Since it's opening in 1988, the Bradley Center has been an active part of Milwaukee's sports scene, entertaining over 2 Million people and hosting over 150 events every year.  The facility can accommodate 18,600 for basketball, up to 20,000 for concerts and has a total area of 550,000 square feet. 

The first game played at the Bradley Center was the Edmonton Oilers v. Chicago Blackhawks on October 1, 1988.  Thanks to her generosity and love for Milwaukee, Jane Pettit supported and funded the building of the more modern facility to upgrade the cities teams to a larger, more modern facility than the Milwaukee Arena.

Currently, the Milwaukee Bucks, Milwaukee Admirals, the Marquette University Golden Eagles men's basketball team and the Milwaukee Iron all call the Bradley Center home. 

One fact to note: the Bradley Center entered the Guiness Book of World Records for hosting the loudest indoor stadium crowd with106.6 db on December 20, 2008.
