Wisconsin Badgers Men's Basketball Tickets

Founded in 1898 in Madison, Wisconsin, Wisconsin Badgers men's basketball blends tradition with grit. The program captured the 1941 national championship, reached the Final Four in 2000, 2014 and 2015, and has collected multiple Big Ten regular season and tournament titles. Bo Ryan's disciplined era and stars like Frank Kaminsky, Michael Finley and Alando Tucker shaped a winning identity, capped by the unforgettable 2015 win over previously unbeaten Kentucky. Home games at the Kohl Center surge with energy, led by the Grateful Red student section and the time-honored Varsity singalong after the final horn. The annual in-state showdown with Marquette and the Border Battle with Minnesota keep rivalries fierce.
