This is an epic stadium to visit/tour. Lambeau Field is full of history and Green Bay, WI is the standard for football spirit. The Packers are loved and adored by all in this small town.
Corky Facts -
It is the oldest stadium with an NFL team in continuous residence and the second-largest of the NFL's 30 stadiums, with a capacity of 81,441. Most of the seats in the stadium are metal benches - yup - nothing cushy about the seats (smile).
Lambeau Field is named after Earl "Curly" Lambeau, a Green Bay Packers founder, player and longtime head coach.
Pros
1. Still has things that are associated with the earlier days of the NFL, like the metal benches everyone sits in for game days #nostalgic.
2. Stadium is large, clean, and well kept.
3. The tour guides give you a great deal of history about the stadium and the team, including that the field grass is not a combinationof real grass and turf. AND, those waiting to become season ticket holders, well, wait on, season tickets have been sold out since 1960. The waiting list has over 150,000 names with an estimated wait time of 25-30 years. Yup, that is what my tour guides stated. I was like dang!
4. The Fan Shop is huge. I do mean huge. Definitely something for everyone, including those who aren't Packer fans (lol).
5. Staff is friendly and excited to be at work.
I don't have any cons. This review is of stadium when I took a tour. I cannot speak to what it is like on game day. It is an understatement to say, or utter that citizens of Green Bay, WI don't fully support their Packers. B-A-B-Y, they love their Packers. Just an assumption here but game days is probably full of excitement and Packer Pride.
The tour is awesome! I highly recommend it even if you aren't a football fan. Lambeau Field is epically unique and worth experiencing.
