"Cold" Serve Forum

[NotAnAlum]

Generally impressed with the Fiserv last night except for one major problem.  The cold air blowing on us from behind was really annoying.  We sit along the sideline a few rows from the top of the lower bowl.  There was literally a cold wind blowing on our backs the entire game.  I looked around and others close to us had hoodies and coats on.  My buddy said he couldn't wait to get outside to "warm up".  Did anyone else have a similar experience?  Were they running the AC last night and just have it out of adjustment?  Is there anyone to talk to about that who can get it changed.  The closest ducts seem to be pretty far up so its kind of hard to tell what was causing this.  I suggested that if this was getting all the way to the court maybe that was why both teams shot so poorly.  They were COLD

My seats are 3rd row of sec 208.   It was extremely cold.  Everyone was bundled up like a fall Packer game.  Distracted us from the game for sure. 

Was wondering if maybe there was better margins on hot chocolate sales vs the $12 beers?

Wear a sweater

[Marcus92]

Have you seen those 4 giant (20-foot diameter?) air circulation fans up in the rafters? I noticed the cool temperature, as well -- and even saw a fan sitting ahead of me who wore her winter coat and knit hat the entire game. Hopefully they'll get that balanced out. I doubt it's enough to affect play on the court.

That last part was a joke son

[fjm]

Yeah. It was cold in the new grad area with that constant breeze. I tried to convince myself and my girlfriend it was coming from outside on the new deck area. Apparently I was very wrong. I owe her a beer.

Sheesh really hoping that stuff stops.

Ohhhhhhhh, so that's how a sweater vest fan is born!

Apparently, if you sit in last 5-8 rows of the lower bowl, you get a draft from the open concourse...especially if you're closer to the aisle.  People sitting further down from there are not feeling the draft, so I hear.

[TallTitan34]

I felt a little chilly walking the lower concourse before the game.  I didn't notice it when I got to the upper deck.

[Spotcheck Billy]

Sitting in row 6 0f 207 we felt the draft coming down from above us all night.

[mubb3434]

215 row 6 was really cold. At least the band mic was not as bad this time around?

[Warrior1969]

Hmmm  Maybe not as "world class" as hyped?  Ridiculous honestly

We sit in the same general area.  There is a constant cold breeze blowing throughout the game...not cool, but COLD.  My wife wore her (winter) coat for the entire game and was still cold.

I guess we know why the option of hanging up coats is not as widely available this year.

Wasn’t in my seats yesterday. Did a lot of walking and watching. Was the cold breeze better yesterday?

I thought it was. That said, it doesn't bother me.

I was in 103 and then went up to the Panorama Club (seen it once now, that’s all I need), and then sat with some friends in 212 for a bit. Thought all 3 spots were warm.

[ducs]

We’re in Sec 119 row 20. It was fine most of the game until about 10 mins left in the game. Had to put our coats on

Could feel the breeze in 103.

Section 116 cold again.  Spoke to one of the ushers about it.  She said a number of people have said the same thing.  She "hopes it will get better as we get into winter."  Well it was below freezing at game time yesterday so I really don't think getting into winter is going to help.  I'd really like to find some way to get the complaints to someone who can take some action.  Anybody have any ideas?

[MUEng92]

Bethune-Cookman's coach was blowing into his hands just before tipoff

[MUUWUWM]

It was very cold, draft blowing down my neck all game.

Also i sit 2nd row upper middle and when i got up to leave my knees hurt like hell all the way up them damn steps.
I figure lost 2-3 inches of leg room from the BC.

Next year i am downstairs.

I bet they keep the air conditioning on all year, as punishment for not taking lowers.

Mr Nielsen is our hope.

[Mr. Nielsen]

I feel powerless on this one if the Fiserv Forum staff is aware of this. I will ask my Marquette people tomorrow about this cold breeze to see if they are aware of this. Another idea is to email the Bucks to see if there aware. The Bucks have tons of ticket member staff workers that would get back to you with some sort of answer.

I sit in section 114, row 14. I just feel a slight breeze on the back of my neck.  Feels fine with my sweatshirt on. That said, when I entered the building in the lobby, I did feel like it was cold.

SEC 116 - ROW 12

Everyone in our row was freezing. There was a strong cold current blowing down on our necks most of the game.

There is definitely a design issue.

We are bringing hoodies for the next game!
