Greazy and I spent last night at Miller Park, home of the Milwaukee Brewers. This was the last leg of our three days, three stadiums, four ball games tour of the mid west and it did not disappoint. This ball park has everything you could possibly want in a state of the art stadium. From an amazing kids section to great views from just about any vantage points you can't go wrong. There is also a Fridays in left field that serves as the left field seats. People reserve tables to eat while the game is being played. Needless to say it would be the most expensive (and longest) meal you would ever have at a TGI Fridays restaurant.
There also was a great variety of food including a stadium secret sauce for your brat which was outstanding. The "seats" we purchased were standing room only accept in this ball park there is no designated area for you to stand. You are free to roam around the field and loge level and there are areas for standing all along. The ushers are vigilant about you not sitting in the "investment of others" which would be a seat and with the way the Brewers are playing there are few empty seats to be had anyway. Regardless, Greazy and I found a great place to stand down the 1st base line that gave us great site lines. We also found a good place out in the center field bar area for some great pictures. In the end the Brewers won, the Italian sausage lost and Greazy and I have another great memory of a great new ball park. The one big negative for this stadium is there is absolutely no mass transit available to get to it. So if you're in town to see a game and didn't rent a car expect to pay nearly $50 for round trip cab fare as that seemed to be the going rate for us. Another bonus though is the Miller Brewing company tour is about a 20 minute walk from the ball park. Greazy and I did this and found it to be worth the time, especially if you're into seeing different breweries.
