Post Game Opportunity On Court Following Game
Saturday, Jan. 16 | vs. Xavier | 1 p.m.
Kids 12 & Under Can Shoot A Free Throw & Have Photo Op w/ Mascot

Following Saturday's basketball game vs. Xavier, children 12 & under will have an opportunity to take a shot on the Al McGuire Court at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. To be able to take a shot on court, kids must claim a voucher at the MU marketing table (outside sec. 225) while at the game. Vouchers will be limited, and are available on a first-come, first-served basis for all kids in attendance (age 12 & under).

Following the game, all kids with vouchers should head to section 225 to line up for the on-court opportunity. Staff will direct both kids and parents to the court for the free throw and photo opportunity with the Golden Eagle.

Pregame Concert Series in the East Atrium

Marquette men's basketball fans will now be able to enjoy a pregame concert series prior to each of the team's Saturday BIG EAST home games at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. The performances will take place in the east atrium of the arena (4th Street side of building) and begin when doors open to the general public, which is one hour prior to opening tip.

Vinyl Groove (Jan. 16 vs. Xavier) is a five piece Rock 'n Roll band from SE Wisconsin that focuses on playing music first released on vinyl recordings. The band features vintage rock, R&B and other popular hit music from the '60's through the early '80's. Their repertoire includes artists such as The Rolling Stones, Van Morrison, Sam and Dave, Boz Scaggs, Joe Cocker, The Beatles and many more.

I'm taking my 2-year old son out there and "helping" him shoot.

  Love the live music in the atrium that has acoustics just like Carnegie Hall. We could barely decipher a thing last Saturday which was a shame, sounded like she might have an incredible voice.

Wonder if I get to shoot a FT if I act like I'm 12.

Just say you are 12.  Might draw the attention of one of the coaches.

They should get a punk or wave band that covers the Buzzcocks, Blow Monkeys, Lene Lovich, and the Sex Pistols

Someone's done their market segmentation research on the yellow sweater vest crowd.

Glad this happened after my Eagle tenure.

What's the link between this and a bunch of college students (and sweater vest types) acting like 12 year olds and storming the court (to shoot free throws?) after MU upsets the number 7 team in the country?

[MomofMUltiples]

Wait! There's more!  If more than 2000 students show, MUBB is hosting a pizza party for the student body!  They should throw in some free beers for all the loyal season ticket holders, now that they've decided to resort to bribery, huh?

Is that like Angelo's pizza or is it like SAGA pizza?

Hmmmm. No foolin'.
