Bucks, Marquette bid for future March Madness events at new arena

http://www.bizjournals.com/milwaukee/news/2017/03/18/bucks-marquette-bid-for-future-march-madness.html

"Along with our partners at Marquette, we are actively engaged in the bidding process for the 2019 through 2022 tournaments to keep NCAA basketball in Milwaukee, and we look forward to hosting many more tournament games and countless other events in the city's new world-class arena," Feigin said via email.



The BMO Harris Bradley Center, which will be demolished after the new Bucks arena opens, has hosted the first round of the college men's basketball tournament seven times: 1992, 1996, 1999, 2004, 2010, 2014 and now in 2017.

Why wouldn't they?
Have some patience, FFS.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a regional final and a frozen four in the first four years of the new arena

If I heard correctly, they will not be including an ice surface at the arena.

It will have the ability to have an ice surface.

Thought the Bucks were going to be playing UWM to play in their arena going forward, ai'na?

Nope, they are including an ice rink just so that they can get a Frozen Four (and Disney on Ice).  The admirals are not coming however.

Ha--exactly. Is this news?
In a shocking development the ncaa has decided to include the Milwaukee Bucks brand new trillion $ arena in their lot of possible tournament sites!

I would be beyond shocked to see a regional final in Milwaukee.

If the Admirals aren't coming and they tear down the BC, will they play at the old Arena?

Why? Louisville hosted one last year, Memphis hosts one this year, and Omaha hosts one next year.

If Milwaukee were to host a regional final, would that prevent MU from being placed in that region?

Last week we went through the rule on the first/second round.  What is the rule for regional finals?

I believe it is only for the first 2 rounds.

I think the problem has always been that Milwaukee doesn't have enough hotel space in the immediate downtown area.

Several have opened.  Way less true these days.

I have always been told this is a reason.  But they once held it in Madison and it doesn't have near the space that Milwaukee does. Furthermore you have 8 teams (and their fans) to host in a first/second round, but only 4 in a regional final.

They said the same about the MLB All-Star Game and that went fine. I mean, other than the whole "ends in a tie" thing.

Don't stop at a regional final. MSG is outdated and the BET could use a fresh venue.

Thanks! I was an Admiral's season ticket holder back in the late 80s-early90s prior to moving to Las Vegas.

Anxious for our Vegas Golden Knights to start next season.  The building of their practice facility is up two floors of girders out here in Summerlin (NW part of the Valley).

For those who somehow express uncertainty over MU's anticipated tenancy.
