The season ticket holder event was a complete disaster. It took 2 hours of waiting in line to get food. No joke. we arrived at 11:10am and didn't get through the buffet line until 1:10. Those idiots who work at the Bucks had ONE table setup for the Buffett and were just using ONE side of the tables to serve. Absolutely ridiculous. IF you arrived after 11:10 there was a good chance you didnt even get the full selection of food because 1. they couldnt keep up somehow 2. once 1:30 hit they starting pulling food even though there was still a line of people who hadn't gone through once yet. What a joke of an event and whoever put it on should not have a job today.

i got there at 11:10 and just said f-it and skipped the food line and went in for drinks. If you eliminate the food portion of the event, it was pretty awesome. They had the whole beer garden blocked off, and at least 4 bars open (up stairs and downstairs mecca, the beer stand in the garden and coolers full of beer). You had unlimited beers on tap including Octoberfest, the house drink was Dame Juice which was a pretty strong titos and red bull drink. Beautiful day to sit on the up balcony upstairs and then had some raffles.

I'm not sure on spacing/number of people but they should've just had it at the Pano. That way you could get in early to reserve seats and then go to the party upstairs,

I questioned the "dame juice" I chugged 2 of those in 5 minutes and felt nothing. As i was drinking them I even questioned if they had alcohol in them. If they did it was very minimal booze. And a crappy ass koozie was the member gift they handed out....pathetic. Just another failed event by the Bucks

Probably depends on if you had yours from the containers or hand-made. Mine was hand made and probably 2 full shots in it. Bare min, you probably should have gotten got rot from the sugar in chugging 2 of those

I did not end up going, but slightly disappointing that the gift was a koozie and it was yet another chaotic organized item. Guess I’m glad I did not drive down. I have kind of resigned to the fact my best benefit is getting playoff tickets at face rate, especially if make a deep run. Everything else is very hit or miss if it’s worth it and/or I can even attend.

Free beer is cool though.

I have noticed that the ticket exchange they offer is pretty much same price for all games which is nice. Last few seasons if I was using ticket credits the better games were priced significantly higher than lesser desired games. So that is nice.

Question - anyone know if there are any events going on thursday before the game? want to head down their early if that's the case.

Free beer is cool but I would have rather bought a 12 pack for myself and stayed home and watched football. You didn't miss anything but a sh** show. They didn't even announce the raffle winners....there was about 12 raffle baskets and you had to choose one to drop your raffle ticket in. They said your rep would reach out if you won.

Not that I'm aware of. Forecast for Thursday is 68 and rain. It would be cool to have a DD party for the home opener but I don't recall them doing that before and I go every year. They have a merch booth and maybe some beer stands out there.

Wonder if they still offering those 3-5 year contracts, haha! Glad Giannis re-upped.

Hope you all took advantage of those lol

I'm only taking advantage of it if PFF tells me it's a good deal.

Punch Bowl Social has closed (again)

Punch Bowl was a decent place. Never ate there though. It will be interesting to see what goes in there.

[Thunder Muscle]

We went there the weekend right before the country shutdown in 2020 and it was a cool place I thought. I thought there was a decent crowd there factoring in the NBA game was cancelled and people were starting to stay home. But it seemed to be facing issues in past few years. Also curious what goes in there.

Are the Deer District businesses busy or steady on non-event days/nights? I guess besides PDS, the others ones have been open for a few years. Maybe they can make it on events alone.

Went back in 2020 and it seemed like a weird place your first couple times. Like figuring out how to sign-up for stuff or where to order a drink caused unnecessary friction. Also, I get I'm not the target market (and it forces people to drink more), but it is amazing how loud some of these places are. Like what's the point of meeting up with friends before the game if it is too loud that you can't hear them across a table.

I live out of state, so my bucks games at the new arena are sparing. I was never able to get a drink at punch bowl whenever I tried postgame. I would just go somewhere else like Good City.

I know PB was the last to reopen after covid. They didn't reopen until March 2022. Seems like they always had staffing issues. It was a unique spot.

I'm not really down in that area much on non FiServ event nights. I've heard the bars on 3rd St do pretty well year round so maybe the DD bars do too.

[StickeeFingaz]

Went to Punch Bowl once and the service was terrible, never went back.

[MartyConlonOnTheRun]

Any 414 holders. Havent seen anything come through:
"You will receive an email message the day before each game asking if you will be attending the next game. You will need to reply to that email to indicate if you are attending. If you indicate that you're attending that game, you will receive a email a few hours before the game with a link to your SRO ticket."

No LP for lower-tier members

Check your email. I was offered LP again this year. Its a nice $150 benefit. NFL only gave STH 50% off NFL+ this year, so it beat that.

Also saw the Annual Gift is going to be a Yeti (not sure size), but that is a quality item potentially. I assume it will be like a pint or wine tumbler if had to guess, maybe a can cooler I guess.
