Greetings Reader -

How 'bout those Brewers?

It's really hard to believe, especially with how very good this team has been in recent years, but the Brew Crew hasn't played in a World Series since 1982...and this is the first ever World Series to be played in American Family Field.

I'm happy for Brewers fans. They deserve it. No disrespect to any other team's fans, but in my travels for this venture, I have not seen a more dedicated bunch.

My strongest evidence for this argument was the Arctic Tailgate, an annual event that took place when Brewers tickets went on sale in February. I wrote about that here. I was truly in awe of what Brewers fans would do to get their hands on Opening Day tickets.

The Brewers haven't hosted an Arctic Tailgate since 2022, but that doesn't make the fanbase any less fanatical, let me assure you.

For one, the tailgating scene at AmFam Field is second to none in baseball. It's college football level, with tents everywhere, long lines to enter the parking lot, and even buses full of fans emerging to set up tables.

That's not all. There is also a lengthy list of restaurants, taverns, and hotels that offer fans a ride to the ballpark, far more than in any other baseball city. The ballpark even has a dedicated driveway where shuttles can drop off fans at the main entrance.

I think you get it...when it comes to baseball fanhood, Milwaukee don't play. It is going to be a rocking place for the upcoming Fall Classic.

I've included links about the tailgating and shuttles below, and I think you'll definitely find the info useful for your next Brewers game.

Thanks for reading, and I'll see you at the Yard!

Tip of The Week

In some baseball cities, like Milwaukee, St. Louis and Detroit, there are multiple establishments that will offer you a ride to the game. You can enjoy a pre- or post-game meal or drinks, park for free, and not have to fight traffic after the game.

Shuttles are great especially for saving money on parking, food and gas. Try a search for "
