The Froooozen Tundra ....

... ok, well maybe not frozen in the middle of October, but that is what you think when you hear Lambeau Field.

This past weekend, after a couple of years of talking about it, our family went to everyone's first (except Dad) Packers game at Lambeau field. When we were discussing which game to go to there was only a couple of choices due to my brother's work schedule and then after we found out we were expecting we decided that a November or December game might not be a great idea either. So, we got tickets to the Packers vs Colts game October 19th at 3:15PM.

We decided to make a day of it. The whole family (8 of us) left Cedarburg at 9:00AM so that we could go to the Packer's Hall of Fame and get some lunch before the game. Really interesting to see how a team got started in nowhere Green Bay. We also got to see the three Super Bowl trophies.

We ate at Curly's (Lambeau) Pub inside the stadium. Excellent food, I had a heart attack on a plate which was excellent. 1/2 lb hamburger, saurkraut, and a smoked sausage on top. Oh... and deep fried cheese curds as an appetizer.

Then the game. Our seats were awesome, 45 yard line maybe 50 feet from the sideline. I was surprised by the number of Colts fans at the game (not that I can blame them for wanting to come to a game at Lambeau) but they were quickly drowned out by a very loud home crowd, that only got louder after the first interception return for a touchdown, but went absolutely crazy after the second 99 yd return for TD.

All in all, I really don't think that we could have a better first experience at Lambeau.

It was a very long day for this pregnant girl, but totally worth it!! I really enjoyed the Hall of Fame. With being a Packer fan for only about 6 years, it was great to see where the team got thier start. Seeing the Super Bowl Trophies and rings was pretty cool. Hopefully we'll add another in the next 10 years : ) It was a great game and a great day spent with family at the infamous Frozen Tundra, and the fact that the Pack beat the Colts.....PRICELESS!!
