If you're from the Midwest, more specifically from WI, I agree with you. I lived off Deckner Ave near UWGB for about 6 months, and aside from having crappy fishing opportunities if you didn't own a boat, it was a pleasant place to be with a lot of things to do that Wisconsinites could enjoy.

If you're from a big city, or a place where ice fishing isn't held in high esteem, then I can see why Green Bay is basically a few streets and an Applebees.

Yeah.. if you are looking for the clubbin' life.. agreed Green Bay is not a contender, albeit Main Street and the couple blocks south of the mall when I went to college there wasn't horrible.

But if you think clubbin' is overrated it isn't terrible. Tons of outdoor activities, sporting events and what not.. you can slide down to Milwaukee or Chi town for a weekend of pro sports or what not.

Personally I loved my time in Green Bay.. I went back again after college.. there is plenty to do. And I have lived in some bigger cities in America at times to compare it to.

It lacks pro sports draws and top notch clubs.. other than that.. it provides a wide range of interests. Maybe not the breadth of choice in a bigger city, but offers them just the same.

Now if you talk weather.. yeah.. it is hamstrung for 5 to 6 months a year.

I gotta stop replying, too ticked off to be rational lol

That stupid ass Ryan Longwell .... ugh!!!

From Phoenix, Corpus Cristi, Biloxi, LA, and Columbia, SC. With the Weidner Center and the Arena.. you can get some fine art selections and concerts. Dining wise.. there are a number of choices around the city.. if you want to hunt or fish.. you can be in heaven within an hour.

The selections are not as vast no doubt.. but it is hardly a couple of streets and a Applebees.

And the weather.. the summer months in the south when it gets so blasted hot.. it limits your options that lack AC.

Las Vegas didn't offer me what I wanted from a city. Green Bay would offer me what I was looking for. Everyone is different. You will find those athletes that love Green Bay, like a Jordy, because that is what he's looking for. A Greg Jennings didn't like it because, I can only assume, he wanted to live in a more diverse place and I can't fault him..

There are few places that has the decked stacked against it like Green Bay does.
