While other precincts are fretting over the possible blackout of a home playoff game, the Packers vowed Tuesday that they’d be on local television Sunday. As recently as last night, they were telling folks they had 15,000 seats left, and had only knocked around 2,000 off that today. According to Don Walker of the Milwaukee...

My dilemma is I think my nephew has basketball games on Sunday. I've always tried to support him and I've missed several regular season games to watch him play but this is the playoffs. Maybe he will play early for once. I guess there is always DVR

I'd go, but I'm not about to sit outside in this cold weather.

If I had the money and vacation time, I would gladly buy a ticket.

Surprised they're having trouble moving tickets.

I supported them during the season. It is time for those on the waiting list to pony up. Where are all the people who say that the Packers should quadruple the season ticket prices to cull some of the current season ticket holders out?

Talk is cheap.

The playoff tickets are not.

I also supported them during the season, once (for the Vikings tie).

Living 9 hours away and working the day before means I can't help them now though.

But living in CA plus buying a few tickets just isn't an option for me right now (well it could be, but it's not going to be). More important things for me to spend my money and time on. It's too bad, too, because I would love to go. I also have some family in North Carolina that is buying tickets to the first Panther playoff game next week. If the Packers win, it's likely they would play the Panthers, which would basically mean a free Packers playoff game for me. Damn moving across the county! heh heh.

Now if the Packers were playing the 49'ers in CA, I would strongly consider going, as that's an easy drive and not a $500/ticket plane ride.

10 hours round trip for me isn't the killer. A 101 temp and bad cough could be.

Dodd I believe they have a separate list for the Green and Gold packages. Living so far away you might prefer the Gold package. It is a little easier to get to two games than 6.
