Wow I had no idea going to away games were like this ...

hate to ask but are packers fans this roudy also against bears and viks fans?

I can understand if the trash talking gets carried away but the examples you guys are giving examples that seem like its just 'fans' looking to cause trouble.

I live in england and it sounds like the rivalries that their football clubs have at games where fans often get into fights at the standiums because they are a bunch of drunks/crazy/who knows what peeps.

I went to the NFC title game in Dallas in i believe 1995.
I gave the Cowboys fans some crap before the game, but did it in fun, and they in turn treated me the same.
One group had some Packer pictures and pennants on the ground for Cowboy fans to step on, and i got down and pretended to kiss the pennants.
That got a howl out of them, and it was all cool.

I think alot of it has to do with how you react in "hostile" teritory.

If you come across too strong, trouble will find you.
But i haven't been to a game at Miin or Chicago, so i don't really know what it's like there.

It's hit or miss I think. I've been to a game in both stadiums and nothing ever happened. Hell, when I was in Chicago looking for 2 tickets to buy from a scalper, a guy and his daughter (who were Bears fans) gave us two tickets for free.

There are assholes at every venue that wouldn't say "boo" to you if they were alone outside of the comforts of heir home stadium, fellow fans, friends and peers. Most have had too much to drink and you just need to know how to deal with them properly as to avoid any serious trouble.

Usually they are in a group, which gives these COWARDS (also with the aid of alcohol) "instant courage".
By themselves, they would remain the cowards they really are.

My wife and I went to Lambeau this past season when Green Bay played the Bears and had a great time. I didn't notice really anything terribly bad done to Bears fans. Mostly just ribbing here and there, almost like two brothers making fun of each other.

Of course, there were a few obnoxious drunks, but they were the exception and not the rule.

I've also been to Lambeau when the Lions came to town, but I think there was more pity amongst the Lambeau faithful towards Lions fans.

You will probably be much better off if you don't drink and avoid those who are. Seriously.

I've been tot he dome twice, but it was in the late 1990's, they weren't filling the stadium with season ticket holders so there were a lot more Packer fans. I had no confrontations nor saw any but I was sober which helps a lot for avoiding trouble.

Been to one game in each venue... Minnesota wasn't bad at all.. mostly just fun jesting back and forth.

But Chi-town wasn't much fun.. there is a reason some have earned the moniker "FIB"... because it fits. I don't think I personally would entertain the idea of going there again.. I am not the fighting type, but I wanted to fight.. lol.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
