Lambeau Field Experience

As 2012 comes to an end, I could do a post and reflect on the last year...but that would take lots of time going through pictures and deciding something from each month of 2011 to blog about...well I don't want to do all that hard work. I'll do it next year :)

On Christmas Day, Tate and I went to Lambeau Field to watch the Packers take on the Bears. Tate's best friend had 2 extra tickets and was wondering if we wanted to buy them. I wasn't sure about going, but the last time I had gone (3+ years ago), I had a bit too much to drink and didn't take full advantage of what a great experience it could be. Everyone talks about this place, even if they dislike the Packers. Both teams that were playing on Christmas, I strongly dislike, but I decided it would be fun to go and to see what it's actually like.

I was so happy that we decided to go. It was so much fun...even though I am not a fan of the Packers. I was actually seated next to a Vikings fan so it make it 10x better!

Tailgating...and the guy taking the picture must have been intoxicated because the picture is blurry!



After tailgating by our vehicle for a bit, we decided to venture off to other tailgating areas and find some of Ed's (Tate's best friend) friends. It took us a while to find them, but we finally did among the 70,000+ in attendance.

After tailgating for a good hour, we ran into some of our really good friends that live in MN and had no idea they were going to be there. It seriously made this experience so much better...I was so elated and screaming and jumping up and down to see them. We ran into them among thousand and thousands of people, so I thought it was crazy that we actually ran into them.

My good friend, Natalie and her sister-in-law Jennifer...love them!!!

I loved going to the game and doing something with Tate that he loves so much. He was on cloud 9 the whole time...I mean he was spending time with his wife and best friend while watching his all time fav team, how could get it any better (well it would if I became a Packer fan, but I am sorry...that is not going to happen)!!!!

I have now officially experienced Lambeau Field...once for a Vikings vs Packers game where I lived it up (a little too much) and once as a supporter for my husband and just had a good time!!!

See you in 2012 :)
