Freeway

freeway.jpgIf you've ever been to a Milwaukee Bucks or Marquette Basketball game you have probably been exposed to the eclectic dancing style of Freeway. A huge basketball fan, Freeway, a.k.a. Mike McCarter is at more games than not. His presence has transcended the floor of The Bradley Center, as he is featured prominently in promotional videos run on the jumbotron during Bradley Center events.

Freeway attained his name from frequently being spotted standing on the Wisconsin Avenue bridge over I-43 in downtown Milwaukee. Not one to shy away from conversation, Freeway can usually be found around town carrying an Aldi grocery bag complete with Zack Morris style cellular phone because, “trouble lurks at every corner.” Although he is always ready to discuss any topic except hockey, It's highly unusual for a mere mortal to keep up with his fast paced conversations. If you're unable to keep pace with his conversation, you're unlikely to have any success matching his dancing prowess which can be seen in the Bradley Center aisles during Marquette and Buck's games timeouts.

Urban Legend?

Rumor has it that Freeway was hit by either a city bus or Marquette Limo and settled for a reward of lifetime season tickets to the Bucks, Brewers and Marquette Warriors instead of money. Nevertheless, he rarely misses a game. Former Marquette Men's Basketball coach, Dukiet allowed Freeway to watch the game from the bench.

Just to add to the legend, Freeway was actually hit by a Milwaukee County Bus, and his settlement was free tickets to every sporting event in Milwaukee County (Bucks, Marquette, Brewers (both county stadium and miller park)). He may also have tickets to the Admirals and the Wave (they play in Milwaukee County too), but Freeway has not yet been spotted at these sporting events.
