BROOKFIELD, Wis.—Fiserv and the Milwaukee Bucks announced a new recognition program that pays tribute to the nation's military by honoring a Veteran of the Game. Honorees will be recognized at 10 home games at Fiserv Forum over the course of the 2019-20 season.
The Veteran of the Game will receive four complimentary game tickets and the opportunity to watch warmups courtside. At a break in the game the veteran will be welcomed and honored by the public address announcer, and personal photographs selected by the veteran will be shown on the center scoreboard, Fiserv said.
The Veteran of the Game program is part of “Fiserv Salutes,” which supports the company’s engagement with the military community with a focus on employment, experience and entrepreneurship.
“We are incredibly grateful for the service of the active military and veterans who have sacrificed so much for our country,” said Jeffery Yabuki, chairman and chief executive officer of Fiserv, in a statement. “We are committed to providing veterans special access to career opportunities and education resources while also offering a suite of premier business solutions to veteran-owned businesses.”
Tickets Reserved
During the 2019-20 regular season, Fiserv said a specific number of tickets for each Milwaukee Bucks home game will be reserved for military members, priced at $15. The offer is open to veterans nationwide, however, the tickets must be purchased in-person at the Fiserv Forum box office. A valid military I.D. must be shown at the time of purchase. With the purchase of each ticket as part of Fiserv Salutes, the military member will also receive a co-branded Bucks and Fiserv commemorative pin.
