    This is a nice race...even if you wimp out and only sign up for the 5k like me. :) All the races…read morehave good attendance but there's more hype around the quarter (its essentially a little less than doing a 10k) and the half marathon. I think it used to start later in the summer but they made the wise move of starting earlier in the June. Its a lot more pleasant to run when its 60 than when its 80 degrees out. With the quarter and half marathon: -you get to go on the Hoan bridge. -you get a "tech" material shirt. -you start right at 7 am vs 7:20. Why I didnt do the quarter marathon (other than I'm flabby and tired sometimes :): It's about $35 more for the quarter marathon and it starts at 7 am on a Saturday in summer. I dont know about you but it's really a gamble whether I'm getting my butt out of bed and showing up for these things on a weekend morning in summer. $30 is one thing - $65 is another. I registered late so it was $30 but you get goodies that make up for the cost including: -tshirt -medal -summerfest ticket -polish fest ticket -nice earbuds (you know you can always use more of these.) -free drink ticket -water, chocolate milk, banana, & snacks at finish. Couple things: - they ran out of large t-shirts by the time I got to pick up my stuff but medium is still pretty decent sized. -chocolate milk at the finish line=nothing I want in my GI tract after running hard in the summer. -I would suggest walking or biking down here if you live nearby at all. Many roads are closed in the morning and it just seemed a lot easier. Bike racks are next to the Summerfest Southgate and by the finish line

    I heart Milwaukee and I heart this race!…read more It was my second time running this half marathon and I finished 20 minutes faster than last year! I signed up at the Shamrock Shuffle 8K Expo in Chicago and got a discount as well as the dirfit shirt from last year's marathon...score! The course was pretty much the same as last year with a challenging start up and down the Hoan bridge twice!...and that wicked incline up to the residential area after mile 6. What makes this race special are the great scenic views of Milwaukee's Hoan bridge, lovely quiet mansions, downhill stretch down towards the lakefront, past Discovery World and the Milwaukee Art Museum. Energetic pacers will keep you in check in case the fun sights begin to distract you from a PR goal. Water/gatorade stations litter the course about every couple miles or so...the most I've seen in my history of running half marathons...all three of them! Entertainment along the way also took the form of a band rocking out the 80's music, a Chinese dragon, Mexican folk dancers, a saxophonist, a spectator dressed as Scooby Doo. Even the runners were part of the entertainment too. I saw one dressed as Elvis! Crossing that finish line with the Hoan bridge in view was an amazing feeling. The volunteers were so sincere in congratulating runners. I love love the chocolate milk you get at the end of the race. They actually have so much re-fueling snacks at the finish that I was running out of hands to carry it all! This race is definitely challenging but worth every minute of the blood, sweat, and tears. The free beer doesn't hurt either=)

    So I had heard the stories of years past when this race measured the course short and then long and…read moreall the additional issues. This year it was sold to a new organizer and the start and finish was moved to the the new Bucks Stadium Fiserv Center. Great venue for a large event like this. The race was also moved from fall to spring so it was an excellent goal to get in extra training during the frigid winter months. This was my first time doing the Milwaukee Marathon but I thought from start to finish it was very well organized, a great course, nice swag and after party.

    You know when you are crazy, when you decide to do 2 half marathons on two consecutive days. One…read moreSaturday and one Sunday in the same weekend. I did that on a nice chill weekend in October 2017. Illinois and Wisconsin. This kind of thing usually involves or nine craziness and just about enough devotion and dedication to long-distance endurance training that you want to do it. Some say crazy, but it is what it is. With that said and a heart full of Love for the sport, I came to the 2017 PNC Milwaukee marathon and half marathon with that same enthusiasm and zest that we distance junkies come to expect. It was nice to have both half marathons on that same weekend, plus it was only about an hours drive in between. So the logistics was pretty awesome for me. At the end of the day, the prize of finishing 13.1 miles at the Milwaukee half marathon was intense and very satisfying. It was my first time to the city of Milwaukee and the 4th trip to Wisconsin. It's definitely a nice city to have a marathon & half marathon race here. The overall experience here at the 2017 PNC Milwaukee marathon and half marathon was pretty good, although it turned out rough, especially with the marathon event. Controversy post race indeed made everything worst. For me, I didn't have any problems since I didn't do the marathon. (Ikr?) but for other friends, it was really frustrating and very annoying. Turns out that the marathon course was short almost a mile, and all signs point to a volunteer or someone marking it short. It is a sad state of affairs, really. But what can you do? Race day weekend started the day before, when we got to pick up our race bib at the expo. The race expo was held at the Harley Davidson museum. It was smaller than I anticipated but it suited the needs of the Milwaukee marathon race. Prices for the races vary, but best bet is to register early to get the best deal possible if you know in your heart you want to run in Milwaukee WI. Not sure about race day parking options, but plan accordingly and watch for race day instructions from the Milwaukee marathon, so you can be abreast of what to do then. All in all, can't complain really although for 2017, I do feel for those people who did the marathon event but learned that they really didn't do the marathon due to the course being 0.8 miles short. That's pretty huge. Nevertheless, I did the half marathon there and the medals are pretty nice. I learned later that the medal itself are generally the same, but the lanyard sash bore different colors, depending on what race you ran. Apparently, i received the marathon colored sash versus the half marathon one. Initially I thought the medals were event specific, but eventually learned that even the 5km medal was the same design. Just the sash color is different. lol So ya, if you feel like racing here in Milwaukee WI in October, you may want to do the half marathon vs the marathon. At least for now till they get the marathon sorted out. I heard that it's not the first time there was a disruption. Course support is good and the aid stations are good. 4.0 stars for the overall experience. Race more! Support local! B

    I must say... There really doesn't seem to be a bad seat in this stadium. I've been on the third…read morefloor, sections 207 and 206 for basketball games. Both had (ok, not fantastic), but great bird's eye view of the game. I was ok with the view for the price I paid. Now, if I was here for a concert, I might not want to be up there. Second floor views are much better, but duh. The stairs going up and down are steep so be careful. I have tripped and rolled once. Not fun. Trust me. Be careful. The shop inside is also very nice, and open to public even when there isn't a game on.

    I'm writing this review specifically to highlight the amazing experience at the BMO Club at Fiserv…read moreForum. From start to finish, it completely elevates the game day experience. You start by entering through a private entrance that leads directly into the club. After passing through security, you scan your ticket and receive a wristband that gives you access to both your seats and the club throughout the game. As soon as you enter the club, you'll notice an opening into the players' tunnel. If you grab your seat early, you may even catch a glimpse of the players and some of our All-Stars heading to the court. While you're waiting for the game to start, you can explore the five food stations inside the club. The food is absolutely amazing -- this is not typical arena food. You can help yourself to pizza, chicken tenders, hot dogs, crab rangoon, spring rolls, Brussels sprouts, and a variety of Asian dishes. If you're looking for something lighter, there are fresh salads, fruit, and a charcuterie board. And don't miss dessert! There's a dessert table plus soft-serve ice cream with plenty of toppings to choose from. There are also two full bars inside the club, and everything is included with your BMO Club tickets. The service truly takes the experience over the top. You're greeted with smiles everywhere you go, the food stations stay fully stocked, and staff are constantly walking around clearing tables, sweeping, and making sure everything stays spotless. They genuinely make you feel like they want you to have the best experience possible. After the game, the staff even lines up outside the club doors to thank you and say goodbye as you leave. And of course, the seats themselves are incredible. I sat in the fifth row from the court, and it was a completely different experience than any game I've attended before. Overall, it was an unforgettable night and an incredible way to experience a game.

    1.1 miLower East Side, Riverwest

    Won a ticket from good ole Yelp! First thing wife says "we aren't doing the tomato fight are we?"…read moreWell as a matter of fact, hell no we aren't. I'm a bit to old to get in a caged ring with a bunch of youngsters chucking rotten tomatoes at each other. It does make for a good watch though and that we did. First this 2017 11th Eastside Annual Tomato Romp couldn't have dreamt up better weather. It was sunny and crisp out and so it began, the jaunt around to hit up 8 different pubs and enjoy a 5 oz. sample at each location. That's 40 oz of the goods! If you didn't walk away full or buzzed... well that's your problem. As expected some bloodies weren't nearly as good a s others and thus why they call it a contest. Still trying to figure out who won the damn event. Voting was as easy as 1, 2, 3 so that was a plus. All the places to try the juice were centrally located except Buddha Lounge which was a little further walk away. No matter I crowned one of favorite local spots Vintage as the Bloody Mary Champ. We'll see if it holds true. After that Vitucci's, Hooligan's and Landmark Lanes all had tasty bloodies, in that order. Fun event, good weather and lot's of people roaming around MKE make for a great day!

    The Eastside Tomato Romp enters it's 7th year as an awesome fundraiser for the North Avenue BID…read more And it's a pretty cool one at that! For years my friends and I have been marking this September event date on our calendars when it's announced in early spring. And as with any annual event, it's great to see improvements made each year. The two largest draws are the Tomato Fight and the Bloody Mary Crawl. The Tomato Fight takes place at 4pm($10 entry fee goes to a local food pantry). A chain link cage (less the roof) is assembled in the parking lot between Farwell and Murray just north of North Avenue. The cage is filled with donated tomatoes and eagerly awaits the throngs of most costumed tomato fighters. Even spectators getting unwittingly pulled into the act when errant tomatoes fly past the 15 foot sidewalls. As fun as watching this spectacle is the many rookie fighters that are ill-prepared for life after the fight. Tomatoes are juicy, and therefore wet. And wet means cold, especially when the high temp this year barely crossed 64 degrees. But these gladiators of produce are unfazed. Some set out to the nearby sponsoring credit union that offers a "hose off" station. And some begin what is likely to be a very long walk home, no matter how close they live. New in 2012 and every since it the Tomato Plate Crawl. For $2-$8 for a tasting plate the 12 participating restaurants will regale your tastebuds with all things tomato. The other major draw is the Bloody Mary Tasting Crawl. Pay $20, get a wristband and scorecard, and embark on a self guided tour of some of the divey-est, hipster-esque, popular, and trendy places on and around North Ave. The participating bars must follow three rules: Use the sponsor vodka (SKYY in 2014), use the sponsor chaser beer (Milwaukee Brewing Company Outboard in 2014) and garnish with only a lemon and or lime wedge if at all. From the start there seem to be issues with the chaser beer and we estimate we received the official beer at about half of the 14 stops. But this was about the bloodies and they ranged from solid (Divino, embracing basil) to over-spiced (Rascals) to culinary (Hooligans cumin based bloody tasted like a great chili starter), to one dimensional and overdone (BBC- black pepper, Replay - teriyaki) to downright undrinkable (note to School Yard, please balance your overly infused with pickle juice bloody with a little tomato flavor next year). Yield Bar took home the double crown as the Choice of both the People and the Judges even though no one in our group would choose to order it again. Go figure. But the point was fun and the Tomato Romp packs that year after year. So mark your calendar early and get it on it.
