6 Places Around the City That Celebrate the Milwaukee Bucks During Playoffs
1.THE HOP
The Milwaukee Hop Street Car decked out one of their street cars completly in Bucks logos and decor. The floor of the street car is designed to look like a basketball court with wooden floors and the Bucks slogon "fear the deer" in bold lettering. The exterior of the street car also features the slogon and is painted Bucks green.This street car is win-win as a trendy way of getting around town, and supports our NBA team.
2. The Milwaukee River
Like Chicago, Milwaukee joined the green river gang. Back in April the Milwaukee Bucks, the Fiserv Forum, and the DNR gathered to 'paint the town green'. They did this with 40-50 pounds of aquatic-life friedndly green dye on two boats in the Milwaukee River between Mckinley and Juneau apartments. The Green river was the perfect way to kick off the Bucks playoff season.
3.City Hall
City Hall always makes sure to support Milwaukee, this has often been seen through the giant banners they place outside of the buiding to support whatever the cause may be. This has been done in the past with the 414 flag for 414 day to celebrate Milwaukee, a Milwaukee Brewers flag for the playoffs last year, and now a flag for the Milwaukee Bucks playoffs.
4. BMO Harris Bank
The BMO Harris Bank downtown created an 18-foot light up mural on the side of their buikding. At night each window lights up and adds to the big picture, the Bucks logo of the fierce deer or the Bucks Slogon, "fear the deer" this surely is a sight you can't miss while passing. The building will remain decorated this way throughout the entirety of the playoffs.
5. The Bronze Fonz
Oh happy day, the Bronze Fonz is a Bucks fan too. At the start of the playoffs, an eager fan posted a photo of the Bronze Fonz wearing some Milwaukee Bucks swag and word quickly spread across town drawing eyes to the creative gesture. This Bucks season surely has brought every one in Milwaukee to be a Bucks fan.
6. The Deer District
The Fiserv Forum is a great place to watch the game however, the next best place has to be the Deer District. The Deer District is an entire entertainment center located outside of the Fiserv Forum. There are restaraunts and bars for everyone to enjoy here, including; Good City Brewing, The Mecca Sports Bar and Grill, Punch Bowl Social, and Drink Wisconsinbly Pub. The District also has a walkable plaza where the Bucks Pro Shop has a pop up shop and food vendors park thier food trucks. The best part of the Deer District has to be the 24- ft wide Screen strategically placed in the middle of the Beer Garden where fans gather to watch the game. During past games the Beer Garden has been packed with Milwaukee Bucks Fans who's chanting is so loud, it heard across town.
