Brewers vs. Cubs: I-94 Rivalry at Miller Park

The Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs renew one of baseball's most intense rivalries at Miller Park. Known as the I-94 Rivalry, it has been a fierce divisional battle since 1998, with both teams often fighting for the NL Central crown.

Attendees can expect a charged atmosphere as Cubs fans travel in large numbers, often filling a significant portion of the stadium. The Brewers have countered with their 'Take Back Miller Park' campaign to reclaim home-field advantage. This rivalry has produced memorable moments, including a Game 163 in 2018 to decide the division championship.

Despite the competition, the proximity of the two cities via Interstate 94 and Amtrak's Hiawatha line makes this a convenient trip for fans from either side. In 2009, the Brewers set a record for highest attendance in MLB for a rivalry game, and Cubs fans are estimated to account for at least 16% of attendance increases for these matchups.
