MILWAUKEE - NCAA men's basketball tournament action is coming to Milwaukee this weekend.

Now that we know which teams will be hitting the hardwood, how can you get tickets that are going fast?

One way: do what Tony Katsune did, and head right to the Bradley Center box office.

He was willing to spend big bucks to see all six NCAA games at the Bradley Center, even though Marquette and Wisconsin are playing out of state.

"I wish Marquette or Wisconsin were playing here," explained Tony. "That would have been even more fun."

Bradley Center NCAA Games Friday: • 11:25 a.m.: (11) Minnesota vs. (6) Xavier • Approximately 1:55 p.m.: (14) Oakland, Mich. vs. (3) Pittsburgh • 6:15 p.m.: (10) Georgia Tech vs. (7) Oklahoma State • Approximately 8:45 p.m.: (15) UC-Santa Barbara vs. (2) Ohio State Sunday: • Opponents and times TBA

Tony chose not to buy a package for $213 because the only seats left at the Bradley Center box office would have left him sitting alone, and likely behind a pole.

"For $200 and some dollars, I can see it better on TV."

Or talk to a ticket broker, like Ticket King's James Bryce.

"We got some tickets, and we're hoping to get more," said Bryce. He explained that his company has a limited number of tickets, but a few more options.

"If you only want to see two games, at least you don't have to spend what you would to go see all six," said Bryce.

It will still run you at least $85 per ticket for a two-game session, but that is nothing for those faithful March Madness followers.

"I was surprised (the Bradley Center) had any tickets at all."

The Bradley Center is selling all-session tickets through Wednesday. Then they will offer all remaining seats as two-game, single-session tickets which go on sale on Thursday.

Milwaukee Police have a warning for you if you're headed to the games on Friday and Sunday.

They say you should buy your tickets from a legitimate broker, as scammers like to take advantage of people during high profile events.

Police also suggest if you are buying from someone, you should meet them at the Bradley Center ticket office so they can verify that they are legitimate tickets before you exchange money.
