If you're looking for an easy, fun ride to Miller Park Friday to see the Brewers' 1:05 p.m. home opener against the San Francisco Giants, a group of tavern owners in Milwaukee's Silver City neighborhood runs a shuttle between their businesses and the stadium, from 10 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.

Participating businesses include Moccasin Bar, 3749 W. National Ave.; Mamie's, 3300 W. National Ave; Gene's Unicorn, 3412 W. National Ave; Silver City Sports Bar, 3530 W. National Ave.; Silver Spur, 3700 W. National Ave.; Sin Bin, 3830 W. National Ave.; and Stadium Club, 3902 W. National Ave.

The last bus leaves Miller Park at 5:30 p.m.

The Klement's Racing Sausages, meanwhile, will run a relay race from Klement's on Lincoln Avenue to Miller Park.

Continuing the opening weekend festivities is "Old Spice Guy," who helps Old Spice celebrate 70 years of scent with a live appearance at Kelly's Bleachers, 5218 W. Bluemound Rd., on Saturday at 11 a.m.

The first person to find "Old Spice Guy" and ask him, ""Are you wearing Old Spice?" wins a $1,000 prize. We're not sure what happens if you approach some other guy wearing Old Spice and ask that question, but you likely don't win. So, ask anyone you think is a likely candidate!

The Brewers again face the Giants on Saturday, this time in a contest that starts at 12:05 p.m.
