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

[Thunder Muscle]

What are concession prices like? I'm going to the game on Wednesday against the Blazers (sorry in advance for the loss because they are terrible when I go) and if concession prices are reasonable I'll probably just get something there.

I paid $8 for a cheeseburger, $4 for fries, and $7 for a fountain soda (20 oz give or take) at the Sobelman's stand. I think pizza was $7 a slice.

Miller Lite was $11 for 24 oz draft and I paid $24 for 2 16 oz craft beers from the craft beer stand as well.

Beer garden was $5 for Miller Lite pint and think I paid $6 for the Terrapin IPA pint can.

What are everyone's favorite food options so far in the building? I did a Sobelman's classic cheese last night and it was a little disappointing, extremely dry. I'm usually pretty easy to please but I had to pour on the ketchup. Soda $7 but was a very generous glass. Beer choices were good. Prices are what they are I guess.

Iron Grate BBQ sandwich is by far my favorite so far

Gold Rush chicken tenders after that. Also excited to see they have added bone in fried chicken at the arena to the stand. I will definitely try that next time.

Chik Fila is a pretty good value for sandwich/fries

Bought a $2 Klements brat before Raptors game. They "ran out" of buns and it was served on texas toast. Good brat, but weird, they stopped serving them on buns.

The grilled cheese and mac & cheese stands upstairs look intriguing, but don't really to want to pay $10 for either of those items

Never been a Soblemens fan, don't plan on trying them there

Just a heads up, the grilled cheese from that stanned are like literally dripping in butter. I'm sure that's a nice thing for some people, but I couldn't eat more than half a sandwich. The fish bowl is actually pretty damn good if you are a fun of spicy salmon/tuna rolls but if there's a line it can take a while.

Has anyone done one of the silent discos yet? They have been charging $15 for it, but tonight it seems to be free!

I haven't done it yet, but I'm thinking about checking it out tonight since it's free. I'll let you know how weird it is!

Disco is weird enough as it is. Just imagine Disco Stu at the roller rink with his headphones on. It's just like that except people are smoother on roller skates than they in shoes.

NML Official sponsor at Fiserv Forum.

After months of speculation about whether Northwestern Mutual would become a key sponsor at the Milwaukee Bucks Fiserv Forum, the Milwaukee-based insurer signed on as a “title partner” for the club lounges premium space at the arena.

Financial terms were not disclosed for the sponsorship announced Monday. Northwestern Mutual had been a major sponsor at the Bucks previous home arena the BMO Harris Bradley Center. A company spokeswoman previously said Northwestern Mutual was holding discussions with Bucks representatives for a sponsorship at the new arena but declined to discuss details....

A Pennsylvania company that specializes in explosive demolition is seeking a city of Milwaukee permit to perform work at the shuttered BMO Harris Bradley Center.

Advantage Blasting & Demolition LLC of Saxonburg, Pa., filed an online application that describes the work as “blasting of Bradley Center.”

As of Wednesday, the company had not filed details or documents related to the permit application. City officials have yet to review the application or issue a permit.

The application states the blasting would start on Jan. 4, 2019, and end on Jan. 14, 2019, and the job will cost $110,000. The work would occur between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m, according to the application.

A spokesman for the Milwaukee Bucks, who took ownership of the BMO Harris Bradley Center in September, declined to comment. A representative of Advantage Blasting & Demolition did not return a call seeking comment.

The Bucks are paying for the Bradley Center demolition, as required in the public-funding legislation for the Bucks new arena Fiserv Forum.

Hunzinger Construction Co. of Brookfield is overseeing the demolition. Subcontractor Veit & Co., which has an office in New Berlin, is conducting the actual demolition of the building in the 1000 block of North Vel R. Phillips Avenue.

Advantage Blasting’s website states that using explosives in demolition “allows contractors to achieve the greatest effect with the least amount of effort, which in the long run, reduces valuable time, expense, and exposure to the labor force.” The company can perform building implosions, precise positioning of explosives in concrete and stone structures, and explosive severing of steel members, according to its website.

Interesting, it must be a small explosion(s), it's way to close to the FF to completely implode the BC.

When did they add the huge fiserv.forum letters to the top of all 4 sides of the scoreboard?

[HKPackFan]

So baseball is over, the Packers are **** the bed, a lose to minny will finalize that disgust.

The bucks are going to be the only game in town, and destroying teams like the are and being a top 3 team in the NBA, the forum is going to fill up soon.

We haven't even heard how loud this place can get yet, but patience, it's not far away.

Loudest it got tonight was when Bango made that no look half court shot right as time expired.

I honestly think the city of Milwaukee has no idea how good this team really is.

They may not even realize it until we sweep Orlando or whatever #8 in the first round.

The death of the Bradley Center now becoming real if blasting starts on January 4th.

We're the ushers hyped again after the game on the way out? I've been to two games so far and they have been high fiving people on the way out and yelling go bucks each time. People were loving it. Pretty fun.
