  "account": "Milwaukee experienced a historic World Series ticket resale record when Game 1 of the Fall Classic between the Rays and Brewers took place at American Family Field. The final low-end resale price for the opener was $2,338, shattering all previous World Series records. This price surpassed the highest resale cost of Game 4 in the 2016 World Series by a whopping 29%. As Game 2's opening day approached, the demand for tickets surged, causing the get-in price to climb to $2,490 among Milwaukee's passionate fans. These fans, in search of their first World Series title in 44 years, flocked to the parking lots of American Family Field in large numbers, some waiting over six hours before the gates opened. Fans' excitement was palpable as the Brewers secured a 3-2 victory, with Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski expressing his awe at playing in his hometown. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred praised the electric atmosphere created by the fans, stating it as one of the most exciting he had witnessed. Despite the Milwaukee ticket market's strength, Tampa's get-in pricing for the Rays' first home game in the World Series remains much lower, at $761, fueling the option for fans to purchase resale tickets in Tampa while incurring additional travel and lodging expenses.",
