People in Green Bay may not get to watch playoff game

[BearDown33]

With Green Bay not selling out their game yet (7,500 tickets still unsold) they are in danger of being blacked out.

That's what the NFL office gets for having the refs insure their victory over us.

Couldnt happen to a more deserving fanbase

There would be plenty of ways for them to still watch it if they're smart . . . forget it, there's no way for Packers fans to watch it.

They won't get blacked out.

Does this surprise anyone else....? I thought they filled their stadium normally..... how can you not fill a stadium for a playoff game?

You're most likely right. They said sponsors would buy the remaining seats if it came to that. But they should feel foolish for expanding the stadium if you can't even sell the seats. They might have to do what the White Sox did and remove some seats.

These tickets would be sold within 10 minutes if the game was in Chicago.

They do not want to attend a game where it is possible to have negative temperatures. I would love to attend a game like that in Chicago, a once in a lifetime type game to experience that type of weather. Terrible fan base.

It would have went like hot cakes

True, but it also helps that we have the smallest stadium capacity in the NFL. They should add more seats to Soldier Field, it's probably not possible though.

I hope they all get AIDS and then die of cancer.

Boykins walks in for a TD---Sweet. Rodgers to Cobb with 45 seconds left----sweeter. Bear fans with nothing better to do than talk Packer playoffs--------Sweetest.

See the above comment about AIDS and cancer

I'm confident that after this weekend, we won't be talking about them in the playoffs anymore.

Might very well go down like that. SF is strong across the board and playing well now. We'll need the weather to be on our side.....and oh yea, the refs too! lol

They lost interest when Rodgers told them he wasn't gay...

WHICH ONE IS THE TOP???

Assuming the rumor is true, you'd gladly switch places with dude on the left if it meant Rodgers would wear navy and orange. Enjoy the next 7 yrs. I know I will!!
