By the beginning of the first inning, the line for a milkshake is usually at least 20 people deep. Young kids, students and life-long Miami fans alike line up to get a taste of the sweet treats that have been a staple at Hurricanes games for 35 year now.
Mitch Freedman and his family began selling shakes at the field in 1986 and since then, the shakes have turned into a regular part of the Canes baseball experience.
