Great vibe in the house. Special energy when your team travels and you know the fan base traveled with them.

We got rhe MVp, MVP, MVP and no doubt more than 50% Bulls fans...of course the "Congrats to the Super Bowl PAkers" ont eh big screen was a shot.

Almost not that much fun as it was hard to find a Bucks fan in the area.

yeah i was in the first row of the upper deck section 432 (behind the left backboard on the TV telecast) i was amazed to get a 4-piece for $100 str8up, so that worked out. obviously as you said it was 50+% bulls fans and the MVP chants were all over... not to mention i loved all the booing of the bucks during just about everything.

it amazed me how nobody up there seems to give a shit about andrew bogut. i was influenced by this ~300lb woman in a walker/wheelchair right behind me (behind row A was the invalid section) and holy shit she was on him all game like NICE DEFENSE BOGUT YOU FUCKING BLOW! HEY WHERE'S THE FUCKING REBOUND?!?! FUCK YOU BOGUT I'M IN A GODDAMN WHEELCHAIR AND WALKER AND I CAN REBOUND BETTER THAN YOU!!

true to form, everyone there or at least the kids seem to rock either jennings or the occasional redd jersey... well except that pimp dude they showed 2-3 times on the junbotron... i wonder what his deal is.. i think he even had a legitimate pimp cup with him? yeah.

i think they're back up there in a month and the same dude has the same 4-piece for like $150 this time... heh. dunno if i'm going to do that one, as one pilgrimage is enough for awhile... besides with the brewers 20pack i've got a chance to win a skybox for a game! i'll be up in brewtown enough over the next few months

Bogut still sponsoring Squad 6?

There's a really good Ethiopian jernt just East of that area called Alem, they should change their name to-Ayum:

the Best Western near the Bradley Center (or some such hotel) has pair-of-Bucks-tickets-and-a-room deals.

Amtrak costs more than driving (esp if you wanna do much while up there, cabs cost more than Chicago) but it's nice to be able to get yer drink on on the way up and then sleep off the night before on the train ride back to downtown Chicago. Esp good for Summerfest.

the one thing i remember was when ever luc mbah a mboute scored they played that twelve song... i dunno the original source material but it's the one venetian snares sampled for his song called, oddly enough, twelve --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6egLLKdbjI (it's the campy lil old funky sample in the beginning and at the end, without the glitchery)

i was singing that real loud whenever he got a foul called on him. i don't think the fat crippled bucks fans behind me appreciated it none too much... tho i was equal opportunity, ppl coulkdn't figure out what a guy in a california angels hat and 2pac shirt was on about, especially when i was fucking overjoyed to see earl MANkins go off in the 4th quarter. that was my most joyous part of the evening, especially when i explained the legend of earl MANkins vs the lakers earlier this year @ the bradley center, and like, sure enough he lived up to it again.

I was up there too. Upper deck sec 405 where all the rowdy latinos with Bulls gear on. The vibe in the buiding was good. All the Bulls fans in the house were awesome. We heckled the bucks and packer fans. Some packer fan kept doin the Aaron Rodgers championship belt pose as his response :lol: it was all good n fun though

We were also at the burger joint across the street before and after the game

i do that german brewery spot (the mb logo?) right there on third street.... not to be confused with the supergermanrestaurant a few buildings down with the $20+ appetizers and shit, barring the odd occasion i'm tryin'ta impress a bitch named heidi. anyhow, the giant stines of dark beer at my spot get the job done (combined with a oney especially... oh shit 1-2 months away) and it never hurts to see some chicks in the whole german oktoberfest getup... but yeah you got it down hernandez... i confess to just droppin $15 at the parking garage right there and waiting an hour or so til everything clears up so i was good and ready to make i-94/41south my bitch (fucka ipass)

Went to lots of Bucks games when I lived downtown there. I was curious where
you guys went before or after the game. Buck Bradleys, Turners and Major
Goolsby's are all decent. I think there might be a place called Game Time as
well but I haven't been to a game in a few years so it could have changed names.
Good atmosphere there around the Bradley Center for drinks and a bite before or
after the game.
