[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 516085, member: 2426"] So the Falcons and the Hawks had good attendance before the Braves run? The Atlanta Chiefs were a successful soccer team? The Atlanta Flames were successful? The success of Atlanta sports franchises was even worse before the Braves run. The Falcons were considered a joke. The Smith ownership was basically a joke of the NFL. The Chiefs had almost no attendance or fan support. The Flames made the playoffs six out of eight years, but could not get people to attend. There are absolutely no success stories in Atlanta professional sports from the 60s thru the 80s. The stigma about Atlanta sports wasn't caused by the lack of support for a dominant baseball team in the 90s. That lack of support confirmed a stigma about Atlanta's support for professional sports.
