Being raised in Minnesota sports is often a disappointing experience. The last time the Minnesota Twins won The World Series was 1991. The Minnesota Vikings have never won the Super Bowl. If that wasn’t enough, both the Minnesota Wild and The Minnesota Timberwolves have never won championships. One team that was doing well was the Milwaukee Bucks which is Wisconsin’s Basketball team. The Bucks play at Fiserv Forum which is in downtown Milwaukee. A few weeks ago, we went to a Bucks game with my husband’s family and oddly enough, we went to the game where the Bucks played the Minnesota Timberwolves. Spoiler alert, Minnesota crushed Wisconsin.

Let’s be honest, Fiserv Forum is a much nicer stadium than Target Center (Target Center being where The Minnesota Timberwolves play). Outside of Fiserv, huge letters are spelling out Bucks which serves as the perfect background for a photo. Near the stadium, there are several bars and breweries to have a drink at. I thought the whole atmosphere of Fiserv was fun. The best part about watching sports live is to feel a part of the fan community. Sporting events are basically comic book conventions but centered around sports.

I made the earlier comment about Minnesota sports being disappointing. The Minnesota Timberwolves are doing great this season. I don’t follow Basketball, so I didn’t realize our team was doing so well. It ended up being a twenty-point game with Minnesota taking home the win. My father-in-law wasn’t too pleased, but I was happy.

I would definitely go to another Bucks game again. Fiserv Forum is a great stadium and the energy that fans bring is electric.
