3. I'm going to try SKYPEing my brother from my iPhone and try to blow his mind.

4. Every Packer fan should try to go at least once. It is truly a rush!

The first time I walked out into the stadium I got a dose of full-body goosebumps.

Championship game versus Dallas. Friend had season tickets and said it was going to be too cold for him. It was. Game time was -13 without counting wind chill. Wind felt like about 100mph. I drank a quart of Schnapps and still froze.

I had thought that two winters of US Navy service in North Atlantic and Artic, off the North coast of Russia, would prepare me. It didn't.

But in retrospect, I bet you're damn glad you stuck it out. Great game, but I don't think I would have been able to hack those temps for a whole game, liquor or not. Makes me shiver just to think about it.

8. It wasn't a question of "sticking it out the whole game."

By half time I couldn't leave because I was frozen too stiff to move. At the end of the game I was sort of carried out by the momentum of the crowd.
