Surprise at the airport: Brewers swap jobs with airline employees

 

The Brewers traded in their bats and gloves for plane tickets and luggage!

Players and even Bernie Brewer and the Klement's Racing Sausage welcomed passengers flying Southwest at Mitchell International Airport this morning.

They worked at the ticket counter, helped board passengers, and even took photos with fans.

"It was kind of cool to see the surprised look on people's faces when we're back there and they're just checking in for their Southwest Flight out of Milwaukee on a Wednesday morning," said Brewers Catcher Stephen Vogt. 

"It's awesome seeing fans light up like that, seeing another side of them instead of just at the stadium."

Earlier in the day, Southwest employees took a trip to Miller Park! They got a behind the scenes tour, slid down Bernie's slide, played catch on the field, and ran the bases!
