Daniel from Huntersville, NC<\/strong>
I have been blessed to have been at a couple of memorable ones. In Denver, at Mile Excessive on the Brett Favre-to-Greg Jennings time beyond regulation winner; AT&T Stadium for the epic Matt Flynn comeback sport (later within the day I proposed to my spouse \u2013 a Cowboys fan, fortunately, she nonetheless mentioned sure); and eventually, Lambeau Area in 2023 in Christian Watson’s three-TD popping out occasion in opposition to the Cowboys.
Joshua from Houston, TX<\/strong>
As a Texan, I’ve solely been to 2 video games, each in Texas. In highschool, I noticed Favre lead a game-winning FG drive in opposition to the Texans to win 16-13 in 2004. I additionally went to the notorious comeback sport by Flynn as a one-year anniversary present from my spouse in 2013. It was a tough first half, however now my in-laws (Cowboys followers) say that she is not allowed to wish in opposition to the Cowboys after that comeback.
Caleb from Bloomington, IN<\/strong>
I’ve solely been to 2 video games, however they had been unimaginable. The primary was the opener in opposition to the Bears in 2018. You might really feel the air exit of the stadium when Rodgers went down, nevertheless it was electrical when he got here strolling again out after halftime! The sensation when Randall Cobb caught that cross and turned up area was unforgettable! The second was the loopy time beyond regulation sport in Cincinnati in 2021 with my future spouse! Listening to every fan base maintain its breath and cheer on the opponent’s missed FG was peak soccer drama. (Editor’s notice:<\/strong> Man, there’s loads of love at these Packers video games.)<\/em>
Mike from Palm Coast, FL<\/strong>
I noticed my first Packers sport at County Stadium in Milwaukee. Many extra at Lambeau. After transferring to Texas, I noticed fairly a couple of at Texas Stadium vs. the Cowboys. Sadly, the Cowboys had been in the midst of their Tremendous Bowl run. I’ve since moved to Florida and have seen the Pack play in all three Florida stadiums with successful outcomes. Finest second was Favre to Sterling Sharpe for a TD.
Sam from Greendale, WI<\/strong>
My solely non-Lambeau sport was at TCF Financial institution when the Vikings had been ready on their new stadium. The Packers beat the Vikings 24-21 and we chanted “GO PACK GO!” all the way in which out of the stadium, a lot to the chagrin of the locals.
Matt from Bloomington, IN<\/strong>
I attended the freezing 26-26 tie at Lambeau Area in 2013 in opposition to the Vikings. I ponder what proportion of followers have seen a tie sport in particular person.
Ken from Mountain Iron, MN<\/strong>
I attended my first Packers sport in Nov. 1952 vs. NY Giants on the Polo Grounds. After all, the Pack received and gained a lifetime fan. Fortunately that terrible stadium was torn down in ’64.
Brian from Twain Harte, CA<\/strong>
(1) 1968 at Kezar Stadium in Golden Gate Park; a GB loss. In 1997, I noticed Pack play a preseason sport on the Oakland Coliseum, a win. I stayed on the Berkeley Marriott and was on the identical flooring because the Packers. I talked with quite a few gamers the night time earlier than the sport, together with Favre and Mark Chmura. (3) In January 1999, I noticed the 49ers beat GB within the playoffs at Candlestick. (4) I noticed GB beat the Pats in time beyond regulation at Lambeau in 2022.

I went to the Metrodome to see the Packers play the Vikings. Reggie White and Sean Jones collided within the backfield and took one another out of the sport. Brett Favre broke his ankle. Ty Detmer broke his thumb on his throwing hand. T.J. Rubley audibled to a cross, and it was intercepted to seal a Viking victory. All he wanted to do was QB sneak and kick the successful area purpose. He was minimize the subsequent day.
Patrick from Ashland, WI<\/strong>
I used to be at precisely two Packers video games within the Metrodome. First one, the Herschel Walker sport. He had simply been traded there and he trampled us, even on kickoffs, and we misplaced. The subsequent and fortunately final one was the Rubley sport. Favre obtained harm, Detmer obtained harm, and Rubley audibled in opposition to Holmgren’s needs and threw a decide, main to a different Packers loss. “Minnesota Good” does not apply to these followers after a Packers sport.
Blake from Eden Prairie, MN<\/strong>
U.S. Financial institution Stadium for the opener on Sept. 8, 2016. Ridiculous value for a nosebleed seat a half mile up within the clouds. It was probably the most depressing NFL sport expertise of my life, due to eight or 10 extremely inebriated male Vikings followers who stood up all through 95% of the whole sport, blocking our view of the sector, and sharing single finger salutes and colourful language. Our seats had been above the video boards, in order that they had been blocked from view, as nicely. I am sticking with Lambeau any further!
Dennis from Parrish, FL<\/strong>
My first NFL sport ever was on Dec. 18, 1983, in Chicago. Official temperature was 1-degree Fahrenheit, with a wind chill of minus-17. It was COLD! Twenty years later, on September 21, 2003, I attended the most popular Packers sport all time in Tempe, at 102! It was HOT! Now residing in Florida, I’ve seen them in ALL three stadiums! I additionally attended the final six video games the Packers performed in Milwaukee whereas residing within the Chicago suburbs.
Mike from Winchester, TN<\/strong>
I’ve solely seen them play dwell one time. On Nov. 29, 1999, my pal, who’s a 49ers fan, invited me to see the Packers vs. Niners at Candlestick Park. He wore his 49ers gear, and I wore my Packers gear. Favre and the Packers received 20-3. After the sport we walked previous a bunch of Niners followers tailgating within the lot. They began speaking smack to me which I replied: “I’ve Niner gear too, I am simply embarrassed to put on it.” All of them laughed and invited us to have a beer.
Eric from Omaha, NE<\/strong>
On Dec. 18, 2011, my household attended the Chiefs\/Packers sport at Arrowhead Stadium carrying our Packers apparel. The Packers had been undefeated, and the Chiefs had been 5-8 with an interim coach, Romeo Crennel. Sadly, the Chiefs shut down the Packers, 19-14. As we had been leaving our seats with a pair minutes left on the clock, a contented Chiefs fan spouted off, “Hey, the place you going?” I responded, “To the playoffs!” His smirk shortly modified to a frown as he nodded in settlement. Nice stadium.
Randy from McDonald (previously Ooltewah), TN<\/strong>
I’ve been to Packers video games at a number of NFL stadiums (along with 10 at Lambeau Area and two at County Stadium). I’ve seen them in Minnesota (L), Detroit (L), Charlotte (W), New Orleans (L), Baltimore (W), Atlanta (L), Cleveland (W), and Foxboro (L). Simply 3-5 on the street, however a 9-3 residence report places me at 12-8 when seeing them in particular person. Hoping so as to add a (W) in Nashville this 12 months.
Brandon from Billings, MT<\/strong>
On the Metrodome, Packers vs. Vikings, the 2013 win that Cordarrelle Patterson returned the opening kickoff for six. At Lambeau, the Packers vs. Falcons, the 2013 Flynn win. At U.S. Financial institution Stadium, the Packers vs. Vikings within the 2017 loss and the 2021 loss to the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium (Jordan Love’s first begin). There is a widespread theme right here: three out of 4 video games I attended to see Aaron Rodgers play resulted in two damaged collarbones and a case of COVID. I’ve determined it is for the perfect of the franchise if I simply watch on TV.
Edward from Canton, SD<\/strong>
Hello Wes! l have a “longest” that I feel few followers will bear in mind. Someday throughout Brett Favre’s prime the Pack performed at Denver on MNF. l consider it was within the fourth quarter, Denver had a 20-17 lead and punted and downed the ball on our 1-yard line. We drove down the sector, however had been stopped by Denver, and selected to kick the FG to tie the sport. The sport went to OT, the Packers received the toss and obtained. On the primary play, Favre discovered Jennings deep and TD! Recreation over! So, “Longest drive with out scoring landing, 98 yards.”
George<\/strong> from Edinburg, VA<\/strong>
My Jacksonville pal was excited for brand spanking new Jaguars tickets in 1995. I held an indication about lacking Sterling Sharpe. Favre and the Pack received. I noticed the identical consequence at RFK with T-bone and mates, on free tickets from our season-ticket holder bar proprietor. I sweated with my new spouse in opposition to the Lions at Lambeau when John Kuhn ran out the tip. Sadly, my son and I noticed our first loss within the rain at FedEx. I most loved assembly Vic, Mike, Wayne, Nick, and Mark at D.C
Jon from Hampshire, IL<\/strong>
Two away video games I’ve attended remind me how good we have now it now as GBP followers. The primary was vs. the Falcons at outdated Fulton County Stadium in 1988. Each groups had been 2-7 coming in, and the on-field motion was reflective. A 20-0 loss with seven turnovers by the great guys. My buddy and I obtained on TV within the fourth quarter as “unhappy guests.” The second was vs. Eagles on the Vet in 1990. Majik Man was injured and Anthony Dilweg and Blair Kiel had been no match for Randall Cunningham (or Reggie White). A 31-0 loss and Eagles trustworthy had no pity on us.
Bruce from Fort Myers, FL<\/strong>
The Packers sport I attended outdoors of Lambeau that actually blew my thoughts was the December 1997 sport in Tampa in opposition to the Bucs. Inexperienced Bay received 17-6 and clinched the division, however the coolest half was the 30,000 Packers followers that completely took over the sport. Trent Dilfer complained after the sport that the gang noise from the opposing followers actually bothered him. The Bucs modified their ticket coverage after the season to attempt to stop it from occurring once more!
Dan from Tallahassee, FL<\/strong>
Hello Wes, Lambeau. Within the Sixties, season tickets, row 1, within the children part. In contrast to Bob Uecker, I actually was within the entrance row. Wins, losses, possibly a tie. Lambeau. Dec 31, 1967, obtained type of chilly that day. Packers win. Soldier Area on Dec 10, 1978. Went with some school buddies. Packers loss. Georgia Dome. Oct 4, 1992. Introduced my dad and mom and sat in my employer’s suite on the 50-yard line. Seemed over and noticed a Falcons minority proprietor sitting in his suite on the 35-yard line. Felt type of particular. Packers loss. Raymond James. Sep 28, 2008. Sitting so excessive I used to be wanting down on the highest of the scoreboard. Packers loss.

Second can be the Aaron Rodgers Hail Mary in Detroit. My brother was abroad for enterprise. Boy, was he giving it to me after which the cross was accomplished. Nothing however crickets. Thanks for all you guys do.
Gregg from Arlington Heights, IL<\/strong>
We’d relive our first Lambeau expertise, the 2003 Denver sport. Our day included anticipation, parking at 9 a.m. for the three p.m. sport, Skip’s, Billy the tailgater, Favre’s, Saint Vince, Beads, Billy’s mates, touchdowns, and after Poole’s catch, watching the jubilation movement down from the skyboxes to the gamers on the sector and becoming a member of in on the enjoyable, well mannered safety, new tailgating buddies, road dancing, Fuzzy’s, Ziggey’s leftovers and wishing our day would by no means finish. (Editor’s notice:<\/strong> I miss Skip’s.)<\/em>
David from Janesville, WI<\/strong>
It could be a boring reply, but when I might sit and relive an outdated Packers sport, I might simply like to see one random sport from the Lambeau, Lombardi and Starr eras. See Hagemeister Park the place they’re passing the hat. Metropolis Stadium roaring on a Paul Hornung sweep or Lynn Dickey to James Lofton for a TD.
Steve from Seven Devils, NC<\/strong>
The New York Giants’ first regular-season sport on the Yale Bowl in New Haven, CT on Oct. 7, 1973, in opposition to Inexperienced Bay. Regardless of a sellout crowd of 70,050, it was simply greater than 1,000 off the Giants’ greatest crowd at Yankee Stadium. Solely six arrests had been made (two for intoxication). It was the primary time beer was bought legally on the Yale Bowl. All tickets had been priced at $8. Inexperienced Bay received 16-14 with Chester Marcol kicking a 32-yard FG with seconds left for the win.
Gardner from Circle Pines, MN<\/strong>
Sept. 24, 1978: Packers vs. Chargers in San Diego. My first Packers sport. Willie Buchanon intercepted 4 passes in a 24-3 win over the Bolts. I used to be in heaven as I witnessed Buchanon enter the report books for many INTs in a sport. The subsequent day the Chargers fired Tommy Prothro and employed Don Coryell who then put in Dan Fouts as his QB. Chargers followers have been grateful for that loss ever since.
Wally from Tigerton, WI<\/strong>
The NFC Championship Recreation vs. the Panthers. It was chilly however the ambiance was superb and when the sport was determined and the primary journey to the Tremendous Bowl in 29 years was secured. Longtime ticket holders had been crying tears of happiness! Finest sport in a few years. Shut second was the Sunday night time Bears video games the place AR12 had the six TD passes. Among the Bears followers round us left late first quarter and by no means got here again.
Tyler from Inexperienced Bay, WI<\/strong>
Actually powerful to choose, however it’s in all probability at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX. Chortle, chortle\u2026 (Editor’s notice:<\/strong> Effectively performed.)<\/em>
Bret from Hertel, WI<\/strong>
I might sit behind my dad and the grandfather I by no means met at sport one of many 1942 season, Packers vs. Bears. The sport was nice for the Packers for 3 quarters. Don Hutson’s biggest season was in 1942. He gave the Packers the lead within the third quarter along with his second TD.
Hank from Centennial, CO<\/strong>
I would be seated subsequent to an outdated pal, the late, nice Bronco Dean Lindoerfer, in his end-zone season ticket seats at Mile Excessive in Denver, when Favre accomplished an 82-yard bomb to Jennings to win the sport on the primary play in time beyond regulation. Jennings would have been operating proper at us as he caught that completely thrown ball.
Gavin from Albuquerque, NM<\/strong>
The Packers sport from historical past I might love to sit down within the stands and relive is the one, the one, The Ice Bowl. Two the explanation why: First, the historical past. I’ve a minor in historical past and would love to observe that sport in particular person. Two, my spouse is a Cowboys fan.
Bob from Pocatello, ID<\/strong>
I might like to relive the 2018 opener in opposition to the Bears. I used to be within the stands with my daughter. Actually obnoxious Bears followers proper behind us. Khalil Mack was a game-wrecker in his Chicago debut. Rodgers goes down within the first half. Lowest of lows. He trots out early within the third. After which — magic. Largest fourth-quarter comeback in Packers historical past. Highest of highs.
Donna from Darien, WI<\/strong>
It must be the 2018 season opener in opposition to the Bears. I watched it on tv and could not consider the comeback I used to be watching. My nephew was really at that sport however left early as a result of he had an extended drive residence to get to work within the morning. The playoff sport can be once they beat Chicago in January 2011 to achieve the Tremendous Bowl. The recollections of being a Packer fan positive are wealthy!

Vince Lombardi was in his final 12 months because the HC in GB.
Mark from Bettendorf, IA<\/strong>
The 1996 NFC Championship for apparent causes. My fandom began in 1972. It was my first style of success as a Packers fan. I turned down a ticket to the sport and have regretted it ever since.
Rod from Eau Claire, WI<\/strong>
I believe the Ice Bowl is the apparent reply, however I’ve lived by sufficient Wisconsin winters to rethink that one. I feel the Packers-Raiders sport the week Brett’s father handed away can be a particular sport to expertise in particular person.
Stefan from Rock Island, IL<\/strong>
The 2014 regular-season matchup with the Patriots at Lambeau. It was one of many few alternatives for Packers followers to see Rodgers vs a “GOAT-caliber” QB. We missed different AR12 vs. TB12 alternatives, and by no means obtained a Rodgers-Patrick Mahomes duel. This was additionally an exceptionally clear sport. My reminiscence recommended no penalties, however the field rating had 4 per workforce for 47 yards complete within the sport.
Marcus from Midvale, UT<\/strong>
I feel I would have to decide on the sport between Inexperienced Bay and the Patriots in 2014. A basic sport that went all the way down to the wire. A real duel between two nice quarterbacks, two nice coaches and two historic groups. I hoped for a rematch within the Tremendous Bowl, however we can’t discuss that. (Editor’s notice:<\/strong> This could have been my reply. To at the present time, it is the perfect soccer sport I’ve watched because it pertains to technique and efficiency.)<\/em>
