Home From Green Bay With A Win!

The Packer Buddies have finished their regular season games, record 3 wins 1 loss!  Not a bad season!

September 20 - Seahawks  WIN!!

October 18 - Chargers  WIN!!

November 26 - Bears  loss!!

December 13 -Cowboys  WIN!

The Cowboy game followed the script of the season!  Ugly!  The weather, for our second trip in a row, was wet, BUT warmer!  AND, in fact, the WARMEST Packer home game in December EVER!
Yes, I said EVER!  The Packer Buddies experience another Packer historical event!

Jim, Terry, Phil, Bill
(notice Roger(a Cowboy fan) in 2nd row between Phil & Bill)

So, the Packer Buddies are there!  And, Zeke & Ken!!


Zeke Bratkowski                                 Ken Bowman

Zeke was a Packer quarterback, mainly a back-up under Lombardi
Ken, center on the Super Bowl I & II teams!! And the Ice Bowl!!!

The game followed a similar pattern as most of the games this year!  Close till the end!  Big interception in the end zone by Shields early in the first quarter!  Lacy, running like he wanted to prove something & Starks complementing him running and catching passes!  A 14-0 halftime lead!

Then, the Cowboys scored to make it 14-7.  And the Packers have a 3rd quarter offensive shut down! Conservative play calling and Rogers & receivers still searching for a rhythm! 

Fourth quarter!  Packers score two more TD's!  Defense shuts out the Cowboys in the fourth!  Some of the keys?  Shield went out in the 2nd quarter & rookie Damariuos Randall gets the job of covering Dez Bryant!  One on One!

#1 Key to the Game - Randall covering Bryant!

And Lacy ran for 124 yards on 24 attempts, thats 5.2 yards per carry!  And a TD!

#2 Key to the Game - Eddie Lacy!

And Jeff Janis was a BEAST on special teams!  Covering Punts & Kick Returns!  He was downfield in a flash!  I STILL think he needs more time at receiver!!

#3 Key to the Game - Jeff Janis on Special Teams!

And of course, the Packer Buddies found all their favorite eating places!

The Beer Belly in Milwaukee!
Strategically located near the airport!

The Kozy Corner in Mischicot!  Our pre-game meal!


Our VICTORY dinner at Titletown!!

Another great trip!  

Fun with the Packer Buddies!

And a Green Bay Packer Victory!!!

Next up, Oakland Raiders & a reunion with Charles Woodson!
