PackerBuddies Bring Home a Win! First Game After McCarthy Era!

We did it!  We, meaning the Packer Players, Coaches, and of course the Packer Buddies and over 80,000 loyal fans!  The drama is over for now, and three more games to go in 2018!  First, the win!

First, our singer for the National Anthem for got the words!  What a season!

Then, the first Falcon drive ends in a TD after 2 controversial calls!  AND, new head coach Philbin uses up his challenges ALL on the first drive!  Score Falcons 7 Packers 0!

BUT, Packers score the NEXT 34 points and go up 34-7!  Something special just happened!  Packers players & coaching staff put the McCarthy era behind them! And, a new era begins!

What were the differences?

First Packer drive saw some QUICK passes!  An actual SLANT pattern to Cobb!  And Packers tie the score at 7-7!  And, we see a screen pass!  And, we see a draw play!!  And, we see Rodgers scramble for 1st downs!  And, we see the team back up Rodgers after a cheap shot!  And, we see Crosby make field goals!  And, we see a defensive TD!  And, we see a young corner take on one of the top receivers in the league and hold his own!!  And, we see new faces shine - Lancaster at defensive tackle.  3 of 5 offensive line backups, McCray, Spriggs, & Patrick hold there own!  And, we see an old vet, Matthews have a GREAT game!  And, you know 34-20 win!

Now,  the Packer Buddies had a great weekend!  First, after a great flight from Baltimore to Milwaukee, a stop for breakfast at the Hobo Restaurant!  Exit 107, off Interstate 43 north.  awesome comfort food for the start of the weekend!

Next, a quick visit to Lambeau and the Packer Pro Shop!  And, of course, a visit with Vince!

That night, an fantastic Titletown Light Show!!!

And, a game day pic, another Packer Buddy tradition!  Left to right - Terry, Bill, Phil, & Jim!

The Packer Buddies have been making their Pilgrimage to Lambeau for over 20 years!  The next post, I will give a brief history of the Packer Buddies and their love of Green Bay & the Packers!!!
