We were part of History last Night.
THE FIRST MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL GAME EVER PLAYED AT LAMBEAU IN THE MONTH OF DECEMBER!
Game Time Temp: 24 degrees
(I'll apologize for the obscene number of photos now, and then you'll just have to get over it...I LOVE MY GREEN BAY PACKERS!)
the tickets
the tailgaiting
(Brats & Kraut, of course)
just so happens we ran into my brother...what are the odds?
we knew he was going to be there, but we couldn't even find people we were trying to find
we got so anxious we headed into the stadium early.
(here's the gate..I told you I was photo happy)
Finally inside.
Wondering how you stay warm for 5 hours when it's FREEZING outside?
Come dressed as a Marshmallow.
No those aren't actual Football pads...
that's long-johns, a T-shirt, a Sweatshirt, Jeans, Snowpants, a Heavy Winter jacket, 2 pairs heavy socks, Boots, a Scarf, a pair of gloves, a pair of wool mittens,a hat, and a Greg Jennings jersey.
Oh, and some foot and hand warmers...and that was just what I was wearing!
If you want to know how Randy kept warm, I believe his quote was:
"If you get cold, just fart in your snowpants."
Nice.
And then there's these guys:
Interesting side note: "SP" guy said his mom told him he should have worn tassles.
Gotta LOVE Wisconsin!
We got in there early because although I've been to Lambeau Field twice before, I have never been down by the field to watch the guys warm up...and I got CRAZY AWESOME PICS, so I tried to pic some of my favs as to not bore you more than you already are.
Aaron Rodgers...
A.J. HAWK
And DOUBLE D! Donald Driver!
My Man, Greg Jennings!
COLOR ME HAPPY!
Almost Game Time....the Singing of the National Anthem
ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?!?!?
WELCOME TO THE G-FORCE
PASSING...
and RUNNING...
and CATCHING...
OH MY!
(here's the close up of that last shot...Rodgers to Finnley, the Packer's 1st TD of the Night! Pretty sweet capture, huh?)
Oh, IT WAS AN AWESOME GAME!
We had so much fun!
We met tons of hilarious fans...REALLY NICE fans!
Even the Baltimore Fans that flew in for the game were AWESOME!
We stayed plenty warm, drank a few beers, and left victorious!
I LOVE MY HUBBY! We kept saying just how much fun we were having and how amazing it is that we both love Football & the Packers this much....
FOR US...a PERFECT DATE!
