I MIGHT be able to make it. It will literally be a near game time decision.

Please hit me up with the details.

paulpressey25 wrote:I'm waiting for info from GAD on how the ticket situation will work. I'm thinking I'll be bringing my kids and they'll work on decorating their bags on Friday night. So guys, if I'm there with the kids, don't shout profanities....save that for Fitz's after the game. Keep it fan friendly.

I'd also ask everyone be very respectful on your bags and what you write. Stuff like "Kohl--suck this" won't go over well and shouldn't be worn IMO.

There are some easy messages you can put like "Dear Senator Kohl, please hire a RealGM..."....or "Senator Kohl, please stop being GM and coach of this team"

We've got a few days, I'm sure some of you have some good ideas you can post here.


Nothing should be written on any of the bags. That wouldn't fit well with some of the plans.
There will be other ways to express yourself that I will not get into in this public thread. Join the email list to find out.

Also Postgame show live from Fitzs after the game



I really need to once again ask that people have some patience on some of the details. I have literally been working on this ALL day today and I also worked on this ALL day yesterday. I will have to put an insane amount of hours in working my ACTUAL job the following week just to make up for the lost time this week. People will understand soon enough why certain questions were not answered right away, etc.

Just plan on being available to come to the game at least 45 minutes early and come out after with us if you wish. The rest of the details will be filled in soon, and many of them will be filled in via email.

Patience and trust, people.

If I can find a cheap flight from DC, I'll come by, but that doesn't look likely at this point.

Obviously there will be more before and after the game, but Garnett is worth the ticket price for me. I'll get her drunk and she'll have a good time. :clap:


Haha she'll get belligerent and be like "this team sucks, down by 30! Why did you bring me here, I want a bag, why didn't you get us bags!"

Nah. This girl loves Bucks games. No joke. She likes Mason, Bell and Mo. I've told her many times not to trust Mo, but she doesn't listen.

I haven't decided yet if I'll be streaking in order to maximize camera time, or setting myself on fire. Either way I'll be wearing my "Fire Ron Walter" bag.

If she plays D like the Bucks I'm sure you'll have a great night.

Well I spammed 10 Bucks groups on facebook about the event I created. Hopefully this will start to generate a buzz.

I have been promoting on various Bucks and Milwakee Sports My Space sites so hopefully a combo of those will bring in even more people.
