My First Trip to Lambeau Field as a Bears fan full review 🐻⬇️ Packers Fans: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cordial, helpful, and surprisingly welcoming. Sure, they threw a few digs my way, but considering the ass-whooping their team delivered, they never really tried to rub it in. Great home fans, too. Loud and engaged from start to finish. Credit where credit is due. Outside the Stadium: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Being there made me REALLY hope the Bears end up moving to Arlington Heights. The best way I can describe it is that Lambeau feels like someone dropped an NFL stadium into the middle of Rosemont, except with a small-town atmosphere. Free parking, everything within walking distance, fantastic tailgating, and an awesome overall game-day atmosphere. The Titletown area is especially impressive. It gives the entire place a completely different feel from what I’m used to in Chicago. Not saying Chicago doesn’t have its own perks, because it absolutely does. But the idea of having our own little Bears city surrounding the stadium? That would be incredible. Inside the Stadium: ⭐️⭐️ I’ll give Lambeau credit for its history and the effort to preserve that old-school football atmosphere. There’s something cool about being inside a stadium with that much tradition. But beyond that? Yikes. First off, I’m convinced the sections were numbered by someone who was dyslexic. 😂 It’s hard to explain without actually being there, but even Packers fans were accidentally sitting in the wrong sections. And if your seats aren’t on the first level? Good luck. Unlike most stadiums, there are only two ways up on each side of the stadium. If you find food you want on the first level, getting to it becomes a whole adventure. You can’t take the elevator down to the first level unless you’re exiting the stadium. You can’t bring food onto the elevators or escalators. It’s just one inconvenience after another. And the bleacher seating? Super mid. No cup holders, very little comfort, and I can’t even imagine how miserable those things get during a freezing December or January game. I understand preserving history, but some modern conveniences wouldn’t hurt. Overall Experience: FANTASTIC Despite the ass whooping and my complaints about the stadium’s interior, I had an incredible time. Lambeau absolutely deserves its reputation as one of football’s iconic destinations. The fans, tailgating, surrounding atmosphere, and overall experience are something every football fan should experience at least once.
