Football Fare
Sunday. Green Bay. The Packers. Lambeau Field. Da Bears. 75+ degrees and sunny. A perfect day, no? NO! I will not mention the score of the game here except to say that the BEARS STILL SUCK. And so we’re not going to talk about stinking football this week. We’re just going to talk about food.
We parked just a few short blocks from the stadium. All of the streets and parking lots were set up like a big tailgate party. As we walked, the melodious notes of “The Bears Still Suck” polka drifted to our ears.
You need to start your pre-Lambeau morning off with Bloody Marys of course. It’s easy to do when there are Bloody Mary bars scattered about. This one had the right idea, offering horseradish, pickled mushrooms, olives, celery, etc, along with garlic pickles, jalepeno pickles and horseradish pickles to dunk.
Of course, there were cheeseheads of all shapes and sizes indulging in the obligatory brats.
Speaking of brats, what should appear in Green Bay for the big game but the Famed Johnsonville Brat Truck Grill. It’s last reported sighting was at the Madison Brat Fest….
Wisconsin candy was everywhere, including Cow Pies, Moo Chews and Udderfingers.
We wandered the appropriately named streets, bumping into Packer Elvis…
But we decided to eat in Lambeau Field, in the Atrium. We had brats and hot dogs… what else?
And I leave you with the following thought. I’m showing restraint by not posting the picture of the back of this t-shirt. This is, after all, a “G” rated blog. (G for Green Bay, of course!)

But Da Bears are 1-0 against Da Pack in da Lovie Smith era. Maybe dose delicious looking brats and cheese slowed down da Farverehre?

Hey, we’ll just see who is talking big on January 2. The Packers are only going to hand the Bears one win this season - the next game is going to be ugly for da Bears fans.
PS: And what kinda name is Lovie, anyway? Wuss.
