Anyone familiar with the Atlanta area may understand but a colleague of mine today who really doesn’t even pay attention to hockey down here north of Atlanta told me that they are building an 18000 seat arena in Cumming area. This isn’t too far from where the ECHL gladiators play and far away from the Atlanta culture in downtown that was unable to support the Thrashers. The Braves also moved away from downtown and it is working well. The Battery is a development around Truist Park and they are talking about a similar vibe around this cumming area which would be fantastic. I’d for sure buy at least a ten game package down here.
