I am only thinking of your well being here. It is important, kind of like me owning a Lamborghini Diablo SV before I die. Probably will not happen, however, much like your dream that the Brewers fans are supersede the Packers fans, it simply isn't true nor will come to fruition, EVER, EVER, EVER!!!

Say it with me now ... gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooos-fraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa






Sorry, I just can't take this Brewer Fan vs Packer Fan pathetically ignorant stupid ass argument seriously.

i think there are a ton of baseball fans n this state that have not had a lot to cheer about for some time...

Ticket sales and viewership on Fox Sports have proven that Brewer mania has been here a while.. correct?

Like this seasons attendance is on pace with the past couple in which we have drawn well.

And even then... you don't have large numbers people planning their days around the Brewer games.. like you do with Packer games.

But there lies the rub.. it is impossible to make the comparison because they are different sports with different demographics.

I personally think it is pissing into the wind to try and judge which is greater beyond opinion.. Packers following or the Brewers.


All I know is this.. the Packers continued to sellout through the lean decades of the 70's and 80's... the Brewers attendance dropped off in the lean years from the mid 80's through mid 2000's...

Where the Packers benefit from the sport being "wisely" setup where all teams have more of an equal opportunity to the Brewers competing in a sport without that assistance of equality.. and it has hurt them.. along with some poor management prior to Melvin and Mark buying the team.

That is were Bud has failed us as an owner, failing to spend and put proper management in place to compete and as a commissioner.. he hasn't leveled the competitive playing field.

I am soaking in this season for the Brewers.. because all said and done.. they are playing good baseball right now.

might as well move this one 2 the back alley also!

1. I am not wrong, there are more baseball fans than football fans in WI.

2. The Packers did not sell out through he entire 70's & 80's. I went to plenty of games during that time frame where there were plenty of open seats, especially in County Stadium in November and December.

Those are the facts, like it or not!

BTW, a sell out doesn't mean full stadium, it means that every ticket was sold.

Really not trying to argue.. just illustrating my point and why I noted it (although I didn't know it began in 1960). There is a difference between selling a ticket and said seat being filled on game day.. even today.. you can find an empty seat in a sellout.

County Stadium and the mess surrounding the Season Packages withstanding.. that said.. County Stadium was a unique place to catch a football game.. tickets with views of mostly stadium posts included at no extra cost. Much like the Metrodome.. only difference that is 20 years removed.. Metrodome still has said issues. [grin1]




Steelers, Packers no strangers to sellout streaks, waiting lists
Saturday, February 05, 2011
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Tickets for the game Sunday are tough to come by. And those that can be come by were selling for an average of $4,683 as of Wednesday.

That should come as no surprise to any faithful follower of the Steelers or Packers. After all, tickets for regular-season games for years have been harder to find than a Pirates fan willing to predict a winning season.

The Packers have sold out every home game at Lambeau Field since 1960.

The Steelers have sold out every home game at Three Rivers Stadium and now Heinz Field since November 1972.

The only numbers that trump the Packers' streak are those associated with the waiting list of those wanting to add to it.

Gary D'Amato of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Sunday that the list numbers approximately 86,000 names. About 90 tickets turn over each offseason. At that rate, No. 86,000 on the list can expect to have his own seats at Lambeau Field XXX just in time for the 2966 season.

Because of the wait, including place numbers in wills and signing up newborns have become common practices.

The Steelers also have a waiting list, though it hasn't quite become as mythologized as that of the Packers. In 2007, Forbes magazine reported it to be at about 40,000 fans long. Other reports peg it as high as 88,000.

No matter what, fans on the list shouldn't stock up on tailgating staples anytime soon.
