I'm with ivo610 - I don't like the disruption to their routine the travel will cause, but it'll be great for our European friends ... and Bill. ;)


I'd prefer every game to be a noon (CST) or 3:15 (CST) every Sunday and I'm guessing the coaches and players would as well. I don't know if players get up more for prime time games (I would hope not) but if they do it works for the other team as well.

Fun fact: Wembley Stadium uses Desso GrassMaster turf, the same hybrid natural/artificial turf system used at Lambeau field and the Packers outdoor practice facilities. Mile High is the only other NFL stadium using this system.

I love the noon games particularly but the disruption I was talking about is all the time needed to travel there and back.

Anyone want to join the UK packers at Lambeau this year? We are going over for the throwback game vs Chargers. Still space if you get in quick. It's going to be a trip to remember.

hell yeah, i was thiknking as there is a forum meet at lambeau this year, why not have a meet n greet if we get to SB, obviously somewhere kinda central in the UK would be handy-ish, and hopefully someone local would know of and alcohol dispensing establisment that would screen the game

Talk about time difference! I live in Thailand. I am 12 hours ahead of Packer time . A noon game is a midnight game for me. I never miss a game.

I think we should organize a meeting of forum members for that one.

Well, first thing you need to do if you're going to party with Brits is learn to misspell words as such "organise" ... we are a people separated by a common language as someone once said... those whacky Brits do that just to mess with us. :)
