August 20, 201313 yr That's on my list as well as Detroit,Colorado,Baltimore and Pittsburgh Living in Detroit I can tell you that is the best stadium I've been to. Very Nice. Pittsburgh stadium was a little over hyped. I like both Detroit and the Brewers more. What made Pitt the best overall experience though was the things to do surronding the stadium.
August 20, 201313 yr I've been to Miller Park. It is a nice park, but pretty similar to several other parks (Arizona's comes to mind). It is very nice & fan friendly, though. It is an odd location. When we went (probably 6 years ago), downtown Milwaukee was really struggling. We stayed downtown, but we weren't able to find many good bars or restaurants in the downtown setting. We went to the Miller Distribution center, which was very cool (even if you're not a light beer guy). It's a reasonable road trip from the NKY area and you can always hit up Chicago as well. We struggled at first as well to find somewhere to go. Then we found a bar doing dollar drafts and free shuttle rides to the game. From that point on, Game on.
August 20, 201313 yr Author Will be flying there, trying to decide now on a hotel that will shuttle me from the airport as well as to and from games. Has anyone stayed near Miller Park that could recommend one, there's about 4 that I can find, all pretty expensive, but worth not having to drive.
August 20, 201313 yr Any specific reason to fly as opposed to drive? Seems you'd save a good chunk of money driving.
August 20, 201313 yr Author Any specific reason to fly as opposed to drive? Seems you'd save a good chunk of money driving. Stressful, time consuming,traffic delays,wrecks,road rage,GPS leading you down a wrong road,parking. The old adage,'why drive when you could be driven' would apply to me. Some people are just natural at driving to places they've never been before without any problems or stress whatsoever. I envy them. I'm the guy that would take a wrong turn in the mountains and be snow bound till I was found or eaten,lol.
August 20, 201313 yr Had a good time there a couple years ago. Saw Reds beat Brewers in 10. Very nice stadium. Reminded me somewhat of Seattle's ballpark.
