About how long a drive.....

Map Quest route and time.

From where you live, Dogs, cross the river in Lacon and go to I39.

[dogsrus]

It's very close, about 1/2 block away.

They should build a sky walk.... Not to get off-topic but how cool will that be for BU games IF the Marriott gets built. Not only for road fans but for the home team fans. On those bad nites park and take the sky walk to the PCC.


What a great mkt. tool for out of towners.


Hope to see you all at UWM.

Is there a bridge?

For anyone traveling up to Milwaukee the next few days, be very cautious. Lots of ice thru Friday morning from Peoria north and then Milwaukee is suppose to get 12-14 inches of snow from tomorrow thru sunday morning. Going to be nasty on them roads, especially in the rural areas.

I wish I could go but have to attend to other business; the ones that are going need to give yourselves a lot of extra driving time as the forecast is not good , drive safe and bring home a win.

Hey

Hey Braves,

Just want to say how happy we are that a lot of you are deciding to make the trip up. Your fan base is everything I wish my fan base was.

If you all get bored with your function and want to hang out in a more college atmosphere, Major Goolsby's is across the street from the Hyatt, and it's also across the street from the Cell (the arena and Hyatt are kitty-corner). A small contingent of us should be there around 5:30 or so.

If you are looking for something after the game, the entire UWM team and coaches comes to Goolsby's following the game for the official Post-game Party. It's a really fun atmosphere and something you might want to do if you're staying in town overnight.

If you're looking for me at the game, I'll be the biggest guy in the front wearing a white #40 jersey. The core group of students will be staying in Milwaukee through Sunday so we can make the game, but we don't think we'll have more than 200 fans at the game.

Hope to see a lot of you in Milwaukee,
Black Panther UWM

Hi Jimmy- welcome here, it sounds like UWM needs a few hundred more rabid fans like you!

Weren't you in Peoria last February? I recall someone from UWM with a jersey on sat in section 12 behind the visitor's bench.

[2bradleyfans]

If the braves beat the Panthers does that constitute a "quality win?"

Or, is this a road game we are supposed to win, where a win does not help us but a loss would be damaging.

I think winning on the road at a Horizon Team's arena is a good win, albeit, a team with a somewhat lackluster RPI.

[BlackPantherUWM]

Yeah, a large group of us came down, but my friend and I snuck down and sat right behind the team bench. My friend was the one who got escorted out for drinking underage, if you recall. I was the much larger one haha

[ser_solace]

I'd say it's a good road win. It's not like they're FGCU, and the Horizon league looks strong this year.

[Da Coach]

Yeah, a large group of us came down, but my friend and I snuck down and sat right behind the team bench. My friend was the one who got escorted out for drinking underage, if you recall. I was the much larger one haha

I remember that well. Didn't you have a black jersey last year?

[BlackPantherUWM]

I like to think this is how the Midwest Conferences break down

Big 10
MVC
Horizon
MAC
Summit

[BlackPantherUWM]

Looking back at pics, I wore a black t-shirt over a long-sleeve gold t-shirt.

I have several game-worn jerseys, but I didn't wear any of them last year.

Yes, I remember that! Some of us got quite the laugh out of it!
