On the west side, MKE Brewing is not too far and Central Waters also opened up a taproom nearby MKE too. I haven't been to the CW MKE one yet, but I'm a big fan of their beer and pick up stuff whenever I'm rolling through Amherst.

Is the Jockey Club more like the lounge in the BC where it is just a fancier bar that you still have to pay for? Or is it free food and drinks?

Pretty sure it is NOT free food and drinks. I think its a fancier area but nothing is included. I had passes in 2020 but game was scratched due to covid. I was hopeful it was gonna be like the Potawatomi Club at the BC, all inclusive, but heard Jockey was not.

Side note, my rep told me March 4th is deadline to decide on next year. I didn't see that anywhere. I kinda wanted to see out the playoffs but at the moment I think I'm gonna drop out. The value just hasn't been there. And not thrilled that its February and no date on my like 1200 point legend meet & greet. They're gonna drop it 3 days before the game when I already have prior commitments probably...

Did anybody here have baseline upper level playoff strips last year through their season tickets? If so, what was the pricing? I'm sure Bucks are gonna jack it up but curious what the baseline will be.

Terms say you have 30 days from when they notify you of the automatic billing. Email calls this automatic billing a 'benefit'. I agree on the value. You can buy tickets secondary cheaper to pretty much every game this year (maybe 5 exceptions of Warriors, Lakers, and weekend games against a really good opponent). Can't imagine the demand would be higher next year.

Not a horrible deal but still probably better after market depending where the seats are and if they charge fees.

Philly game looks to be another steal. Lower bowl for $35 (before fees). National TV game so doubt Embiid / Giannis sit unless actually injured.

I have 2 lower level (101/row 17) for 76ers and I'll go $50/ticket at this point. I may just go if can't get $50.

I'm shocked I have lower level Heat and 76ers tickets selling at prices I paid upper level for, smh.

Also have 3/2 Heat tickets for $125/pair, Sec 113/Row 24 if of interest.

Wait until after the deadline to move those

I bought a $20 ticket yesterday after seeing the prices thinking the exact same thing

Next Thursday Bucks/Sixers could look very different.

Would expect a jump in demand if moves are made the next two days

Know this is kind of off topic but ties into Bucks renewal for me. Does anyone here have any experience with Brewers flex plan? Good or bad? I'm actually leaning towards dropping Bucks for that flex pack which are better seats, more flexibility (some games are blacked out), and playoff pre-sale priority for like 1/4 the price of 1 year of Bucks. Just curious.

Wish I knew Bucks playoff pricing, would be nice to see cost/benefit there. The one good thing is I feel the East will at least provide some potential interesting matchups with Heat, 76ers, Nets, Bulls in the mix.

Are you talking about a 20 game fans choice package?

Its way too early for them to decide that. It's not like they already have 2022-23 pricing done and collecting money

Correct. Its essentially 20 vouchers and you pick a seating area (e.g. Field Outfield, Loge IF, Loge OF...) vs. same seat. I like that you can use up to 8 vouchers per game; so if have a group, have ability to all sit together. Also get playoff ticket opportunities, not sure if seat location is same area or if get bumped to Terrace.

The only negative i see is there are 16 games excluded, mostly Sundays in June-August, some giveaway nights, and marquee opponents after May.

But I'd like to decide on Bucks first before maybe changing over. But a lesser commitment in flex plan with playoff opportunities is appealing to me. If Bucks playoffs have a strong market I'll come out ahead but its all been a grind this year which feels like an unnecessary burden.

Plus I haven't gotten dick in benefits. They have yet to give me a date for the meet an alumni night and I haven't used Pro Shop discount either as it has ton of exclusions.

Ahh. Had friends who did the flex plan.

You are essentially last in line for purchasing playoff tickets before the general public. Everyone who gets a fixed plan goes before you, even those who pick 10 game packs.

Thats kind of what I figured. I had the 10 pack in like 2007 and 2008 for Loge Outfield, and when made playoffs in 2008 I was pretty steep in the Terrace Reserved. Assume be same thing unless season holders have dipped since COVID I guess.

Thanks for the information!

Broke down my #s and this year was essentially a wash. I took my paid amount subtracted what I sold and then bumped that # up against the face value of what I used; it was essentially even. With preseason probably in the red a bit. Since I've yet to use a benefit, besides finals ticket stub, its all about playoffs for me. If I'm able to go to games under secondary market prices, it was worth it. If I can't and games I sell are taking a hit, it was a bad investment. I just don't know what to do about next year. Let it ride 1 more year or get out.

People are dumb sometimes.

The demand actually went up, even though Harden wasn't playing.

It's the same deal with cards. I can flip some of my lesser cards the moment someone is traded. Made 5x's the worth on one of my Ben Simmons cards and 3x on my Sabonis card just because they were traded. They are still the same player.

I understand when a good/great player goes from a bad team to a good team, but this was Sabonis went from bad to worse and Simmons went from one of the best teams in the East to one of the best teams in the East.

Get out.....buy single games the day of. This ensures you get the best prices and don't get stuck with tickets for a Lakers game on a Tuesday night when Lebron and Giannis both sit.
