    Well, its easy to overstate the revenue side. Tickets matter less and less as a percentage to the bottom line. And that revenue is split between home and visiting teams.

    The County made it clear during the last two renovations (especially the tax financed one) that the Packers needed to expand capacity AND make tickets available on Game Day. So the team's first priority isn't exactly number of seats available.

    However, 10-12,000 is a big chunk.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

      I sure as Hell wouldn't want to be the Packer Board member that tells 12,000 Season Ticket Holders they are going back on the Waiting List for Tickets....The Fox River could run Red for a few Days.

        Do to the north end zone what you did to the south, that makes up for the lost seats

        Then add the lost skyboxes to the East and west boxes

        Or get rid of the East or west boxes, continue the southern stands around to that side and add more boxes to the top of the other sideline

        Whoever decided to box in the whole top of the stadium was a real idiot that last time they did that

        They also could have solved this whole thing during the last renovation by adding real seats and just adding a few more rows to the top when they were already adding rows

          Most of the newer stadiums have 2nd and even 3rd tier balcony style seating. Would it be possible to engineer a single tier of balcony seating for Lambeau Field. I'm sure that it would require great planning and very solid construction.

          Would an extra 10 to 12 thousand seats at Lambeau also require additional bathrooms and additional concession kiosk? Would additional seating at Lambeau justify building more Hotels in Green Bay? Restaurants?

            Does the NFL require all goal post to be yellow. Can they be a green/white candy stripe?

              Probably. Otherwise you'd have people in the balcony pissing on the fans below.
              I can't run no more
              With that lawless crowd
              While the killers in high places
              Say their prayers out loud
              But they've summoned, they've summoned up
              A thundercloud
              They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

                If you let the evicted fight the be-chaired over prime seating, the problem becomes the solution.

                  When it's sunny and the sun is in the right spot, you can really get cooked from the reflection off those box seat windows.

                    "Lambeau Gladiators" could run for several off-seasons to winnow the crowd. Pro tip: choose the Ahn-woon over the lirpa - lirpa blades are notoriously brittle.

                      Yes, stadium construction is a valid issue, but other topics can be discussed as well.

                      Other teams travel to pre season training camps. Yet GB insist on remaining at St.Norbert College (in GB). A training camp in Milwaukee or some other Wisconsin city could be a great thing. Washington did it in Richmond, Va and it has been a very good thing for all concerned.
