Hi fellow Celtics fans, my first forum post.

I recently found this article about Milwaukee's center Andrew Bogut.  He bought 100 lower seats for loyal fans for the season.  The fans had to audition for the seats and maintain good attendance to keep them.

I've seen some Bucks games on television and had always wondered about the rowdy group I see in the stands.

Funny story about what the fans did to Joakim Noah.

cool story and those fans sound fun.

the celtics had something similar when ricky davis was here.  he held auditions for some fans to get season tickets, they were called the get buckets brigade.

the bucks' fans seem alot better than the brigade fans, based on the article.

Good story, but many of the C's have been giving seats away for some time as well, (and many other NBA players, for that matter). TP for a positive story in the midst of all the "OMG we've lost two-in-a-row - time to freak out!" gloom-and-doom, though.

pretty cool. Bogut is growing on me. Hard nosed post player, good hands, old fashioned game. I like the guy.
