Casino Reviews recently analyzed search data for the 153 professional sports franchises in America. This included the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and MLS. Their results showed that the Atlanta Braves are one of the most searched of all the American pro sports teams.

2023 has been quite a memorable season thus far for the four-time World Series champions. First, the Braves finished with a Major League-leading 104-win season. This led to a number one seed heading into the playoffs. First baseman Matt Olson hit the most home runs in the league, crushing 54 bombs. Ronald Acuña Jr was close behind, finishing fifth with 41 home runs. Marcell Ozuna hit 40. Wait, there's one more. Austin Riley also crushed 37 homers.

In addition, pitcher Spencer Strider had a 20-win season. Now, the Braves are in Philadelphia for game three of the NLDS. This is coming off after a thrilling game two win vs. the Phillies.

In Georgia, The Braves Top The Falcons And Hawks.

According to Casino Reviews report, the Braves beat out the Falcons, Hawks, and United as Georgia's most searched professional sports franchise. The Falcons finished second. Furthermore, the Braves were also the top searched team in Alabama and South Carolina.

National Recognition

Outside of the region, the Braves also rank highly in terms of the most searched American pro teams, combing all five of the aforementioned leagues. The Braves rank 4th on this list (out of 153). The top nod goes to the Dallas Cowboys. However, the New York Yankees are the only baseball team that ranks higher than the Braves on this overall list (the Dodgers are 18). What makes this even more impressive is the fact that the NFL was the most popular sport in 26 of the 50 states, in Casino Reviews findings.

If the 2023 post-season meets expectations, it should come as no surprise if the Atlanta Braves hold on to a most searched team title once again next year.

Georgia Destination Named A Best Tiny House Hotel

A recent report by Shermans Travel detailed the 10 best Tiny House hotels in America, and a Georgia destination made the list. "Tiny homes are one of the hottest residential design trends right now," they explain.

In addition, Realtor.com published a story last year that gave readers a glimpse of what exactly is going on with the Tiny House trend in America. But what is a Tiny House? Typically, they are 100 to 400 square feet. Many of them (though not a requirement) are situated in quieter areas. It is very common to find tiny home communities tucked within nature, in a peaceful and serene setting.

Other common attributes include creative ways to establish storage space and loft beds. They are often energy-efficient simply due to the smaller footprint requiring less utility power.

"If you’re considering the tiny-home lifestyle, take it for a test drive before you hire a builder and go all-in," Realtor explained. That is another reason why having such Tiny House hotel options is helpful. It gives those who are interested a chance to try it out.

Live A Little Chatt - Rising Fawn, Georgia

Located just 30 miles outside Chattanooga, Live A Little Chatt has three Tiny Houses on the property to stay at. "It’s evident that each was built with love and intention," Shermans Travel explains. The Old Blue Chair house accommodates up to five guests, while the Shangri-Little and Wandering Gypsy can sleep three people.

Visitors to Rising Fawn Georgia are in close proximity to Cloudland Canyon State Park. That's where you will find hiking trails and two waterfalls. However, there is also nothing wrong with staying on the hotel grounds to embrace the simple environment around you to unwind fully.

Each of the three options at this Georgia destination that was named in the list of best Tiny House hotels is uniquely different from each other. "We strive to give you the place to find your bliss and live deliberately." Live A Little Chatt says.
