Bradley Center
We Are Marquette, or Fear The Dear are ofter sayings at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee Wisconsin. Since 1988 The Bradley Center has been in service to the Marquette Golden Eagles men's basketball team, Milwaukee Bucks, Milwaukee Admirals, and the Milwaukee Iron.
Owned by the state of Wisconsin, the Bradley center was built at $90 million to make a modern arena in the state. MECCA (now the U.S. Cellular Arena) was replaced but both stadiums are in operation; and remain located next to each other. Additionally the Bradley Center has 8,000 plus seats and is 38 years younger than the U.S. Cellular Arena.
As it is only 24 years old the Bradley Center is already wanting to be replaced. That would leave 3 mid sized arenas in a mid sized town. The Bradley Center was built to be the home arena for a NHL hopeful team that never came to Milwaukee. Now the main arena for the Bucks and Marquette; is not a decent basketball arena due to seating arrangements. A new Arena in Milwaukee is needed in my opinion because the Bradley Center may not be able to accommodate the Bucks and keep them in town.
