I'm thinking squad 6 should all buy tickets out of our own pockets for a bucks pacers game in Indy and show em how it's done.

This needs to be done. I'd be willing to help coordinate.

Well imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Good luck to Hibbert.

Now if the Laker or Heat do this, maybe I'll be a little upset.

I'm not. Looked like I was moving there for a few weeks. Glad I'm not.

Hopefully I can still get out to the Mil for a game or two.

If the Heat do it, it will be an hour long show on Espn to decide who they'll bring in from somewhere else to Miami to sit in the seats.

What happened to doing the Chicago game? Although Pittsburgh to Indiana is only 5 hrs 4 min. I could probably swing that.

I wouldn't mind if the Heat or Lakers do it, as long as ESPN/TNT/ABC don't talk about how genius and novel it is without mentioning the Bucks.

LA certainly needs to do it if any team. While they still sell out, they want to have solid fans in there and not the losers who show up in the second qtr.

Bogut has gone on record to say that the inspiration for Squad 6 came from the Red Rowdies. Not sure if its still around though.

The problem with Chicago is that the tickets are ridiculously expensive compared to if we go to Indiana, Detroit, Minneapolis the other semi close towns. I will say that I have been looking into some options for this upcoming season but any plans that made probably won't be made public because if we pull it off we would like to somewhat surprise the players and there are people who read these forums that get information back to the team/players :P

I'm not familiar with Indiana at all. Is their arena downtown and are there any schools around the area? The only school I can think of that might be close is Butler, but I don't know. It seems like you'd need to have several universities within the area to pull something like that off.

I'm not a member of S6 but if a bunch of Bucks fans road trip down to a different arena, I'd deff go and bring a few ppl with me.

The problem with the Minnesota game is that it is the night before the home opener so after looking into things there probably isn't enough time to plan a trip to that game. The problem with Chicago is the ticket prices are borderline absurd and I'm sure with their team seemingly being improved they will be hard to get for a reasonable price.

Indiana and Detroit are the best options for a road trip and honestly this Area 55 thing really makes me want to go to Indiana personally :P

We will try to get word out but it won't be on the forums here, I guess just make sure you are friends with GAD on Facebook cause he will be in the loop, I'll probably get on Facebook soon myself but not there yet.

Indiana is a pretty easy five-hour drive from Milwaukee. Most of the major construction projects that have snarled traffic are done so the roads are good.

Conseco is downtown and easy to get to. Plenty of places to park, etc.

Plus you have the bonus of Epi and Bigzy attending with you.
