Miller Park opens this year…everyone wants to get to a game, right?
A weekend game would be good…
Mid-summer so we get lots of sun, maybe hit a festival at the Summerfest grounds…
How’s July 29th sound. I know, it’s a Sunday game. Against the Padres. But…
It’s Bob Uecher Bobble-head Doll Day!! What could be cooler? Sledman and I are already getting a group of friends together to go down either Friday or Saturday and stay 'til Monday. Anyone want in?
Sorry about the error in the thread title…I’m too excited to type correctly!!
I am in Chicago, but it sounds like a fun time! I will try to make it!
Save some Sprecher and butter brats for me!
I would imagine that Mrs. Sledman will have an itinerary set for us months in advance. We’ll pass it along. MikeG, I suppose we could find a way to let a FIB in. 
Sounds like fun to me. I’ll try to make it.
Ya know, July 29th near the tail end of the EAA convention.
I bet a number of the flying Dopers might be keen on hopping down from Oshkosh for a day.
Especially for Bob Uecker.
Are you kidding? Man, I’d walk to Milwaukee for a Uecher Bobbin’ head doll.
[okay actually, this is just a bump]
July 29? I’ll mark it on my calendar!
We haven’t planned our summer vacation yet (either a camping trip or a drive out to Nebraska to see the relatives), so I don’t know yet if there will be a conflict. But like Gazoo said, I’d be crazy to pass up a Bob Uecker bobbin’ head doll!
my mom and sister live in Kenosha and have lived there for over 11 years! Does that help? 
Milwaukee-an here! I’d love to meet up with y’all for a game this summer!!
Count me in!!
Well, as long as you have relation in the state, I guess we can let it slide. 
Damn I get a dopefest in Wisconsin for my birthday? Wow!
I’d be so tempted to join in- Minneapolis is just a short jaunt away- but I’m still frustrated that the Packers beat the Vikings twice this year and cost them home-field advantage in the playoffs.
[sub]Maybe by the end of July I’ll have forgiven you folks, though.[/sub]
Hey, LNO, it’s not our fault the Vikings can’t play a gane meant for the outdoors on natural grass!
Hey, LNO…what if a fellow Minnesotan comes along to protect you from the evil that is the Cheesehead?
This sounds like fun, Gazoo…put me down for a 50% chance of arrival
LNO - By that time training camp will be in full swing and the smack talking will start anew.
KeithT - Isn’t that the first weekend for EAA?
Personally I can not think of a cooler piece of Brewer memorabilia than a Bob Eucker Bobble Head Doll!!!
I’m so pumped I cleared a spot on my desk at work already.
MMMM…Stadium Sauce…
It’s the only weekend for EAA… July 24-30, according to http://www.eaa.org.
I drove past Miller Park about two weeks ago… it was incredibly eerie seeing the empty space where County Stadium stood for half a century.
Hey, where’s Chief Wahoo…errr, I mean August West?
Good to see some interest. I’ll pass along more details as we uncover them. For seats we’re looking at the $20 section on the third base line (so that Mrs. Sledman will be able to get sun during the entire afternoon).
Paging August West…
August West to the Main Level Beer Garden…
“We’ve got your beer” to paraphrase an old Point Beer ad.
KeithT… See it pays to have people paying attention. It always used to start the last weekend in July and that was the best time to be there because all the vendors and displays were still there.
Gazoo…
I just realized that they should have Leinie’s so we won’t have headaches to worry about.
Holy bolding disaster Batman!!
