I kinda like that as a nickname for the new building. The Fifo...or not.

I didn't know the accountants were put in charge of the nickname.
Have some patience, FFS.

Guess we will be doing more pre- and post- gaming at those prices.


Which they probably don't mind anyway.

Sad to see a perfectly good building in the Bradley Center be destroyed, but that is coming next.

Define "perfectly good."

$11 beer?

I am completely shocked they are using this opportunity to extract more revenue from fans.

You're never too old to crotch a 50 ml airplane bottle of rum or vodka. I'm guessing the cost on soda will be lower than beer.

My guess is that sodas will run about $9.50.

I was there for about an hour.  Lower bowl is good.  Less suites than Bradley Center.  Concourse bars are nice.  Bathrooms plenty, but didn’t like the big M and W signage designating men’s or women’s.  Seemed weird, maybe a Milwaukee thing.  Scoreboard is sharp, thought the sound needed some work.  Locker room was spacious, and they have this central area where the players can high five the fans of you are part of BMO club.  All the seats are dark grey.  Marquette banners were redone to fit the space.

What a bizarre thing to get hung up on

When I first glanced at the hyperlink I thought it was for a Fiserv Forum website and that it said Fifo rather than Fevo.

I kinda like that as a nickname for the new building. The Fifo...or not.

For most OOC games, it is LIFO.

That's ridiculous. That's higher than the United center even is and Milwaukee's supposed to be so much more cost effective

It is - for the owners of the Bucks.

I got a bottle of 16oz Coke that cost $5.

How is the scoreboard?  Sounds awesome.  Seats?  Legroom, cupholders, aisle length?  Are you jammed in or room to manspread?

Scoreboard is huge!!

The seats do have more leg room. About 2 to 3 inches. Cupholders are nice. Are you jammed in, no. Can you manspread, a touch more than the BC. Seats in the upper deck do have bigger back on it. You will not have a head in your way.

I thought this a very smart idea. In the men's bathroom there is a shelf that is about 6 feett high in your urinal where you can place your drink. Plus, each urinal has a divider wall.

Certainly fits with the 'hedge fund boys' standard operating procedure.

I just hope they aren't adapting the WinTrust arena's clear-purse policy.  That is a major PITA.

Gf has these things called tampon flasks. Works great for women. Cheap on amazon, and as long as you go through a check point with a guy security checker, you’re golden. (Unless that guy is a tampon salesman? Or into some funky tampon butt stuff.)

You are a class act, fjm.

Anyhoo, the first time I had to deal with the clear-purse issue was when my brother took me to a Tennessee Titans game.  He was kind enough to supply me with the clear backpack, then handed me a small, bright pink Lilly Pulitzer makeup bag and said, "Could you throw this in there for me? 

You guessed it.  It was crammed full of airport liquor bottles.  And it got through security without a problem.

I really hope this catches on and 10,000 people show up to a game in February in flip flops.

In February, it will certainly be flip-flops and socks.

Per twitter, $11 for a Miller lite at the stadium.

Higher than Wrigley or Madison square garden. Way higher than Atlanta's family friendly concessions.

Brutal

From pictures I've seen online, it looks like $12 beer.

I'll definitely make more of an effort this year to visit a local pub before the game to fuel up before heading in. The Turner Hall restaurant has new ownership I'm excited about.
