OSHKOSH, Wis. — The Wisconsin Herd tells us the excitement for the Milwaukee Bucks playoff run is just as strong in Northeast Wisconsin as it is in Milwaukee.

President of the Wisconsin Herd Steve Brandes tells us their pro shop is doing very well with Bucks Fever.

"We're selling like hotcakes," said Brandes.

He says the most popular items are the playoff t-shirts and Giannis Antetokounmpo jerseys.

Not only are they seeing Bucks Fever apparent through their merchandise sales, but also through their watch parties. Each game the Wisconsin Herd hosts a watch party at a different local sports bar. Brandes says they pack every bar they host at.

"It's hard to find a seat," said Brandes.

Brandes says the watch parties are a fun way to engage in camaraderie and cheer on the Bucks.

The game 4 watch party will take place at Back Again! Stadium Bar in Oshkosh at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Along with the viewing of the game, there will be trivia and raffles.
