That better be one outstanding burger.
As the Atlanta Braves kick off their season Thursday night at Truist Park, fans of the 2021 World Series champions will be able to splurge on a bougie burger that costs $151.
Action Network’s Darren Rovell started the social media storm by tweeting the description of the burger and a picture.
“Burger that Braves are selling for $151: A Wagyu beef patty with cage-free pan-fried eggs, gold-leaf-wrapped foie gras, grilled cold water lobster tail, heirloom tomato, Tillamook cheddar cheese and truffle aioli on a toasted, buttered bun served with Parmesan waffle fries,” Rovell tweeted.
The burger also comes with a replica 2021 World Series ring.

Baseball fans on Twitter Thursday mocked the team’s expensive burger — and not just for the price.
“Who thought this was a good idea?”
“This looks like something my niece makes for me with her toy kitchen.”
“They seriously put Tillamook on a burger that costs $151?”
But why stop at $151? Fans can purchase the burger and a real, limited-edition 2021 World Series ring for only $25,000.
