Miller Park named number 2 park in MLB

In Section: Cute Sports Posted By: Nicole

SI.com conducted a fan survey and Miller Park came in a close second to Jacobs Field in Cleveland. We were just 2 points behind.

We ranked #1 overall in Promotions and Food and #2 in Affordability.

Other areas in which stadiums were ranked:

History & Tradition
Team Quality
Atmosphere
Fan Intelligence
Hospitality
Getting to the Game (ranked third)
Neighborhood (our worst ranking at #18)

Cleveland actually didn't rank #1 in any category and had a #19 rank in hospitality, but the Brewers got double digit rankings in three categories, which proved to be the difference.

Check out all the rankings here.

Congratulations to the Brewers for making Miller Park such a great place to watch games.

Thanks for nothing. It was built in the wrong place to have a positive effect on economic development, and it is architecturally ugly. People are losing their jobs and homes, almost on a daily basis; the state budget is in a shambles, the once world class UW system is rapidly falling into mediocrity, and crime in such places as Milwaukee, Kenosha and Racine appears to be running rampant. MPS and other urban school districts are a mess and WI leads the nation in drunk drivers. What a great new slogan for our license plates" WI: we have the #2 stadium in MLB" Which is more apt: "let them eat cake" or bread and circuses for the masses during the fall of the Roman empire? I used to go to 30 games a year at County Stadium. Have never set foot in Miller Park, never will.
