Rays or Brewers? For Bay area fan, it will be a celebration either way

Baseball enthusiast Mark Conard, living in Tampa Bay, faced a rare situation as his two supported teams, the Tampa Bay Rays and the Milwaukee Brewers, matched up in the 2026 World Series final. Conard, who moved to Tampa from Green Bay five years ago, stated that he has been a Brewers fan since childhood, but also embraced the Rays after settling in Tampa.

Describing the two teams meeting in the final as a "remote possibility," Conard stated that this situation is not a source of stress for him. Stating that he feels a 60% allegiance to the Brewers and 40% to the Rays, the fan emphasized that rather than caring about what the outcome will be, he wants to watch a competitive series.

Trying to maintain his neutrality for game day, Conard plans to balance his love for both teams by wearing a Brewers jersey and a Rays cap. Having followed the game where the Rays won the American League championship at Tropicana Field, Conard announced that he will also take his place in the stands for game three of the series.
