 All This & Braves Tickets, Too |
33 West Park Square Atlanta, GA 30060 United States +1 770 424 6552 |
Before you enter the store, you'll notice the sign that announces Braves tickets available for most home games, an often tough item to find in this baseball town. Owners Peter and Kathleen Johnson are season ticket holders at Turner Field, and are usually willing to part with their behind home plate gems if the price is right. The shop itself provides cards, wrapping supplies and plenty of gift ideas. The Johnsons also stock such fun items as hand tuned wind chimes by J.W. Stannard and the full line of Margaret Furlong products. Review © 2009, Wcities |
