Not good news on the trip to see the Patriots-Packers game at Gillette. All my friends bailed on me when it came to decision time, so I won't be making the trip out to enjoy in person what may be one of the greatest matchups of the season. They all decided they would rather spend their money on premium tickets for the Miami game in Green Bay, which is what we'll be doing. I also don't think it helped that the game was scheduled so close to the Christmas holiday.
However, I did manage to find some other friends (that were more decisive) willing to go to the Packers-Bears game, week 3 in Chicago, to see the NFL's longest standing rivalry on Monday Night Football.
Regardless, I'll likely stick around these boards for a while, checking in maybe a couple times a week or so. Thanks for all the advise about the stadium, and who knows, maybe in 2018 when the Packers are next scheduled to play @NewEngland, I'll be able to make the trip out there.
