Wisconsin Timber Rattlers News Release
GRAND CHUTE, WI - The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers will hold an Open House for fans to celebrate the life of Brock Calmes. The Rattlers will open the gates of Time Warner Cable Field at Fox Cities Stadium from 5:00pm to 8:00pm on Wednesday, May 23. Fans are invited to stop at the ballpark to pay their respects to the family and remember Brock.
Calmes, a popular concessions hawker for the Timber Rattlers, died last week at the age of 28. Brock was known for his call of "Peanuts! Popcorn! Cotton Candy, Licorice Rope!" since he started working for the team in 1999.
Brock's parents will be at the stadium to meet and reminisce with fans during the Open House. Fans may send flowers to the ballpark or make a monetary donation to Mosquito Hill Nature Center in New London, Wisconsin in Brock's name.
