Another alternative - try flying into Minneapolis and staying in Wausau or Stevens Point. ...
[quote] I was in that number last night. Wrigleyville was flooded with purple & gold. It was funny watching the bartenders try to figure it out why all the LSU fans. I must have been asked 1,000 times on Michigan Ave & Wrigley "why all the LSU fans?" Total takeover. [/quote] "We're in town for ...

You can't buy anything at liquor stores after 9. Latest last call will be around 1:30, with the lights coming on & the shotgun reloading at 2 AM at the latest....

Wisconsin overall is pretty relaxed about drinking laws.

If the first place you go to doesn't allow someone und...

[quote] They lost 35-17 in their opener last season.. would that be a blow out? [/quote] That was a blowout (it was 35-10 when Saban called off the attack), as was another game to a team that went on to win the national championship. Other than those games, Wisconsin hasn't lost by more than 20 ...
Wisconsin players will have an advantage having repped against this defensive style for a few years now, so the players can recognize some things easier. LSU coaches will have better player scouting reports from Aranda, but Chryst has been calling offenses for so long at Wisconsin, Pitt, and now Wi...
Here's hoping they're served Bloody Mary's overrun with garnishes on set. ...
[quote] It doesn't look like LSU will have many fans in the end zones, so any LSU player doing the Lambeau Leap will be jumping into Wisconsin fans. [/quote] I think LSU students and band are the first rows in the north end zone, Wisconsin's the entire south end zone. I'd imagine there will b...
[quote] Check out the 5th quarter. Fun stuff win or lose. Unique to cfb. [/quote] Oh man, I hope LSU's band sticks around for that too. It'd be great to get a 400 piece band for Wisconsin's mainstays, with some Tiger hits mixed in. ...

re: RV parking at Lambeau

I haven't heard anything about a team-specific lot for any type of parking, and that includes from the Badger ticket office. For finding a place to put an RV, [link=(https://www.greenbay.com/college-classic/rv-packages/)]here's the GB tourism link[/link]. Green Bay's Craigslist might be another opti...
Lambeau Field itself is near the top of bucket-list destination for sports fans, in the same way that Wrigley, Fenway, or Madison Square Garden are. It's more than just going to see a game, it's a pilgrimage of sorts, even if you're not a fan of either team playing. (But if you are oh baby!) More im...

re: Driving to Green Bay

11 of us drove from Madison to the Alabama game in Dallas last year, which is almost the same distance. We had enough planned out (stopping in Kansas City for BBQ, checking out the Sooner's stadium) that it ended up being pretty awesome. The highlight was putting a walkie talkie in each van to play ...
