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.

packerfanoutwest (6h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites

Zero2Cool (14h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

packerfanoutwest (22-Nov) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break
