plus a Giants' hail mary touchdown and a 65 yard TD run-after-catch sprung by a weak no-wrap hit by Peprah. Those 14 points plus the fumbles were the game.


I was at that game and it was probably my worst experience as a fan.

I may actually have a worse one believe it or not:
My first ever game at Lambeau was the first round playoff game against the Vikings where we lost handily on the back of Bert's 4 or 5 interceptions. Better remembered as the Randy Moss moon game. Froze my a*s off to see my hero absolutely just take a dump on the field and use my face as toilet paper...

My first game was a game against Cincy when a no name QB (Bart Favor, I think) replaced Majik after he got hurt and we won on a last second TD to Kitrick Taylor.

Man that day sucked.

My worst would be freezing my ass off to watch Favre's last pass as a Packer go to Corey Webster.

I've never been to a Packers game, so take that.

That would require going out in a public place so not surprising.

Not cool, man. Not cool. Going to football games doesn't really appeal to me anyways, so I don't care. Been on a tour of Lambeau, that's good enough.

I've done tours at Lambeau. It's a good experience. But it doesn't replace sitting in the bowl and watching a game. I did that for the first time last year, and it felt like almost a religious experience.

Sure, whatever. It's a football stadium, bfd.

Alright. I'm not judging you for not going. I didn't go until someone hooked me up with tickets last year. I just wanted to share my perspective as to why going to a game is different - and better - than touring it. That's especially true with Lambeau, where the bowl seating and environment felt different than any other sports stadium I've seen.

I'm with you. Last year was my first and only game in the bowl and it was incredible.

I was at this game and the Vikings wildcard game. The Giants game was MUCH WORSE.

That close to witnessing your team on their way to the Superbowl. Had a chance to go to the Packers/Giants second playoff game. Decided against it because I still remembered the pain from the NFC title game.

You're telling me - and I dropped 1200 bucks for two game tickets, 500 something for my flight, and 200 something for the cold weather gear. All to get teased with a SB appearance, and watching it get snatched away by Eli Manning.
