I've been watching the Packers site to see if they were going to have it again. I wouldn't have been able to go anyway, but wanted to keep up dated.
They didn't have it last year, and said they would this year. But now it's been scrapped, and i have a feeling they won't be doing it ever again. They didn't say so, but it sure sounds that way.
That's sad too, as it was a way for fans to get close to players from the past and present that you couldn't really get any other way. I know i sure enjoyed it the 6 years i went.
I just figured i'd post about it, in case anuy other people out there were wondering about it.

Are Family Night and Fan Fest the same thing? I think the Family Night game keeps getting cancelled due to weather, so maybe they figured instead of upsetting fans in August, they'll upset them now.

Even though I never went it sounded like a neat thing for the fans and players. Will be sorry to see it discontinued, if that's what happens. I would have been interested to go one of these years. They sold out rather quickly if I remember correctly.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Zero, Fan Fest was at the Atrium in March. Family night is the scrimmage in August.
The first Fan Fest sold out REALLY quick, tying up the phone lines at the GB ticket office. The only reason i got to go was that i drove up to GB to get the ticket in person, as i didn't have a charge card.
The first one was kind of a nightmare, as they had never done anything like that, and there were some much needed improvements. They did make improvements, and although far from perfect, was still alot of fun.
I got Aaron Rodgers autograph at Fan Fest when he was just the backup QB. At the time i didn't know what he was going to do in the NFL. Now of course, i'm VERY glad i got it then, as now it's almost impossible to get his signature.
Plus I got to meet "Trippster" at the 1st Fan Fest, and we "partied all night!"

dfosterf (15h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊
dfosterf (15h) : I accept Beast's admonishment regarding my failure to link stuff I reference. I simply never learned to link from my cell phone.
beast (15h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down
Zero2Cool (20h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"
Zero2Cool (21h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol
Mucky Tundra (21h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him
dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback
Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.
dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done
