Packers ask for fan input on expanding Lambeau Field 

by Michael David Smith

The Green Bay Packers have 81,000 people on their season-ticket waiting list, and Lambeau Field has a maximum capacity of 72,928. So even if all the season-ticket holders were to give up their seats, there still wouldn't be enough room for everyone who would want to take their places.

With that in mind, it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to add some seats to Lambeau Field -- something the Packers are reportedly considering.

The Associated Press reports that the Packers will hold focus groups in Milwaukee and Green Bay to discuss expanding Lambeau Field. The Packers sent an invitation to certain fans asking them to share "thoughts and opinions on possible new seating opportunities at an expanded Lambeau Field."

That doesn't necessarily mean an expansion is going to happen any time soon, however, as a Packers spokesman said no plans to make changes to Lambeau Field are imminent.

Lambeau's most recent expansion was completed in 2003.

With the struggling economy, and the pending lockout, I think this is the last thing we need to worry about.

More seating = more fans = more money into the franchise, i like the idea. And if it's being brought up that atleast tells us were not in total recession freakout mode anymore.
We are born naked, wet and hungry. Then things get worse.

If they do upgrade does that mean they will be selling more shares? I would love to become a shareholder!

IMO, I like that dallas thing where you pay to stand during the game. Lets thoes fans who can't pay the big bucks get in not to mention it would make the atmosphere feel a bit more old school.

As a season ticket-holder I will go on record as saying I like the idea.
Let's get 100,000 people in there.

What's the population of Green Bay these days? I think the stadium capacity should match the cities population. Each year they can add a few more seats to keep up with population growth 🙂

The population of Green Bay as of 2008 was estimated to be 101,025, down from the 2000 of 102,313. Either number would make for one ginormous stadium.

Zero2Cool (8h) : And for Ian Rapoport to announce Saints send 1st and 2nd rounder to Packers for Malik Willis.
dfosterf (9h) : *Elgersma*
dfosterf (9h) : Today would be a good day to discover the Pack signed Taylor Engersma, the Canadian QB
Zero2Cool (11-May) : It wasn't. He simply wanted his money back. They refused. Cops came. They gave him his money in end.
dfosterf (11-May) : Fortunately it doesn't sound like a big deal
Zero2Cool (10-May) : Elgton Jenkins Involved In Strip Club Dispute ... Cops Called To Mitigate
Zero2Cool (10-May) : Derek Carr retires. Shoulder must be bad.

Martha Careful (9-May) : Favored Illinois Bishop?
beast (9-May) : Technically, the I in FIB stands for Italian now, Si?
dfosterf (8-May) : I never thought I'd live long enough to call a pope a FIB, but here we are
Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback
wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:
Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO
dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.
dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning
Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?
beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.
beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.
dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition
Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.
beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.
packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?
packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.
dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans
