Milwaukee Bucks bring basketball experience to Summerfest
The Milwaukee Bucks will once again be attending “The World’s Largest Music Festival,” as the team is set to bring its game night experience to Henry Maier Festival Park during the 50th Year of Summerfest. Current Bucks players John Henson, Gary Payton II and D.J. Wilson will be joined by Bucks legends Vin Baker, Bob Dandridge and Marques Johnson and the entire Bucks Entertainment Network at the Gruber Law Offices SportsZone during the 11-day festival.
The players will take part in a one-hour Bucks Basketball Experience show that will also feature mascot Bango, the Milwaukee Bucks Dancers, the Rim Rockers dunk team and Hoop Troop. They will interact with fans and take part in games where participants will have the opportunity to win prizes, such as merchandise and tickets to a 2017-18 Bucks game. Each player and legend will be available for autographs at the adjacent Bucks merchandise headquarters after the Bucks Experience Show is complete.
The Rim Rockers, who captivate crowds at the BMO Harris Bradley Center with their high-flying, acrobatic dunks, will also hold four, hour-long shows on June 29, July 4, July 5 and July 8 at the Gruber Law Offices SportsZone. Other Bucks entertainers performing at Summerfest include the Bucks Grand Dancers, who will perform on Thursday, July 6, at 12 p.m. and the Young Bucks Dancers, who will perform at 12 p.m. on Wednesday, July 5.
