I don't think people mind the ticket prices so much as the parking prices, the traffic, the crazy overpriced food and drink, the drunks spilling beer all over, etc.

Ticket prices and all of that combined are the problem. When it would cost $200+ just for me to go to a game and do all the things I want to enjoy it, it just isn't worth it at all. Throw in the added ticket price of playoff tickets, forget it.

Go Skers!!
FIFY.....
Gotta admit I'm a little worried about the 49ers playing in that cold of weather. Hopefully they can play through it and get a good win.
Just saw this. Looks...cold.

Love the way that Lambeau turf turns almost brown in the cold weather.

That picture looks so miserable. I wonder what it feels like to get hit when it's that cold outside.

My family has had a pair of season tickets for the Broncos since 1976. I went often from then up until the late 80's, but only a handful of times since 1990, and never since they built the new stadium. The cost, along with the drive and parking and then getting out of the lot after the game just got to the point where it soured me on the whole experience.
When they built the new stadium they gave the long time ticket holders the shaft. Our tickets in the old Mile High Stadium were on the 3rd level on the 10 yard line, with a nice view of most of the field. When they built the then Invesco Field at Mile High (now Sports Authority) they turned the entire third level to club level and somehow our seats ended up all way up on the 5th level in the nose bleed sections - with a price increase to go with the screwing. It was either pay twice as much (or more) for the new 3rd level or take pot luck. If I'd been the one holding the tickets, I'd have just dropped them in protest, but my sister wanted them after my parents quit going and now her daughter has control. I don't even know how much they cost these days, but I know that my niece sells at least half of them to make the rest affordable for her.
I simply can not comprehend this;
I saw on twitter they are giving away free coffee, hot chocolate and hot tea to anyone that is there.
I wonder how fast that stuff freezes when served?
Hot Chocolate Pops? Bill Cosby would be in heaven!

As a titans fan I will always appreciate Munchak but he was not HC material. He could have stayed but would not make significant changes in his coaching staff
The NFL could have moved the Packer game to today and swapped with the Colts/Chiefs.
Flex scheduling starts week 11-16 & these games that are moved require 12 days notice....week 17 only requires 6 days notice..... This game could have been moved and it's beyond me why they didn't.

I'm sure we'll also see some drunken shirtless idiots in the crowd as well.
