When I saw they were trying to sell tickets at $190ish CAD, I was pretty surprised.
Face-value tickets in historic Lambeau Field start at $109 or so for a regular season game where you get to see all the starters actually trying and the game matters. I went to 3 games last year and later in the season tickets were dirt cheap. I dont think I paid more than $50/each for any game, and even got a pair of tickets for free and my wife got sick Sunday morning so I went alone and sold the extra ticket for $20 in the parking lot. I agree...that seems really high for a pre-season game.

Gotta resurrect this post real quick in case anyone isn't watching. Due to poor field conditions, the field was shortened to 80 yards and neither team is playing starters. The stands look super empty! What a joke! What's wrong with the field? This is why the US didn't want to annex Canada....they cant do the simplest things right.

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

At first I thought it was issues with the turf in endzones, but I heard one of the announcers say something about the padding around the goalposts being insufficient. Apparently there was some uncertainty about whether or not the game was even going to happen. Less than a half an hour before the game and none of the coaches or players were out on the field. Wow.....what a debacle. How we looking so far?

It amazes me that there are enough people willing to spend that kind of money to fill even half the seats. there isn't, that's why they reduced prices
