Lambeau Field is Overrated

Ive been to several games at Lambeau throughout the years.

My last was 5 years ago. I witnessed a guy get ejected from the game, for.....standing. I'm not kidding. One of Green Bay's finest ejected 2 guys because they refused to sit. If you attend an NFL game, and you whine to the ushers that the guy in front of you is standing, please kill yourself.Seriously. Do every one a favor.

I've been to several NFL stadiums. Every single one of them has the "Hey douchebag in front, sit down I can't see", guy. Not sure when this all started, but it ended for me 5 years ago. Last game I attended and will never attend another NFL game. Ever.

I doubt they were ejected after the first complaint and the complaint was probably not lodged until after they were asked to sit down. If you are going to go to the game and stand the entire time and block the game from the fans behind you please kill yourself. Seriously. Do everyone a favor.

I'm sure there are other fans who are glad you won't be going to any more games but I'm sure the Packers will be devastated to learn you won't be attending any more.

My "bucket list" includes attending a Packers game at Lambeau Field. I do not realistically believe that I will ever experience the thrill. Virginia is a long haul from Green Bay and I'm retired on a fixed income.

When I read someone complain that they have attended 1 or more games at Lambeau , then have the temerity to bitch because of their poor social skills, it truly saddens my heart.
As a guest at the home of a neighbor should be on their best behavior, so should be the their behavior at a sporting event, concert, museum, or church/temple. Even here in this forum good behavior is expected. IMO, bad social behavior lessens the experience of those also attending the same activity.

I've personally seen bad behavior at public events and it usually ends with an ejection and hearing those in the general area say things like."I'm glad they kicked that asshole out". No one wants to pay for a ticket to an event and then have it mared by a display from a selfish unmanored jackass.

I have been to close to 50 games. Lambeau and old County Stadium. Very few fans have been ejected from the game anywhere near my area. Fans generally know how to behave. There is no point to standing for the whole game unless it's the Army-Navy game. If it's 2nd and 8 from the 40 what's the point? If it is first and goal from the 2 yeah stand up. Standing blocks the view of 4-5 people. Why have so little consideration for others? The guy behind you may be taking his son or daughter to their first game. It's hard enough for kids to follow the action why make it more difficult?

I had the girls with during the last game I was at and they are vertically challenged so watching the field was difficult as it was. So, when the drunk guys in front of us were standing, they couldn't see a damn thing. I didn't have to say anything because these guys were cool, they kept looking back and moving to the side to make sure the girls could see the field.

Standing up the entire time for no reason and blocking others view is inconsiderate and selfish. Guess it's just how I was raised, to be respectful of others.

The old style pointy end kind used before pop tops. Now I'm mad. I told him he better have a very good plan for that can opener or I better not see it again and fortunately I didn't see it again.

It's simple. SIT DOWN when everyone else is sitting and stand when everyone stands. I don't pay all the money it costs for these weekends to see the ass end of the guy in front of me and shouldn't be forced to make it miserable for the people behind me just to see the darn game.

I highly doubt he was ejected simply for standing. It more than likely was just one piece of the total puzzle. More than like was a drunk dillweed also.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!
