This was the marketing team shortly before announcing this killer FREE(!) event on a Wednesday night less than two weeks away:

How big is that place?  I would think it will be a packed house.

probably reading too much into that, but I wonder if it means Miller is slated for the 26 man roster for sure, and whether Sal will be up on O.D.?

Think it’s more that Miller is a Wisconsin guy and Frelick is the best prospect of legal drinking age.

My hunch at this point is Sal will be in the OD lineup for MIL while Owen will end up in Nashville after losing out on the last position player spot to Toro.

Man they sure are pushing that Miller is a local guy and longtime Brewers fan. I don't know if I could take it if he ends up on the roster.

[BlightyBrew]

Is Mark A going to be there? Or are flights out of LA cancelled?

Seemed strange for the Brewers to advertise this so hard, like it's a replacement for the normal Fanfest kind of thing they have done in the past but hold it at a smaller bar.

For a team who has gone to great lengths to appear more family-friendly, an event like this is kind of backtracking. Hopefully they'll do something else yet this winter before Spring Training to reach out to their younger fans.

Kind of running out of time with Spring Training in less than a month. This is probably it.

Dugout 54 is a cool bar with great beer selection, But it's way too small for something like this.  I would have gone, but I didn't think I would even get in.  Did anyone attend? Curious to hear what you think

I live 8 minutes away and never considered going. Being at such a small venue it seemed like the kind of thing people line up for 6 hours ahead of time. I'm not sure why it needed to be advertised at all. Word of mouth would have had it easily filled up regardless. I'm wondering how many people were in line when they reached capacity.

Good to see that no one from the ownership group came to the event.  Might be past Mark A bed time or was Norwich playing? Perhaps he went to DodgerFest.  Don't know but heard Willy picked up the tap for the patrons.  Ownership group following its procedure...Cheap at all times and bank the profits.
