    They have two. One sort of behind the Resch, kinda by itself. They also have parking spaces along Lombardi Ave. US Cellular sells out first, I usually end up along Lombardi.

    Also I should have said you can buy online for $25, but day of game the price goes to $30 and you have to buy in person.

    Well, inflation hit the parking spot market again. The ticket agency that sells the tickets says its $35 in advance. That's just about crazy.

    At this point I would take ThunderDan's advice unless being guaranteed a spot was paramount. Only think I don't know is how early Dan gets to the game.

    We basically treat packer games as our vacation. Have to pay hundreds to get in via ticket broker. So $35 for parking isn't that steep. Supply and demand.

    BTW cheapest single game tix for Browns Packers rn are $70 for nosebleed.

    and so you can compare, parking at Foxboro the last time I was there for the Packers was 60 so even 35 seems like a bargain

    Damn ! Growing older in this life can sure Suck Big Time too often.

    That rise in PRICE is not simply a factor of inflation; rather it is robbery.

    It's neither. No one is taking your money. You don't have to go. And it's not inflation; it's a result of increased demand. Parking at 'the pit' in Cleveland for tailgating is still dirt cheap. Most regular parking is inexpensive there too. Enough people are willing to pay more for a choice parking spot at aPacker game. Thus $35.

    We used to park in people's yards for less than one would in the parking lot or businesses around Lambeau if you don't mind walking a few blocks to the stadium.

    First Packers game I went to we were running late. We were going to arrive a few minutes before kickoff.

    I think there is a fence there now but we drove down what had to be Lombardi Ave (memory of how we walked across to the Stadium), pulled into some guy's yard one space from the sidewalk and parked. There was no time to quibble about where to park, just took the first spot we saw that was close.

    $20

    We were less than a block away from the Stadium Parking lot. Saw them play Boomer and the Jets. Brooks, I think, did a Lambeau leap in our corner of the end zone about 20 rows in front of us.

    Just be prepared to razz the p!$$ out of any Bears fans that show up. I'm pretty certain we'll be handing the Bears their own ass.......

    Yep. The TitleTown construction has led to the elimination of some former parking spots which has altered the supply/demand. For years I've parked in a vacant lot a couple of blocks north of Lombardi. They charged $15 and wouldn't fill up. Last year they started charging $30 and did fill up. I could park on the street but it's a great tailgating spot.
