So I am flying out from Phoenix for this Monday's Cowboys game and wanted some seasoned "Bear Weather" fans to give me some advice on what/what not to wear or bring? Ill be sitting in the upper deck end zone. Not gonna lie, kinda worried about freezing to death but would like to see the Iron Mike ceremony first.

Just layer up, you can always remove if you get too warm(doubt it). Don't bring kids, a huge percentage of Bears fans are inconsiderate assholes(no offense guys, it's true) and curse obnoxiously, regardless of who is around them.

Yeah, layers is always good advice and definitely a stocking cap.

Make sure you have on at least two pairs of long johns under your jeans/pants. Also wear at least thermal socks or two pairs of decently thick socks. Water proof boots are real nice too. On top, at least two-three really warm shirts, and something to cover your face if it's hairless. I wear a skull cap as well as a warm winter hat on my head. Then I have a pair of nice deerskin gloves, and hand warmers don't hurt. If you plan on sneaking anything into the game, crotching a plastic flask works every time.

Don't drink the hot chocolate. It's cold chocolate.

I concur with the layers. And these.

We usually get out there at 6:00 am for a noon game. Those hothands work fucking wonders.

This isn't a joke: wear depends. The bathroom lines for the upper level are brutal.

I have seriously considered doing that a few times but can't bring myself to do it...
