MILWAUKEE — In 2019 and again earlier this month, the Grand Chute-based Wisconsin Timber Rattlers temporarily changed their team name to the Udder Tuggers in honor of National Dairy Month.
This summer, for at least two games, the Milwaukee Milkmen are also adopting a new moniker: the Milwaukee 'Sweet Teats.'
The Sweet Teats will take to the field for a June 20 game as well as the final home game of the season.
The team will also be auctioning Sweet Teats jerseys during both games. All proceeds will to theROC Foundation. Sweet Teats memorabilia will also be available for sale, the team says.
“It’s a candy theme, so we have some great, one-of-a-kind color schemes,” Mike Zimmerman, owner of the Milwaukee Milkmen, said in a statement Thursday. “The whole team is looking forward to taking the field looking fairly fluorescent.”
There will also be a Helicopter Candy-Drop during the games.
