meeting the players and their families in the past. The Duggar, Triller, Slaton, and Kreiger famalies to name a few. Will not be going this year. Today, the ticket office called and wanted to know if I was buying my same ticket this year. Don't know whether to be flattered or tickets are not exactly flying off the shelves.

I think ticket sales will be fine, maybe even up a little from the last 2 years.

In all, I like Lee and am optimistic about the program, but this banquet thing really rubbed me the wrong way. $60 is almost twice the cost of the tickets for Dabo's recruiting wrapup.

Parent of a former player here. This was always a great event to kick off the season. It was great to meet the new players, parents and fans. Just a nice family event. As I recall, it was only around $15-20 per person. $60 (minimum) is a bit ridiculous. The intent of the old event really wasn't fundraising. But, that's clearly what this one is about. I'm guessing here, but I suspect this is DRad's handiwork. Hopefully, they will sell enough tickets to pay Murphy's expenses.

I think it was around $25 but I can't find it anywhere online and can't remember that far back.
