Next weekend vs Mississippi Braves.

They are featuring napping stations and selfie booths throughout the stadium .

All in attendance will receive a participation ribbon.

This, predictably, is generating all kinds of active protest (confined to social media, of course).

Hilarous. Thinking about going just because of the marketing genius and balls to do this.

That's hilarious....I'm going to drive down and support it. Didn't know Nick Lowe was playing for the biscuits until yesterday so I had planned on getting down there sometime this season. Will make it down sooner than later now.

Don't they need a crying station, or is that the entire stadium?

And yes, it's a fantastic idea ... especially the participation ribbons.

Since "Braves" isn't a politically correct mascot, will they have to change it to the Rainbow Unicorns or something gender neutral for this game?

Yes, and they've been around a while. Check out some of the other minor leagues teams' names ... some are silly, and some are dowright hilarious.

Most baseball games could use a napping station. Related note, what birth year is the cutoff for being a millennial? I’ve had this debate a couple of times.

being born in '86, I think I'm lumped into the millennial group. I don't mind the jokes and what-have-you, but I'm tired of all of the "Millennials are killing ____" articles.

This Gen-Xer agrees. Sometimes "killing" happens because businesses fail to adapt.

FYI, a part of me wonders what'll happen to attendance at Biscuits games in the future by age group. I wouldn't be surprised if attendance doesn't drop because minor league teams know their audience but you never know...

No year. No age. It's an attitude, man. You either have it or you dont

ETA- we as previous generations carry both a partial responsibility for and a complicated sadness for what is and what is coming.

I am a millennial who doesn't identify with majority of what many call the "millennial viewpoint" and I think this is hilarious.

Also shout out to the baby boomers who like to poke fun at millennials when their generation was much than mine. Bold

Boomers are way worse than millenials. At least millenials have the excuse of being ruined by boomers.
