Damn... I really hope 2021 didn't just tell 2020 to hold it's beer. We'll miss you Mr. Aaron
If you are ever at Turner Field in Atlanta, the parking lot is where the old stadium was. If it's empty, you can see the old field outlined, with the section of the wall still in place where his last home run went over.

Last homer as a Brave. His last home run was with the Brewers, at County Stadium.
I very much remember watching 714 and 715.
714 was an afternoon game vs Cincinnati at Riverfront. I have no idea why I was home (kindergarten?), but the Reds were my team, so I was watching the game. In our living room watching the old Zenith.
715 was an evening game v the Dodgers, and I also very much remember sitting at the dining table when he came up to bat.
Things I will never forget. I was not even 7 years old.

Oh, thanks for the clarifications. I was wondering why I was getting different images when I was searching.
I am no sports fan at all, but I have tremendous respect for Mr. Aaron.
86 isn't young, but it's still a loss for American society.
Hammerin Hank was a class act. He had to deal with a lot of crap his whole life and faced it with dignity. RIP Henry.
The true homerun king.
