Why did the braves leave Milwaukee?
Money, mainly in the form of revenues from game attendance and radio/television rights.
Attendance was dramatically down at games. The Braves had the highest attendance in the National League in 1957 at 2,215,404. That dropped to 773,018 in 1963. As far as radio/TV rights go, other than the Houston Astros there was no other major league baseball team located in the South. So, not only was Atlanta a larger city than Milwaukee, there was little competition with other teams for fans in surrounding states.
The Braves board of directors voted, in late 1964, to move the team from Milwaukee to Atlanta. However, one of the Braves minority owners named Bud Selig (yes, that Bud Selig!) and officials of Milwaukee County went to court and won a temporary stay keeping the Braves from moving for the 1965 season. The move was made after the 1965 season.

How long does it take to get to Sister Bay Wisconsin from Milwaukee Wisconsin?
About 3 hours I live in Lake Bluff, IL and Milwaukee is one hour away and it takes us about 4 hours without traffic. There is usally no traffic unless there is construction. And if my mom is driving it takes us longer because she will rarely go the speed limit. But my dad like to speed. It will never be the fastest and then it is shorter. Maps on my iPad say Milwaukee to Sister Bay is 3 hours nd 40minutes along the shoreline and 3 hours and 46 minutes to go around Lake Winnebago. We have never gone around Lake Winnebago we either exit around Manitowoc and take county roads and see sheeps cow horses which was nicer when I was little and then go through Algoma and it is right on the lake with lots of seagulls. Of you don't exit in Manitowoc there is highway you can take my and calls it the new highway because he grew up in Door County and it was no there then. The highway is a straight shot to Sister Bay. Both ways you end up going through Sturgeon Bay downtown Egg Harbor, Fish Creek, and Ephraim. Then you after those towns you will be in Sister Bay.
