Day 46 - Milwaukee, WI

Drove in to Milwaukee from the Dells (long drive) for a Milwaukee Brewers/Cincinnati Reds baseball game at Miller Park. This is a new (2000) park with a retractable dome, which was retracted today - weather was warm. It's a lovely park! The attendance was over 31,000, and the Brewers rewarded the fans with an 8 - 7 win, scoring two runs in the bottom of the ninth. It was a really good game!

I particularly liked seeing the many fans enjoying the tailgating in the parking lot. Gary and I can't remember ever seeing such a large pre-game crowd out grilling everything from brats to corn to steaks and hamburgers.

Here is a view of the stadium. This photo makes the stadium look smaller than it really is.
