Bucks announce new floor needs resurfacing and ticket offer

MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- Representatives from the Milwaukee Bucks, NBA officials, and flooring industry manufacturers and vendors convened in Milwaukee Tuesday, October 29th to review the floor situation that occurred last Friday, preventing the Bucks’ preseason game vs. Toronto from being completed.

It was determined Wednesday by the NBA, after input from the team, the BMO Harris Bradley Center and the various flooring personnel in attendance, that the floor should be resurfaced.

The Bucks and the NBA share an unyielding commitment to player safety and agreed that the floor refinishing, which is expected to be completed in three weeks or less, is the best long-term solution.

In the interim, the Bucks will play on the team’s prior court, used by the team throughout the 2012-13 regular season and playoffs.

While there is no definitive date at this time upon which the new court will be completed, the Bucks are offering fans a unique opportunity to guarantee they’ll be in attendance when the new floor makes its regular season debut.

The team on Wednesday launched a “New Floor Guaranteed” ticket offer for select upper-level seats.

As part of the offer, any fan who purchases a “New Floor Guaranteed” ticket for the home opener on Nov. 2 will receive a complimentary ticket for every subsequent game up to and including the game when the critically-acclaimed new floor makes its first appearance.
