The Packers Practice, The Season Ticket Waiting List Grows

by Brandon on Jan 5, 2012 3:03 PM CST in Green Bay Packers News

Playoff bye week: Packers Thursday practice report - JSOnline. Not much going on at Thursday's practice for the Green Bay Packers. Only RB James Starks was held out as he continues to do rehab on his knee and ankle injuries. Everyone is expected to be available for practice next week. The players are now off until Monday.

Green Bay Packers news | Lambeau Field addition moving along; season-ticket waiting list at 96K | Green Bay Press Gazette. Just because the team plans to add a few thousand new seats doesn't mean that the 9000 fans who have added their names to the waiting list since September get to cut in line. Wait your turn!

The new seats will be going to people who have been waiting since the 1970s. Just another dozen or so stadium expansions to go before the list is wiped clean. It's such a depressing thought that I've never even added my name to it.

Waiting for a number

I just added my name to the list this past Christmas. Figured my great-great-great-grandkids can make a Packers game if I start now.

I added my name about eight years ago

Still 60,000 people ahead of me, though.

Happy Virginian, Sconnie for life.

You guys are making me feel lucky...

I’m a little above 9000 on the list.

Still going to be a long long time…

I've got the Gold Package.

And stadium parking.

Booya.

My dad is near the top of the list. I am just going to wait until one day when they are passed down to the kids. I don’t have the money for tickets now anyway. It would be nice to get a game or two a yer though.

I'm like Brandon...

I’ve never added my name to the list. Really wish my parents would have put my name on it when I was a kid. I might have a chance by the time I died… Once I got to be an adult it just seemed like a waste of time.

Since nobody in my family is a Packers fan

Obviously nobody ever had their names on the list. It’s a good thing I have friends that have STs, or else I may never get to go to a game.

Thought about the list.....

but never signed up for it. If I go to a game I’ll just pony up for the tickets. They can be had pretty easily. I may just add my 20 month old son’s name to the list.
