Braves leaving town

The news has broken that the Richmond Braves are going to be leaving Richmond in the next year or two and move to Gwinnett County, GA. That is a northern suburb of Atlanta if you, like me, had no idea. Our low attendance numbers and inability to work out a new stadium deal in any reasonable timeframe has given the team the desire to make a change. It also looks like it may be difficult for another team to move here, or maybe not so hard depending on which Times Dispatch article you read. Feel free to share your favorite R-Braves memories in the comments.
