Related: lots of Brewers fans probably won a few bucks in the lottery tonight. Three of the numbers were Brewers retired numbers: 4, 19, 34.

He's selling them short...not just the best for a year, probably top 5 career all time.

Its funny you say that. I always take those numbers and some combination of Braun, Aaron Rodgers, and my birthday (2/7 or 27).

 

Last night I took the quick picks or I coulda won a million dollars! (To be fair though I'm sure I woulda picked Rodgers and not 8 or 27, still woulda been worth a crisp Benji)

I was surprised to see that at first, but not all that surprised when I actually thought about it.

 

Two HOF'ers playing together for a half-dozen years, Yount with one of the greatest SS seasons of all time in '82.

 

Granted, I'd imagine there aren't too many baseball fans who remember how good that infield was, given that we're going on 35 years from that team!

Not to take this too off topic with the lottery, but one of the reasons there may have been 3 winning tickets (other than the fact that sales were high), was that people who pick their own numbers tend to pick lower numbers (birthdays, jersey numbers, etc). These are usually lower numbers and the numbers drawn last night were on the low end.
