MILWAUKEE TAILGATE
IT'S A BANNER YEAR
FOR THE CREAM CITY.
After the Brewers put
together a division-winning
2024 season and the Bucks
brought home a new NBA
Cup trophy to end the year,
2025 is certain to be an
even bigger year of sports
in Milwaukee, featuring
a packed calendar with
adrenaline-pumping action
Just a month later, Wisconsin
will be on the clock as the
site of the National football
League Draft.
Taking place in Green Bay,
this will be the state's first
NFL draft since Milwaukee
hosted it in 1939.
With Milwaukee's historic
ties to the Packers and
fan-filled Milwaukee hotels
during the April 24-26 draft,
it makes sense that the
Cream City gets in on the
excitement.
Milwaukee Tailgate Week
presented by Potawatomi
Sportsbook will celebrate
the draft with a parade of
festivities. On April 25, fans
are invited to an exclusive
draft-focused taping of
"Inside the Huddle" at the
UW-Milwaukee Panther
Arena, featuring Packers'
legends including Jordy
Nelson, surprise guests
and more.

BASKET
BALL
It all kicks off when
madness descends upon
MKE for the first and
second rounds of the
NCAA Division I Men's
Basketball Tournament.
From March 21-23, eight
teams will look to survive
and advance in one of
the most unpredictable
season-ending spectacles
in American sports.
