Packers/Lions Game...what a Blast (dialup warning!)
As a lifelong Packers fan, I have never had seats this good in my life. A good mix of Packers fans and Lions fans...and everyone was really getting along. It was a fun time...two teams battling for the basement. It makes me sad, but I think the Packers are going to have a great season from here on out!

The Scoreboard:


Brett!


A true "tight end" and a couple of wide receivers ( I love Bubba!)



MrG and BabyG cheering for the enemy!



We had a really good time, thanks to PoppyG!

2. you should attend more games, Mrs.G
you brought the Packers good luck! It was fun game. :woohoo: I looked for you but unfortunately, there weren't too many close ups of the crowd.

I am seeing you now though, and all i can say is: what a lovely family you have! :hi: :hug:

8. I'm trying to raise her right...
MrG got to BabyG before I could do anything about it.


We were laughing because I had my "4" jersey on and so did WannaBe, and about 12,000 other people. I said to WannaBe,"We have been assimilated into the Borg..." :hi:

17. BabyG... He'll always be my baby!
:D

It was a great time. I could not believe how close we were. My dad bought the tickets for us for taking care of him post surgery and for helping him through this tough time in his life. He knew I'd probably never get that close again and he got the tickets for cheaper than they are normally. They were still too expensive IMO. :hug:

22. I've only had the "good seats" once myself
Me and Mrs. DTW had Jaguars season tickets for three years in some pretty good seats but an ex employer of mine had the very expensive club seats right on the 50, and gave us his tickets one time for a game he and his wife couldn't make it to.

It make it hard for us to go back to our regular seats after that.

24. It really was. And it made for fun family rivalry.
MrG is a Lions fan and BabyG is sadly following in his footsteps...no matter how hard I try. But, at least I've got my girl! :hi:

27. Great pictures!!
If I had known you would be at the game, I would have waved at you :) You are right about the fans, it was a nice mix and I am glad that the Packers won. I was born and raised in Milwaukee as well and will always be a Packer fan no matter where we live...

I wasn't there, but I watched it on TV.

I couldn't help but notice your pictures of the Pack are all fanny shots... :evilgrin:

And the ViQueens losing yesterday too, made my day!
