For the second consecutive season, Lambeau Field finished first in Sports Illustrated's NFL stadium rankings.

In September the magazine asked readers to complete a 19-question online survey ranking their hometown stadium and broke down the answers in the categories of affordability and food, tailgating, team quality, atmosphere and accessibility.

Lambeau was the only stadium in the league to finish in the Top 5 in each of those areas, including first-place finishes in both affordability and food and atmosphere. The five categories were weighed equally.

Lambeau Field was ranked second in the NFL in tailgating behind Ralph Wilson Stadium in Buffalo.

Sports Illustrated had more than 12,000 people fill out the survey, and a third of those submitted came from season-ticket holders. The average number of games attended by all respondents was 3.23 per season.

Lambeau field is amazing. Ought to go there once.

Looks like they didn't even add in 'History' or 'Culture' or anything. That would pretty much make the field a sure 1st.

Instead of "Head To Head" or "Conference/Divisional Record." the NFL should just use these rankings to break any ties at the end of the regular season. : )

What is sad.. is some people never make it there.. and that is just plain wrong.

Like a game at Wrigley Field.. a place a person should attend if they are a sports fan.

But Lambeau is better.. it is minus a sucky Chicago team. :lol:

Lambeau Field is great even if there is not a game going on.

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.

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.

Its always the most fun when there is a game, but its great even without a game. I make it there as much as possibile. I just go there, and wander around and hang out. Doing nothing, except looking...and enjoying.

earthquake (57m) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (3h) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (6h) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (7h) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde
dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab
dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it
TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score
