After traffic in Chicago’s northern suburbs and around Milwaukee’s airport, I finally parked at Miller Park at 6:45 pm – 20 minutes before the first pitch and 2 hours after I left the office. As I approached the Miller Park box office, no ticket scalpers were offering tickets for sale, but mainly asking if anyone had extras. The lines for Will Call were long, but I saw a tickets.com tickets kiosk. I slid my credit card into the machine and out came my ticket. I had not used a ticket …

Normally, I never buy tickets ahead of time, especially for a Milwaukee Brewers game. However, tonight I am attending the Cubs at Brewers game at Miller Park. This morning, I logged onto www.brewers.com to see what tickets were available. Some $60 singles and Standing Room Only (SRO) for $22 was all that was available. When I went to see how many SRO seats were available, my seat number was in the 1300’s. I thought, maybe I can buy a cheaper ticket from a scalper at …

Last night, we arrived at Miller Park about 90 minutes before the Milwaukee Brewers hosted the Atlanta Braves. Since we were early, there were not as many scalpers as usual.

Having not been to Miller Park for 4 seasons, I drove up to Milwaukee last night. I entered the ballpark a little over an hour after I left work, so the decision to drive to Miller Park rather than Wrigley Field was the correct one – the Cubs game was in the 5th inning at the time.
As I entered the parking lot, I noticed that parking increased $2 (since 2004) to $8. Not too bad (especially when compared to Chicago). I knew the cheapest seat in the stadium was $8 …

Under normal circumstances, I would never attend a Milwaukee Brewers game over a Chicago Cubs game based on my proximity to Wrigley Field. Miller Park is about 90 miles from my house whereas Wrigley field is about 90 steps. However, with the Cubs game starting at 6:05 pm today in order to accommodate ESPN, the Brewers game starting at 7:05 pm and my having to work until 6 pm about 30 miles north of Wrigley Field and 60 miles from Miller Park, I have chosen to drive to …
