Sliding down Bernie Brewers slide is #602 on the original bucket list. As much as I want to do it, I'm too cheap to pay for the experience to do it and the hubby would never do it. When the T-Rats built a slide at Fox Cities Stadium for fans to go down, I figured that is something I could do.
The slide at Fox Cities Stadium opened in 2023. It is in the left field corner. For $2 fans of all ages can take a turn going down the slide. For kids, you can purchase a wrist band that gives you unlimited rides on the slide and inflatables for like $10. It is cash only if you just want to go down the slide but if you buy a wrist band at the concession stands, you can pay with credit card.
I knew the hubby would just roll his eyes if I told him I wanted to go down the slide so I did it when he wasn't there. Since Heather had season tickets and got free play off tickets, she invited me to join them for the divisional play off game 1.
It was a gorgeous night for baseball. Since we got there early enough, I decided it was the perfect night to ride the slide. I paid the $2 and climbed the 40 or so stairs to reach the top of the slide.
Down I went. It was a lot faster than I expected. It was a definitely a thrill. I would totally do it again. I just have to remember to wear shoes and not flip flops as I wanted to go down without them.
For an unique ball park experience, pay the $2 and ride Fang's Slide. It is painted like a snake for the Timber Rattlers.
Now that I rode the slide at the T-Rats game, I need to find more ballpark rides to cross of the bucket list like the Ferris Wheel at Quad Cities and the carousel at Comerica Park in Detroit. Maybe Tim will make a Inside the Ballpark Attractions Passport....
