Do not merge they are two different stadium. The Ted is a baseball park and Olympic Stadium was a Track and Field stadium.Gateman1997 00:26, 14 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't disagree with keeping them separate, but I take issue with the idea that they are different stadiums. They are the same stadium, with about half of it reconfigured to refit it for baseball... like the 1976 Olympic Stadium was in Montreal. Wahkeenah 00:42, 14 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Turner Field logo

Can some one please get a replacement to the logo at the top of the page? The quality of the current image is...well, lacking. toll_booth 21:01, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Georgia State football stadium

With Turner Field's sale to Georgia State University and subsequent reconfiguration from baseball to football, a new article may/will be required if Turner Field and Centennial Olympic Stadium are considered separate entities. Gsu eagle 31049 (talk) 17:51, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. A section on the new stadium could be started here, and split off to a new article once enough concrete information on the new stadium is available to make a separate article. - BilCat (talk) 20:19, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We probably shouldn't add any info on the new stadium to the infobox. Also, I just removed an IP's addition to the infobox of GSU football being played in the stadium in 2017 as unsourced. I doubt the stadium can be converted that quickly, as it wasn't built for quicck conversion to a football stadium. {{Ping|[[User:Gsu eagle 31049}}, have you seen any reliable sources on this? Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 22:27, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There's a source from the official Georgia State website stating that the Panthers could play in the stadium in 2017, barring unforeseen circumstances and an article from the Atlanta Journal Constitution suggesting the same. Gsu eagle 31049 (talk) 23:34, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Past-tense?

Why is this past-tense? The stadium is still there; it's just closed to the public. I drive by it every month — Supuhstar * — 15:05, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@BilCat: Please could you comment. Fish+Karate 11:15, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As was explained in edit summaries, it's been reconfigured as Georgia State Stadium, so Turner Field, the baseball stadium, should be referred to in the past tense. We did the same thing for Centennial Olympic Stadium when the stadium was still Turner Field, and still do now. - BilCat (talk) 21:39, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
