As excited as Brewers fans were for the start of the new season and the return of fans in the stands, many were upset by a key absence: The city's safety plan hadn't approved the stadium for tailgating. The good news for fans is that moratorium on tailgating didn't last long. Today the team announced that tailgating will return to American Family Field starting Monday, April 12.
