"All-Time High for Packers Ticket Waiting List Rick Rietbrock GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- The waiting list for Green Bay Packers season tickets is at an all time high. Just how tough is it to become a season ticket holder? Well, if you signed up now, there would be 73-thousand-988 others ahead of you on the list. Packer games have been sold out since 1960. Team ticket office supervisor Carol Edwin says Packer fans have been known to place their unborn children on the list, then call back after they're born to provide a name for the list. St. Norbert assistant professor Matt Stollack crunches the numbers on how long it would take for tickets. With 156 tickets becoming available each year, Stollack says it would take 473 years to become a season ticket holder."

I'm a season ticket holder

5/2/2007 12:30:12 PM

When I signed up for Redskins season tickets in 1992 I was number 45k or so. It took till 2003 before I could get tickets but 20k people got tickets when they opened the new stadium. When I signed up I was told it could be 30 years or so before I got tickets.

the Packers will go back to sucking after Brett Farve retires.

5/2/2007 12:31:52 PM

They haven't been good for a while dude. And neither has Favre.

Being that I spent a couple of months working in Green Bay, it is not that bad of a place to live, especially in the spring/summer. I would hate to be there in the winter though.

As for the waiting list, you would think that they could expand the stadium some more ala UT or UM and make more $$. They just renovated the outside of Lambeau, but they should have tried to add more seats as well.

1 spot out of the playoffs sucking?? strange logic

If only the Packers were more like the Panthers...

5/2/2007 7:27:37 PM

and what? Have a below-average season with a very high-average roster (Super Bowl pick by many at beginning of the season)

Brett Favre>>>>Ryan Leaf>>>Jake Delhomme

5/2/2007 8:26:13 PM

man, the packers are one of the few nfl teams that really got it right.

now let everyone tell me how great the nfl is.

5/2/2007 10:07:57 PM

dude. the fans there are nuts. they could be 0-15 going into the last game and the place would still be full...with the infamous.....LETS go PACK chant they do.

5/3/2007 12:51:16 AM

when i signed up for the redskins ticket waiting list in 2004 i was #146,474

if the skins continue to suck i should get there in maybe 6-7 years

5/3/2007 7:58:46 AM

I wonder how long is the Panther waiting list. I'm planning to get on it after I graduate.

5/3/2007 8:16:41 AM

the panthers don't have a waiting list right now.

5/3/2007 8:25:26 AM

Probably never will

5/3/2007 10:02:26 PM

This is really no suprise. There is shit else to do up there other than go to Packers games.

5/3/2007 10:07:49 PM

i think im going to try and get on this list

5/3/2007 10:56:01 PM

Want to wait for season tickets, try the cubs waiting list. I might get mine when my grandkids are in their 20's. And by the way Go Bears.

5/3/2007 10:57:51 PM

hgtran...actually there are only 2,000 panther season tickets left....give it about 5-6 more years and there won't be any...at least I hope.

5/4/2007 12:58:09 AM

if your father/grandfather has season tickets, they can be passed down or around to anyone you want, correct?
