BROWN CO., Wis. — As the Milwaukee Bucks continue their playoff run, local businesses are catching the Bucks Fever.

The Jersey Store in Ashwaubenon only has one rack of Bucks gear left at the moment, due to high demand. The Jersey Store manager, Mike Walters, said they used get away with only having four basic Bucks t-shirts and hats in stock; however, now that the team is doing well they are ordering more Bucks apparel.

"The most popular sells are anything with Giannis' name on it," said Walters.

Not only are Bucks fans flooding The Jersey Store, but they're packing Stadium View Bar next door as well. Stadium View Manager, Amber Wrona, says almost every table is full come game time. She said it's always great for business when a Wisconsin team is doing well.

"We hope they go all the way," said Wrona of the Bucks.

Those who are having Bucks viewing parties at home are also grabbing their Bucks themed treats from Uncle Mike's Bake Shoppe. Owner of Uncle Mike's Bake Shoppe, Mary Vande Walle, has made several Bucks baked goods, from sugar cookies with the Bucks logo on them, to basketball shaped cakes, to Bucks colored cupcakes.

"People are loving the sugar cookies with the Bucks logo on them," said Vande Walle.

Whatever the local business, the Bucks playoff run is helping out and they all hope for the Bucks to continue their success.
