One “Hail” of a Storm at Miller Park

Sometimes you just happen to be at the right place at the right time.  I was heading into the office for some last minute finishing touches before tomorrow’s Opening Day when the skies turned dark, the lightning flashed and it started hailing.  Hard.

This was a pretty heavy hail!  I have never seen anything like it.  Luckily the roof was closed during the entire storm so everything on the field is good for tomorrow.  I pulled out my iPhone and took this video, please pardon the shaky quality of the video!

As evident by the tweets and Facebook updates from people in the Milwaukee area, a lot of you had the same experiences.  Can you imagine if this happened one day earlier!?  We are all looking forward to a great day tomorrow.  It was a tough weekend in Cincinnati, but that is nothing that a little home cooking can’t cure for the team.  When you are tweeting about tomorrow’s activities at Miller Park, make sure to use the hashtag #MillerParkOpener so they can all be organized.  Enjoy Opening Day in Milwaukee tomorrow!
