I don't think the Brewers ones usually tease the team vs. refer to them, for obvious reasons.

 

 

They did...when we were good. They don't make fun of the opposing team all that much anymore. They will reference the other team from time to time, though.

I thought an implicit part of the deal was that Miller would pretend to be Cub fans when advertising in Chicago.

 

I mean, of course it's a lie, but so many things are....

Ivy looks to be fairly green, too.

wow at the ivy, don't ever remember seeing green on opening day

guess that's what like 2 weeks of 70's and 80's in march will do.

I almost want them to do it in LF too

I would bet heavily that is what they do.

Is there enough demand for private parties to sell both sections for 300 people at a minimum of 50/group? I think it'd make more sense to sell them the way they sell the area behind home plate.

[Guest]

I hope they leave the basket off there

 

I feel like it would look ridiculous...but I guess that would hurt offense a bit unless they did a yellow line thing.

Doesn't need to be a group thing. I'm just guessing they put some sort of board out there and change the seats.

Are you showing us the target sign?

That looks terrible.

I think I remember reading that if a ball hit the jumbotron it would be a home run.

It would help restore the symmetry. Wait, what?

[Guest]

I feel like Mojo or Kyle where I almost want them to put advertisements everywhere in defiance to most people's resistance to it.

 

And I get that you guys aren't necessarily the people I'm talking about above and are saying that that ad in particular looks shitty...which it kinda does.

ugh, i hate the big group requirement thing, all it does is ensure we have a bunch of stupid looking empty seats in the corner all the time.

As bad as this team's going to be, I don't think that will look all that out of place by the end of the year.
