The Frozen Tundra
Football's best stadium. Home of 12, yes count 'em 12 championshiops! More than any other team in the NFL. Yes, I've said it and its true. I've only been to Lambeau 4 times in my life, twice this past year and have loved it every time. Just knowing the history of the place and how many Hall of Famers (and future HOF'ers) have played there gives me goose bumps. The stadium stands alone. The city is small (just over 100,000) and you can see Lambeau from miles away. Fans tough it out hours beforehand to tailgate. This last weekend, we were at a tailgate w/a smoker and had ribs and pulled pork sandwiches in 20 degree weather. People don't mess around in that weather. I saw tons of blaze orange, camouflage, carhartt, north face and lots of cold weather gear. Its completely acceptable to bring in blankets to sign on the cold metal bleachers. Once inside the stadium, theres a beautiful Atrium and the Packers Hall of Fame which I still have yet to see. Its Green and Gold inside and has a capacity of over 70,000 rabid packers fans! Prior to both games this season, they had an air force flyover that gets the blood pumping. And when you win, you go back outside to tailgate more, regardless of the weather because your beloved Packers have just won at the Mecca. Every NFL fan should come see Lambeau Field.
