Stanley Cup Surprises Milwaukee Brewers at Field
The Stanley Cup made a memorable appearance at American Family Field, surprising the Milwaukee Brewers and emphasizing family ties.
It was a particularly unique surprise for the milwaukee brewers when the Stanley Cup showed up at American Family Field. The NHL championship came to visit with Florida Panthers GM Bill Zito, a Milwaukee native and former Brewers bat boy, following the NHL team’s latest victory. The gesture served as proof of his roots and maybe gratitude towards the organization and teams that helped him make his first steps into big sports.
His newfound MLB family saw Zito emotional and recalled the life lessons Kuenn and other staff had revealed to him, adding to the already familiar atmosphere. The experience surely surprised the players and staffers, with several members of the Brewers’ “family” taking the opportunity for photos, including Milwaukee prospects Tyler Black and Sal Frelick with the famous broadcaster Bob Uecker. Not only was the GM celebrating his sports-related success, but the event also emphasized the broader family ties between the team and the sports world.
