Any Atlanta sports fan will tell you, the city is cursed, especially in the playoffs.
With Atlanta’s embarrassing loss in their only Super Bowl appearance in 1998, the Atlanta Hawks’ lack of an NBA Finals appearances, and the Atlanta Braves only managing one championship with a monstrous pitching staff in the 90s with Glavine, Maddux, and Smoltz, it’s sometimes frustrating to be an Atlanta sports fan.
This frustration seems to have no silver lining with the Falcons once again missing the playoffs in 2016, the Hawks getting swept out of the playoffs by LeBron James and his Cavaliers for the second season in a row, and the Braves currently holding the most losses in Major League Baseball.
