Brewers record third-highest tickets sold in a single day with Arctic Tailgate

The calendar may still read February, but Brewers fans were thinking summer as tickets to individual games at Miller Park went on sale. Fans lined up at Miller Park for the "Arctic Tailgate" days before the windows opened, and slightly more than 95,000 tickets have been sold in the first six hours. That number represents the third-most Brewers tickets ever sold in a single day.

In addition, the Club announced that a total of four games have already sold out of individual game tickets. This marks just the second time in team history that a regular season game other than Opening Day has sold out on the first day of availability.

"Opening Day is fast approaching, and we want to thank the fans who once again have given us terrific momentum in ensuring a great environment at Miller Park all season long," said Brewers Executive Vice President - Business Operations Rick Schlesinger.

Opening Day once again was the game that people targeted early today, but availability was limited to standing room, obstructed and single tickets only.

"As people continue to purchase Season Seat plans, the available tickets for Opening Day do not come close to meeting the demand," Schlesinger said.

Fans still have the opportunity to obtain tickets to the Home Opener and all of the high demand games with the purchase of a partial or full Season Seat plan. Information on Season Seat plans is available by calling 414-902-4100.

Games that no longer have inventory remaining for single game buyers include (standing room only, single seats and obstructed view may remain):

April 5 versus the Rockies
April 10 versus the Cardinals
April 24 versus the Cubs
May 15 versus the Phillies

The top five single-day sales totals have all occurred on the first day of individual game sales (listed below):

#1 2009 - 104,000 sold
#2 2008 - 98,000 sold
#3 2010 - 95,000 sold
#4 2006 - 94,000 sold
#5 2005 - 90,000 sold

As part of last week's Arctic Tailgate activities, the first 2,000 fans at the Box Office received a free Arctic Tailgate t-shirt, a Klement's hot dog and a Pepsi.

Tickets remain on sale at the Miller Park Box Office, through brewers.com, by phone (414-902-4000) and at all tickets.com outlets.
