Student Builds Miller Park out of Legos

Milwaukee, WI -- It took 4-and-a-half years to build Miller Park, in Wilwaukee...but it took one guy 7 years to build a smaller scale out of Legos!

Engineering student, Tim Kaebisch pieced together this modeling marvel.

To get it right, Tim went to the real Miller Park over and over...dissected every detail.

It's complete with real lights and a retractable roof!

Not sure where Wilwaukee is but this is pretty cool:

I like when they interview the old lady. she says " Awful lof of work hours and hours". They just left out the part where the reporter tells her it took 7 years and she responds "what a loser". :rofl:

That is pretty damn cool though i mean Kip dynamite did a hell of a job. :lol:
