Hello pack fans. I am a Texans fan from Texas and am going to the game this weekend in Green Bay and was wondering how much clothing i should bring(I am going to bring alot) and does the wind usually blow and make it colder?
Thanks
good luck

Well, lets just out it this way... They don't call it the frozen tundra for no reason.
You don't need clothing, just bring your whiskey jacket.

I live 45 minutes South of Green Bay. It's 24 degrees right now, from what I understand, it'll be about the same come game time. However, being close to Lake Michigan and the Fox River, winds whip up and can make it seem a lot colder. Being that you are from Texas, I'd recommend bringing A LOT of extra layers. You can always take some off.
Also, stop by a gas station before the game, buy about 10 hand warmers. Put one in each glove and boots, trust me on this one!

Take my advice, bring your whole dresser,closet, everything. There is no other place that the air is so bitter cold. The wind usually isnt that bad, but when it comes, you'll know it.  Make sure you wear under armour or some sort of it under all your other clothes! I found that out the hard way  The one thing that does help you keep warm is the other thousands of people that are right next to you.
From experience, lambeau field is probably going to be one of the top 10 if not top 5 places you visit in your lifetime. As soon as you step through the gates and walk the the underpass to go to your seats the field immediately grabs your attention. I was shaking i was so excited and amazed.
I hope you enjoy your first trip to Lambeau.... The most historical stadium in the U.S!
Sorry if it ends in a loss for ya....not really

I'll be there too  . And, I know what to wear, trust me, I stayed warm through that G-Men game last season when it was like -30 wind chill. It's only supposed to get to the upper teens sunday so I suggest wearing some clothing.
I'll likely be wearing:
~Two Turtlenecks (One green, one gold. )
~Fleece
~Winter Jacket
~Warmers in my gloves, boots, and coat.
Stay warm buddy!

I recommend being a shirtless guy. You'll get on TV - and if the game is good, you won't even notice that your nips are gonna fall off.

I'd put on long underwear, sweat pants and a pair of jeans, make sure you bundle up on socks and wear thick shoes.
Little hints, make sure your ears are covered, hand warmers are cheap and can be bought everywhere, and bring Styrofoam to sit on and put underneath your shoes, those will save your life.

| The biggest thing is keeping your hands, feet and face warm. If they are warm the rest of you will not be bad as long as you have a couple of layers. |

Thats the whole reason im going is b/c how many times would a person from Texas get to go to Lambeau. We fly back right after the game late, and i have a final on monday and dont care i just wanna go to Lambeau.
Thanks for the advice.

Im glad the only Packers game I went to last year vs the Panthers, was very warm.... But if I were you, bring alot of clothes, I live in South Dakota, and it is FREEZING here.
