Sports bar near Tropicana Field sells month of beer with Brewers fans

A sports bar near Tropicana Field found out how thirsty Brewers fans are for a World Series title.

The Milwaukee Brewers are one victory away from their first World Series triumph, and fans who attended Games 3, 4, and possibly 5 in Florida are already preparing to celebrate. Ferg's, a sports bar located near Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, has stocked up on an extraordinary amount of beer due to the enthusiastic Brewers supporters.

According to the bar owner, they went through an astounding 1,000 cases of Miller and Coors Light on October 26, which is an entire month's worth of beer. This led to the bar running out of Miller Lite and having to order an emergency truckload on the following Tuesday morning. The fans' thirst for victory is undeniable, with 90% of them reportedly choosing beer as the celebratory beverage.

This level of dedication to the Brewers' chances of winning the World Series is reminiscent of past fan behavior, such as the 2010 Super Bowl party in Atlanta, where a sports bar ran out of both beer and Jack Daniel's before 8 PM. The article emphasizes the unique intensity of Wisconsin sports fandom, drawing comparisons to previous events like Packers parties in London.
