MILWAUKEE -- Aaron Rodgers and a few other members of the Green Bay Packers took a quick drive down I-43 Thursday evening to cheer on the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 3 of their playoff series against the Toronto Raptors.
Rodgers was seated near backup quarterback Brett Hundley. Later in the game when he was shown on the BMO Harris Bradley Center's jumbotron, fans broke out in loud cheers and "MVP" chants.
Offensive lineman David Bakhtiari and new tight end Martellus Bennett were on hand to cheer the deer as well.

The green and gold may have been a good luck charm for the Bucks, as they romped to a 104-77 blowout in Game 3. It might have had something to do with the "Barney" theme song being played, too.
Game 4 is Saturday at 2:00 p.m.
