Celebs love hanging at the Ted. Melissa McCarthy and her husband Ben Falcone, who are in town at the moment working on "Michelle Darnell," were spotted in the stands when they were here on a previous trip. Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds cheered on the Braves when they were here filming "The Change-Up."

And It's not uncommon to find President and Mrs. Carter sitting near Ted Turner, the guy the place is named after, during home games.
