Brenden at Brewer's Game in Milwaukee!

Brenden went to Milwaukee with his college roommate Joel recently. Joel and his girlfriend Chelsea took Brenden to a Brewer's game at Miller Park on Thursday, May 27. Brenden was quite impressed and said he actually liked it better than Fenway. He has been in the Midwest too long.
