Behind-the-scenes look at opening Miller Park's roof

It's the part of Miller Park most people never get to see...until now!

[@fredtaylor9792]

Not a mention of the 3 men who died building it?

[@MaketoMake815]

No, as that is not the topic of the video. There are several videos about the accident that mention it and a full memorial outside the building. Not every video regarding the building needs to mention it.

[@fredtaylor9792]

@3dp4dummiez16 They have a full memorial outside the building, yet that's not the reason people go to the games right? But you wouldn't say they need to have a memorial, since that's "not the topic" of the game. If we're going to admire the architecture of a building and it's engineering, I'd say that's more of a reason to honor those who lost their lives building it.

"...in October"(??) The Brew Crew doesn't play in October... that's their offseason! Lol

[@jez6078]

charlesjwin The employee who operates the roof said he's been working at Miller Park "Since 1997." Miller Park opened in 2001 LOL

[@charlesjwin]

+Jason Everard I'm certain that his work included assisting in the ballpark roof's assembly before completion.

charlesjwin your comment didn't age well...

[@jchavez4239]

Juan Chavez we need to stop commenting on this thread

[@dvferyance]

Wasn't the roof already in the open position beforehand? Sure looks like it to me at 0:40.

[@Garycrash11]

shut up bro like what is the point in commenting this js shut up it was to show the roof and how it works holy shit

[@HORSEYANIME2024]

Wish the city of Milwaukee saved and preserved the historic Milwaukee county stadium and turned it into a museum

[@thomasbolster2539]

Can that stadium work in cold weather climates for football ?

[@MaketoMake815]

No. It is a baseball stadium. A football field would not even fit in it. But yes, it can be operated in cold weather. That's half the point of a retractable roof.

[@Garycrash11]

@@MaketoMake815 yes a football field could dumbass 💀💀

[@Kujivs]

1997 it opened in 2001

[@jaredtully1198]

Kujivs you do realize he could of helped with the construction

[@MNIEofficial2009]

“1997” that’s weird.

[@jeremyfitts6802]

No mention of the 3 men who died constructing it? Should be ashamed.

[@chriskay1449]

This was about how the roof works. That is irrelevant to how the roof works.

[@unturnedantics2662]

This is about how a roof works chill your tits

[@themaestro3034]

You want them to put on a memorial to them everytime the roof is opened, too?

[@josephambrose2852]

Not impressed A death trap

[@Kujivs]

Held up for 21 years

[@MaketoMake815]

Care to expand on that? It has never once in its entire operational history been dangerous at all. No one has ever been injured or killed by it, and it has always functioned properly. And no, the construction accident doesn't count here as that was not a roof issue, it was an unrelated construction management issue.
