Will become AmFam Park.

"The Milwaukee Brewers' home ballpark will be renamed when MillerCoors' naming rights expire following the 2020 season.

MillerCoors said in a statement Tuesday the rights to Miller Park will go to American Family Insurance beginning in 2021. MillerCoors said American Family proactively pitched the Brewers "an incredibly rich offer" for future naming rights to the ballpark.
"

Maybe they are the Mystery Team with all the new money flowing in.

Me: I don't even go to Wrigley Field, with the traffic being what it is, it's easier to drive to Miller Park!

Also me: sits perfectly still in bottlenecked West Allis parking lot for 45 minutes

Yep. I think that zoo interchange construction has been going on 4 years....backs up all the way to Miller Park. I have the pleasure of sitting in that every day.

The inaugural CFMB Cubs Brewers game was a blast.

Does anybody have a spatula?

Easier for me than Wrigley by a long shot even with the parking lot complaints. Honestly didn’t seem all that awful when I went, especially with heading west out of town.

Enter off General Mitchell Blvd to Parkway Drive and you can get out faster.

Never take the freeway to get in or out of there. Take Wisconsin to Blue Mound and enter the parking from North of 94. If you buy the more expensive parking you end up pretty close to one of the entrances (similar to being in the first few rows of Lot B at Guaranteed Rate).

Park at one of the bars and take the free shuttle. Last time I went I think I parked at Kelly's Bleachers which is also close enough to walk from. Plenty of free parking on the street, but a drink and get the free bus ride.

When I have had to park I will get off 43 and head through marquette and miller and drop into the upper lot. I am also coming from the north so that makes things quite a bit easier.

Good tips. I like Miller Park but each time I've gone I've gotten stuck getting out. I don't think it's an easier trip than Wrigley unless you live north of Waukegan and love driving.

This also a good option. Saz's has a shuttle and it's a cool bar....more low key than Kelly's.
I work right by there, so weekday games for me are super easy.

you can park in the other side of the ballpark (in the neighborhood by the veteran's hospital) and take a nice ~10-15min walk au gratis. Added bonus is that there's a solid little sports bar called the 4th base in that neighborhood so if you wanna get a beer and/or shot in you without going full alky thereyago.

4th base is pretty good.

Just change the team name to The Milwaukee Brokers* ... then it all works again and the mb logo can stay the same. Bernie Broker can still go down the slide but now with an over-sized piece of paper with the AmFam logo at the top that says "Lower Premiums!" in big letters.


(* - yes, assbags that understand the nomenclature, I realize AmFam reps are captive agents and not independent brokers ... just roll with it)
