Bears Game will be my 1st visit to Lambeau any advice

When I go, which is once a year normally, I just break down and buy a parking pass from the Resch Center. If you buy online, its $25 which is about as expensive as it gets outside of being in the stadium lot, but you are guaranteed a spot and an easy exit. There are lots of spots with room to tailgate.

Its also works well for non-weekend games when we don't get there very early.

You are two blocks from the Stadium and close to a bunch of establishments to enjoy a beverage. BTW, unless you like large, drunk crowds (and sometimes they can be fun) stay away from the Stadium View.

Someone I know with season tickets stops on the outskirts of town (or even De Pere) to eat and drink. They then drive to their parking spot and walk right into the game. Probably not as much fun as the carnival atmosphere around the stadium, but your stomach and ears will love you for it. With the guaranteed Resch parking spot, you can choose whatever food or watering hole you want and still get close to the stadium at any time.

Good stuff for anyone attending a game for the first time.

Packer Hall of Fame is a must as is a Stadium Tour

I also have fond memories of Caramel at the Oval Office.... scratch that idea ....haha

thanks all great info

I think it all depends on where you want to tailgate at.

You should decide if you want to be East or West of the Stadium. I can't tell you much about the West side, that is the new Title Town area. There are a couple of bars on that side of the stadium but that is the side that the Interstate runs by not too far away and the Packers have grabbed all the land there for the Title Town district.

The East side is where all the bars are. You have Stadium View, The Bar, Anduzzi's, Green Bay Distillery, Brett Favre Steak House. There is a great lot just behind the Green Bay Distillery, that charged $15 per game last year, that is 3 blocks from the stadium and just on the edge of all the bars on that side of Lambeau. They also have plenty of room if you have your own grill and want to cook out.

Definitely take the stadium tour, see the Hall of Fame and go to the Packers Locker Room "under/below" the stadium.

Can any of you locals provide local ticket agencies, I can go stub hub but looking for other options that might be local to greenbay. Just need to secure some ticket now

thanks all it's a Thursday game though so not sure on the tours.

d'oh! lol

pb, is that the "US Cellular" lot the website refers to?

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.

[mraynrand]

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.

Okay I'm in... Lower Level Sideline 126 Row: 44, and yeah you need to mortgage your house using these brokers, oh well, "GO PACK GP"

[jklowan]

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.
