When Will Milwaukee Get The NBA All-Star Game?

Though the game itself might be forgettable, hosting an All-Star game is a big deal for a pro sports city. If you were around Milwaukee in 2002, you may recall the hubbub around Major League Baseball’s All-Star Game (I was there!) which went down infamously in a tie. Soon enough the city will get its chance to “redeem” itself since modern MLB stadiums are starting to see their second All-Star Game (Denver, Cleveland, Seattle), but there’s a new building in town that needs to see one first.

The Bradley Center aged pretty rapidly and never hosted an NBA All-Star Game, but the old Mecca did host the 1977 game.
