The only one that came back with anything is manpowerarena.com, which said "We'll back soon!" and said they are performing maintenance on the site at the moment and that they'll be back online shortly. I guess there's already a manpower arena type thing that has nothing to do with sports, so who knows? (Hopefully, that's not a bad site).

All that being said, Jonas Prising, Manpower's CEO, wrote an article in the Huffington Post about Milwaukee being America's best kept secret, and briefly mentioned the Milwaukee Bucks new stadium in the article.

Anyways, I could be way off base about Manpower getting the naming rights, but it's fun to speculate, so I thought I'd share.

There have been no plans announced to sell anything to the fans but I'm sure some things will be made available. County Stadium seats were actually pretty popular, I don't remember what they were sold for. I'm not sure sure BC seats would be popular at all.


I would think they would sell anything they can to make a few $. I would likely buy 2 seats just because I had season tickets for about 1/3 of its shelf life.

I'm surprised they are upcharging Row 1 upper level seats when they are going to have to look through a guard rail.

Yeah, the visibility on it is supposed to be fine. Hoping that's the case because I gambled on it and got my season tickets for the new arena at dead center court in the front row up top for the same price as like far back in the corner of the lower bowl.

The "next bext thing to being there" is to check out the newarena's virtual views from your seating section & row group:

The new arena should present far less risk to anyone getting "bad" seats, unlike the present facility.

Yeah, I did use this, but unfortunately they don't have the option to look exactly from the first row, so I was still slightly worried about that rail.

There are no (pipe) rails along the perimeter of the new arena's upper seating sections - just (tempered ?) glass with thin vertical supports, less obtrusive than the "best" upper sideline sections of the BC, IMO.

Fiserv is a possibility. Not a consumer brand of course they do have corporate clients.

Fiserv doesn’t make any sense to me really as they really don’t work directly with consumers, but the timing of those sites would make sense.

Weird.

Does Oracle work directly with consumers though? Just using the most prominent name from the last few years..

Kind of, yeah. Just that their consumers are IT companies.

Does Fiserv have that kind of capital to just throw out ~$100- $200 mil for naming rights?
