Nice, 48 hours notice, haha! Thankfully I'm going to the game so it worked out. I'll take Brandon Jennings for sure.

Has anyone done the meet and greet? Is it like a get a pic and autograph?

I think I selected a different STH event. Not the meet and greet.

Yeah I think the STH event is different. I know a few years back they had something at like Whirlyball and I never could attend them so stopped selecting that benefit.

I don't know if ill pick meet and greet again either just for fact it was like 48bhour notice. I lucked out that it is a game I planned to attend all along.

Also my rep told me, no autographs but get photo opp. I'm cool its Jennings, always liked him even if it ended a little sour. But obviously that's all ancient history to most.

Definitely splitting hairs but what did they label the event as? I thought it was Bucks legend or something? Jennings has some recentcy bias with him, but I don't think he makes the Bucks top 30. No all-stars, No POM, No All-NBA, 4-8 Playoff Record (Lol, forgot he played in the 2018 playoffs).

Obviously, would never get my hopes up with Oscar or KAJ, but was hoping they could bring in a Moncrief, Pressey level player. (Sadly, guys like Johnny Mac and Dandridge are getting to old for some of these events).

It was called Meet and Greet with Bucks Alumni. I was secretly hoping for Big Dog even though I knew chances were low.

I did see they have an email survey out and to me seems like they may be revising/overhauling the rewards program. My biggest disappointments are I think some of items should be standard like pro shop discount and some concession credits, or even tiered for more for people that spend more.

Big Dog doesn't seem to have much to do with the Bucks. I don't know if it's because they never reach out to him or if he doesn't have any intertest.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

To be honest they have not done much at with the 2001 team, which surprises me a little since it was really a popular team and they're really bringing back the purple merch this year (which I love). I dont think Ray has been brought back ever either. Maybe its part the bad blood between Ray and Karl, and some vitriol with that trade with fans.

Big Dog was at a game like 5-6 years ago I know. I was bummed I couldn't do the meet and greet i recall. But yeah that was pretty much it. He seems to lay low. He did an interview with Q & Darius Miles last summer that was good.

Meet and great was cool albeit quick. Got a few pics and Jennings was friendly. No autographs as I was told. Think that disappointed many. I'm glad I left at 6 minute mark in 2nd as the line got really long. I'll take it, glad I was able to go.

We seem to do little with the past. When we played the Celtics at Mecca it would have been the perfect time to have a bunch of players from that era be introduced at halftime. Instead they had some weird art thing. The only former player in attendance was Redd, who never played there. Weird.

That sucks to have to miss some of the game. They should have done this before the game?

Yes, we were told to line up by the suite escalator with 4 minutes remaining in the 2nd. We were some of the last people to meet brandon and by the time we were finished there was 5 minutes left in the 3rd!!! So most people essiantly missed a part of the 2nd as they made it down there. All of halftime and some of the third. Brandon was nice and seemed genuine and that he was not forced to be there. Still cool but the Bucks always mess events up...ALWAYS

Yeah, I missed 1/2 2nd quarter and got back to my seat right as 3rd quarter was starting. Agree, it should've been a pre game deal even if it meant opening doors at 530pm for special access.

They also should've been upfront or been more clear with no autographs. I think that irked many.

Agree that Jennings seemed genuine. It was really quick so interaction wasn't much but he was engaged so that's cool. Id consider picking that as a benefit again but like said, the minimal notice and possibility to miss half the game isn't super appealing.

The Bucks are clueless on so many levels. Having a STH event DURING the game. Dumb.

It's been awhile since I had season tix but 1 thing they did that was cool was have 2 dinners every year, one around Xmas and one near the end of the season. Either at Mecca or the Milwaukee Theater. Decent food and drinks, they gave away a ton of stuff, Paschke and McGlockin MC'd. There was usually some former players that would go around from table to table as did Kohl. Always held a couple of hours before the game. Now granted not everyone could be down there at 5:00 for a 7:00 game but it beats having to miss a chunk of the game for a brief event. Or course there were less season ticket holders then but you didn't have to choose an event. They always did a preseason event too at the BC. Free apps and they had 5-10 current players signing autographs.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
