Jersey question from a new fan.

by hoosierdore on Apr 12, 2009 5:39 PM EDT

Hey, y'all. As some of you know, I'm new to Talking Chop and new to the Braves in general. Still, I have watched every game thus far and am gong to my first game at Turner Field on Tuesday! Either at the game or before hand, I'd like to get a hat and a Jordan Schafer jersey. Schafer's new, I'm new. He's from Indiana, I'm from Indiana. His number is 24, I'm 24 (that's the point where I am reaching for similarities and stop). From what I see online, there are only like four players that have replica jerseys available. Would I have to get one custom made? Or does anyone know if they sell jerseys for the entire roster at the ballpark?

I was just wondering if people had recommendations for places around Atlanta I should look, whether to buy it online to save money, or what my chances are of finding one at Turner Field. Thanks for the input... GO BRAVES!!!

If my visit two years ago was an indication, they’ll have Chipper, McCann, Francoeur, and that’s basically it at the team store. Probably will have to order it online unfortunately.

You can usually get brand new stuff on EBay for cheap if money’s an issue

You’re not gonna find a Jordan Schafer jersey this early in his career at any Clubhouse store. The Braves had the T-shirts with names on the back, and the ones i saw were Chipper, McCann, Escoba, Kelly, Lowe, Kawakami, Anderson, and Glavine.

There is a place in Turner Field where you can buy a jersey and get it personalized. If you come into the Plaza, head left into the 100 odd level seats, and there is a place where you can buy a jersey and get it personalized for like $40-$60 bucks plus the price of the jersey.

Team store at Turner Field is worthless

The “Official” Atlanta Braves store is located at the CNN Center in Downtown Atlanta. They’ll have the Schafer jersey, they were already quite a few people this weekend who already had their Schafer t-shirts and jerseys sported.

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

The official Turner Field store IS garbage. You saw the look on my face when I looked at the price of a McCann jersey.

The store in Disney is awesome. They sell jerseys for less than the website price!

Where is the store in Disney?

You're playing a game. You never have to get a real job. Seriously. You're being overpaid and underworked. Who wouldn't want that?

Quick note if you're buying a Schafer jersey though...

I’m quite sure he wore #5 all the way up, but switched to #24 this year, as I guess Sammons had first dibs on #5.

So it’s altogether possible that he changes to #5 down the road.

I already have my #34 Tommy Hanson jersey that my brother got me for my birthday; now here’s to hoping EOF gets off the team so Tommy can get his number.
