[QUOTE="LambeauLombardi, post: 793203, member: 12687"] First time I remember watching football was Packers @ Colts in 97 when I was 7. I was at my grandpa's house and he was a big Packer fan dating back to the Lombardi days. A fair amount of people in Iowa are Packer fans but it's quite evenly spread out between them, the Bears, Vikings, and Chiefs along with Broncos, St Louis (at that time) Rams, Cowboys, 49ers, and Steelers sprinkled in. Games I've cried after include 97 SB loss to Denver, Terrell Owens 'Catch 2' in 98, 4th and 26, 07 NFC Championship vs Giants, and pretty close in the 51-45 playoff loss @ Arizona in 09. I'm not as emotional now as when I was a kid but still yell at the TV loudly on occasion. Been to Lambeau twice in 06 vs Jets and week 17 2015 vs Vikings. Also saw Packers @ Vikings in 2014 at TCF Bank Stadium. Been very frustrated over the last few years on the team underachieving in addition to the Wisconsin Badgers/Milwaukee Brewers being rivals of my 2 favorite teams and having beat them in big moments this year makes me want to see Wisconsinites a little less happy but will wear Green and Gold until the day I day.
