Opened in 1953, it was used as a baseball stadium for the Milwaukee Braves and Brewers, it was also used for football games, ice skating, religious services, concerts, and other large events. Its final season was in 2000, replaced by the adjacent Miller Park. ==Construction== Milwaukee County Stadium was originally built as a home for the Milwaukee Brewers of the minor league American Association, replacing the outdated and deteriorating Borchert Field. Several locations around the city, including the Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis were considered before the city settled on the defunct site of the Story Quarry, on the west side of Milwaukee near the Story Hill neighborhood. County Stadium was the first ballpark in the United States financed with public funds.〔Mishler, T. ''Baseball in Beertown''. Prairie Oak Press, 2005.〕 Construction began in October 1950 and, hampered by steel shortages during the Korean War, was completed in 1953. The city of Milwaukee also hoped to use the new facility to attract a Major League Baseball franchise (the city had been considered a potential relocation target for years), and in this respect their efforts were immediately successful. In fact, the minor league Brewers would never get a chance to play at the new stadium. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Milwaukee County Stadium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
