It’s been less than a month since Opening Day and 1,000,000 fans have already made their way to Truist Park.

Just 27 days into the season, Gary Royal got quite the surprise when he crossed through the gates of Truist Park Saturday afternoon.

Royal has been a season ticket holder since 1996.

“It was a complete surprise. I really didn’t know what to do or what I was walking into. But I’ve been a braves fan a long time and this is pretty cool,” Royal told Channel 2 Action News.
