Bristol, Tenn. – A record crowd will attend next weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway for the ‘Speedway Classic’ inaugural that will see the Atlanta braves face the Cincinnati reds within the place known as the ‘Colosseum’, thanks to the baseball and fox of the Major League.
After organizing an event outside the norm, Speedway officials are ready to break another first for the historical place, since baseball fans will descend on eastern Tennessee for this long anticipated game that is taking place inside a racing track.

On Friday, Bristol officials gave Outkick a tour of what would arrive next Saturday. While the day will begin with fans who flood an outdoor party that includes a concert by Tim McGraw, Jake Owens and Pitbull, the real show begins when both teams go to the field for a confrontation that will take place in the infield of the Gigantic Speedway.

As you will see if attending, entering this gigantic place for a baseball game will surely leave you speechless if Friday’s advance was an indication.
After having spent the last years planning this major league baseball event that will be transmitted in Fox, Speedway officials have allowed the construction team to do what they do best, which is made something beyond the imaginable.
Although I covered the ‘battle in Bristol’ years ago, that he saw Tennessee and Virginia Tech face in a football field inside the cathedral, I have to admit that this baseball event seems that athletics officials have intensified it when it comes to expanding their mentality in great events.
Fortunately for fans who attend, there really is no bad seat in the house, thanks to the construction teams that have been working 24 hours to make sure the grass is ready for the big leagues.

From the inner batting cages, the outdoor bullpen and the crazy configuration, this really becomes one of the most imaginative events in the recent events of events.
While the football game was entertaining, it is obvious that the president of the track, Jerry Caldwell, thought a lot about the host of this event, which began when the MLB noticed that the track was organizing a university football game.

Now, with the grass down, and the temporary stands that are being configured, everything is beginning to meet for the exciting event. While track officials did not launch the amount of tickets sold, they told Outkick that this baseball event would be record when it comes to assistance.
A unique event at Bristol Motor Speedway for MLB fans
In addition to the action that will take place in the countryside, next Saturday it will be filled with many events for families and fans, which includes a back gate party outside the track, before people begin to climb the huge stadium.
The concerts will begin before the game at 6 pm on the stage of the painting, since both teams are heated in the beautiful field.
For fans who sit in the garden, do not worry, there will be the opportunity to catch many homers, since there will be no configuration of the fence in the garden.
It is easy to see that all parties have spent a lot of money by joining this event. While we could not see how the Club house is seen for both teams, they seem to be quite massive, along with the interior launch and batting areas for the players.
If you are looking from home, don’t worry. Fox’s transmission will have many interesting events for the television audience, although Bristol officials have maintained those silent for now.
Be sure to follow the Outkick and I platforms for the coverage of the event next weekend, along with Fox.
