FISERV FORUM THREAD - Open House/Block Party 8/26

[The Fella]

I was at another arena where they hold you in the tunnel until there is a stoppage so you can return to your seat...they never stop you when you go to get up and head to the concourse. It is not that big of a deal but actually pretty nice you don't have anyone walking in front of you while play is in action to get back to their seat. This is getting blown out of proportion on here...because that never happens here...haha

I'm not in third grade. If I have to piss, bad, well, I'm gonna go. Or, I can just whip it out and piss on the person in front of me.

So your pissing is binary? 0 or 1. Gotta go or no sensation at all. Interesting physiology.

Now all the seats need is pissguards for when Perishable517 is in the arena and can't hold it any longer

Looks like something I'd see at Cabela's.

Should honor the fans instead.
I'm thinking a bronze statue of a fan sitting on his couch with his head in his hands and a loaded revolver next to him

They'll be selling these in the pro shop

Interesting read about details of the arena. Also thought it was interesting to hear that Feigin sought input from Budenholzer on locker room setup, and even sought input from Giannis.

Also of note, Feigin wants the color on the platter of the roof to change.

All the seats aren't like this, just the first maybe 10-15 rows. Those pictures are full leather, the regular seats are a tougher nylon material, kind of similar to the BC seat covers but nicer. They also don't all have the logo.

Yes I know, I should have clarified that, however, they beat the hell out of the folding chairs you sit on when you have seats behind the bench.

New ownership has been pretty good so far at maintaining our franchise-long "psychological connection"

The facial coding expert wasn't for the players but instead for the fans.

They have the same set up at the Kohl Center as the BC with having those small chairs for the retractable seating and you were pretty much always better getting seats slightly higher up b/c they were so bad. Glad they actually have premium seats for a premium seating option.

Fiserv Forum, Milwaukee’s new world-class sports and entertainment venue, will officially open its doors to the community on Sunday, Aug. 26.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony, which begins at 12 p.m. on the plaza outside of Fiserv Forum, is scheduled to be attended by Bucks players Giannis Antetokounmpo, Eric Bledsoe, Donte DiVincenzo, Thon Maker, Khris Middleton and D.J. Wilson, Bucks alumni Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Vin Baker and Michael Redd, Bucks owners Wes Edens, Marc Lasry, Jamie Dinan and Mike Fascitelli, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, Senator Herb Kohl, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, Milwaukee Common Council President Ashanti Hamilton, Fiserv President and CEO Jeff Yabuki and Bucks President Peter Feigin. The public is invited to attend.

“We are thrilled to open our doors to the community on Sunday,” said Bucks President Peter Feigin. “Fiserv Forum will be a place of pride for the city of Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin and we invite everyone to come celebrate the opening together.”

As part of the ribbon-cutting ceremony, former Bucks owner Sen. Herb Kohl will be honored with the dedication of Herb Kohl Way. In addition, the world’s largest welcome mat, measuring 92-feet long by 24-feet wide, will be unveiled outside of Fiserv Forum to welcome the community into its new home.

Following the ribbon cutting, Fiserv Forum will hold an Open House for the community to get its first look inside the arena. Visitors will be able to go on self-guided tours of the venue to see the atrium, the arena bowl, BMO Club, Mezzanine Club, Panorama Club, main concourse, upper concourse and suite level. This will also be the first time the community can experience Fiserv Forum’s dynamic, locally-focused food and beverage program, MKEat, as concession stands throughout the arena will be operational during the event. The Bucks Pro Shop locations inside Fiserv Forum will also be open.

BMO Harris Bank card holders will have the exclusive opportunity to tour the state-of-the-art Bucks locker room. A limited number of locker room tours will be available to BMO card holders who register for their tour at the BMO Harris Bank tent located near the BMO Entrance to Fiserv Forum on Juneau Ave.

In celebration of the opening of Fiserv Forum, the Fourth Annual Bucks Summer Block Party Presented by Klement’s will be held on Sunday from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. The Block Party will take place rain or shine outside of Fiserv Forum on Juneau Ave. between Vel R. Phillips Ave. and Fifth St. There will be live, local music including Grace Weber, Wait for Morning, Shonn Hinton and Shotgun. National hip-hop icon Skyzoo, a lineup of local hip-hop performers and a separate stage featuring local DJs will also perform. The Block Party will include plenty of food options, family-friendly activities, a Monster Jam Truck, games and additional vendors to celebrate the opening of Fiserv Forum in style. The Bucks Entertainment teams, including Bango, the Milwaukee Bucks Dancers, Rim Rockers and Hoop Troop, will be in attendance.

Fiserv Forum will host its first-ever show on Tuesday, Sept. 4, when global superstar rock band The Killers perform the Grand Opening concert with Milwaukee natives Violent Femmes. Tickets can be purchased here.

Admission into the Fiserv Forum Open House and Fourth Annual Bucks Summer Block Party presented by Klement’s is free, but visitors planning to attend need to claim their free ticket at www.bucks.com/openhouse. Fans can then manage their tickets and use them for entry via the free Bucks app. Parking is available in both the Fifth Street Parking Structure and the Bradley Center Parking Structure for just $5.

Sounds like a cool event. I'm heading down Saturday to check it out including my seats. Excited to see it.

[MickeyDavis]

Yeah good to see Giannis and crew will be there.

No scheduled Packers practice on Sunday. Would be cool if #12 showed up.

Every year this takes place the same weekend as my daughters first soccer tournament of the season. Since I coach her I've never been able to attend. I really wanted to go to the event on Saturday for season ticket holders. Let us know what you think!

Royal Ivey. That would be awesome.
