Good Morning Fans,
Sorry for the slow update on the game day experience. It took a little while to come down from cloud 9! What a win. What an experience.
Lambeau Field is everything that you've ever heard. The stadium and the experience is a one of a kind. We got to the park 3 hours early and walked from one of the neighborhoods where you could pay to park on someones lawn for $10-$50/car. The cost was more if that home let you use their bathroom or tailgate in their yard. We walked the parking lot and had some great football discussions with Niner and Packer fans.
It is so cliche, but once you walk through that dark tunnel to the well lit field it takes your breath away. The Packers had put either a green or gold shirt on every seat (seat is used loosely because every seat is a bleacher seat), so it was cool to look around and see each section of the stadium as a green or gold section. Getting in there early enough we got to watch the Niners warm up. Harbaugh made an appearance.
We grabbed a beer and a foot long brat, that was easily the best brat I've ever had and went to our seats. Boyz II Men smashed the national anthem and the jets brought tears to some eyes. One thing to point out is the ovation Donald Driver got during player introductions. It was HUGE, to say the least. This non-Packer fan got goose bumps from the love they showed this guy.
To cap off an incredible trip, We won! Sorry, we dominated this great team top to bottom. When we play them again it wont be this easy. I highly encourage everyone to go to Green Bay for a game, whether or not you're seeing your favorite team, it is a must.
Who's got it better then us???!!!
NOOOOOO-BODY!
