Reaction to the removal of the Miller Park signage is, well, mixed.
As the cranes rose to consign Miller Park to the ash heap of history, the internet erupted with reactions. Some folks are happy about the new American Family Insurance sign. Some less so. Native son JJ Watt even weighed in. We collected some of our favorite tweets below:

Sorry, @JJWatt, looks like the folks at Molson Coors already have some ideas for the beautiful Miller Park signage after it comes down. Here is a statement from the company: pic.twitter.com/3ZcKJSyC4g

I had a visceral reaction to this.

I went to the first game at Miller Park (exhibition game not opening day). They played the Space Odyssey theme song to show how the roof opened/closed.
I've apparently hit the "change-is-hard" phase of life that requires me to share memories. https://t.co/n1PA1LnaH3

Out with the old, in with the new! So cool to be there for this historic moment as Miller Park officially changes over to American Family Field.

And an added bonus- Brewers execs say they are hopeful there will be fans in the stands this summer! pic.twitter.com/YjnRjNdFtQ
It will always be Miller Park to some, but you have to respect @amfam for stepping up to the plate and investing in our team & the community. Sign looks pretty sweet. https://t.co/VAMpG8NtPw
