It was cold but the sun warmed us just enough

It only got up to about 35 or 36 degrees

We were seated what has then the bleacher section at Milwaukee County Stadium.  Later in the next decade the stadium would be extended including an upper deck over our 1975 seating location.  The crowd had started to thin out because some got too cold and it was late in the game and the Brewers were winning

This opening day did not sell out because of the cold.  I love professional baseball and was at County Stadium regularly during my life in Milwaukee.  I attended over 40 games several years during the 1970's.  I was friends with two policemen who patrolled my Woolworth's store neighborhood.  They worked the games and would sometimes let me into the bleachers for free
