Fly in to Appleton. 20 minute drive.

I wish I could go. But I couldn't even
afford the gas to get to Green Bay.

It's tempting to go, but I'm just beginning to feel better after fighting off an irritating cough. I don't want to get sick again. Do I want to risk it? 🤔

I would be going no question about it if I didn't have the girls this weekend. I'd buy two tickets and then force a friend or cousin or uncle or my dad to go with me lol.

If my girls had ever been to a game before, I would bring them, but being 10 and 12 years old and their first game being single digit temperatures would surely sour them on the Packers. We don't want that.

Yea 1200 round trip from florida as well. Damn was hoping this might be my chance to sporadically get up there! My girlfriend gave me her blessing to search for flights if they were in the 3-500 range. Definitely not :/ Can't believe they're so high!

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Sellout criteria has been met. The game will NOT be blacked out. Not that anyone thought it would.

I think this lack of sell out by the fans really goes to what was said in the division championship thread about us fans being spoiled with success. I think 15 years ago this game sells out within an hour. Being the 5th consecutive year of the Packers in the playoffs, fans have been spoiled.

(3rd largest stadium vs 3rd smallest 80,000 seats in GB vs 62,000 in Chicago. population 300,000 metro vs 9.5 million. How Chicago would never try to sell out 80,000 seats for every regular season game. That it is easy to claim that it would never happen to the Bears when they are done for the season. And finally that Packer fans didn't expect both the Bears and Lions to fail so big the last half the year. yada yada yada.) He had no reply. [grin1]

While I was putting this montage together I was thinking the same thing. It wouldn't have happened if they didn't have so much success in the past.

My only issue with buying tickets and going is, if I go, I will forced to take my Wife. And who wants to sit next to a 49er fan in Lambeau.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!
