Packer Game

I was able to score some tickets to the last Packer game of the year from a friend of a friend of a friend. Cathy's dad, despite having grown up and living in Wisconsin for decades, had never been to to a game at Lambeau Field. So we gave him his ticket for Christmas. The plan was that since he was watching Liam and Owen Saturday night while we were at a wedding in Appleton he would then drive up and arrive at the hotel at 9 AM and then we would go to the game with two other friends at the wedding and arrive at about 10 AM for some tailgating... well... the best laid plans don't always work. We left at 10 AM for a 1/2 hour ride to Lambeau but traffic was horrible so we arrived just after the game started. Second, Cathy's dad called earlier and said he had a flat tire! He arrived, after much trouble, for the start of the 2nd quarter, which I thought was pretty good. Too bad that after he showed up all the touchdowns were scored at the opposite end. To boot, I have been to some cold games in Green Bay, but I had never been to one where ice was frozen to the aluminum benches which meant that when you sat down (and your rear warmed up the bench) your rear would be instantly soaking wet for the remainder of the game. Anyway, a good time was had by all and the Packers beat the Lions (0-16) to end the season.
