Headed to the NBA Playoffs as the number one seed in the Eastern Conference and with the NBA’s best record, the Milwaukee Bucks are encouraging fans across Milwaukee and Wisconsin to be a part of the excitement of playoff basketball.

The Bucks have extensive activities planned for the first round of the playoffs, including all-fan giveaways, watch parties on the plaza in front of Fiserv Forum and more. Extremely limited tickets are still available for first round games and can be purchased by visiting bucks.com/playoffs.

Beginning with Game 1 at Fiserv Forum (playoff schedule to be announced Wednesday evening), all fans in attendance will receive a "Built to Stay" Bucks T-shirt presented by Johnson Controls, while all fans attending Game 2 will receive a "Fear the Deer" T-shirt presented by Kohl’s. T-shirts will also be provided to all fans attending any additional first round games at Fiserv Forum.

Those who aren’t attending a game can still come to Deer District and party with fellow Bucks fans on the plaza, in The Beer Garden and throughout the entertainment block. For each game of the first round – home or away – a 40-foot high TV will be placed on the plaza for fans to watch each game, in addition to the outdoor TV already in place in The Beer Garden.

There also will be food, games, a DJ, retail shops, contests to win playoff tickets and more set up on the plaza, turning it into a must-be spot for Bucks playoff action. Activities on the plaza in front of Fiserv Forum will open two hours prior to each home playoff game and one hour before each road game.
