You guys are going to hate me for this and probably ask how I am a Packers fan....I have never been to Lambeau Field. Spent 4 years at a private college and I have so much loan debt I can't afford to ever go to a game, nor could I in the past. Bet it is real great.

I offered to take a friend of mine who is a Bear's fan "Mecca" for the Packer-Bears game. He just couldn't work things out this year. I told him that he has to see a game in GB once in his lifetime.

Over the past three seasons.. I have given away 5 sets of tickets that were passed to me from Vendors.. normally to people that need a break from the "real" world.. the stories they tell when they come back from the games is worth more than attending the game myself. None of them had ever been to a game.. and everyone of them say there is nothing like it.

One spry gent thought he had a pace maker installed jokingly.. he said that the atmosphere, excitement and intensity of the crowd could jump start a heart if need be. :lol:

Odd thing though this year.. I haven't gotten a single ticket.. dang gum economy anyway. 😉

that's GREAT 93! i'm a firm believer that EVERY packer fan HAS to go to at least one game at lambeau field - period!! there is truly nothing like walking thru the "tunnel", seeing the sunshine ahead of you, your heart pounding so hard, your face finally hit by the sunlight, & looking onto the field - truly an amazing experience!!

No big deal AK. I bet half of the people on this board have wither not gone or been to 1 game.
Hard ticket to get unless you go thru the ticket brokers and pay big bucks.
I bought a few tickets off a neighbor when I was in college that he did not want to use. Went to a couple of games at old County Stadium in Milwaukee. (Loved to walk in from one of the neighborhoods along the railroad tracks. Went past the retirement home on the way.)
But I didn't get season tickets until a few years ago because of the remodeling project.
I had been a fan for about 35-40 yrs by then so you still have time to pay off your loans.

I love giving away my tickets.
Sent my son and both of his grandfathers to games. (different games)
Sent my brother and his sons.
Have a good friend who moved from WI to IL and gave them the tickets.
Took my uncle who is a long time Packer fan after he had a kidney transplant.
I definitely get a kick out of watching others look around the stadium.
My favorite part are the flyovers at the end of the National Anthem. :signcool:

There is something about seeing a person react to the first glimpse of the field.. til the day I croak.. I will remember my son's first trip or a 75 year old I took to his very first professional game.. he was in awe..

Albeit I got to see none of the reactions first hand.. I hear the stories the next time we met. Priceless.
