Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Football Game
The Green Bay Packers picked LeRoy Butler in the second
round of the 1990 NFL draft. As a safety
Butler played his entire career with the Packers until retiring in 2001.
He has always been one of Jill’s favorite Packer stars and yesterday I happened to be wearing a jersey sporting his name and number to the game at Lambeau.
Wouldn’t you know it – Butler was signing autographs at the Igloo tent before kick-off and he happily signed the throw-back jersey and posed for photos. I even managed a couple of signed 8x10 glossy player photographs from his playing career.
It is strange to think that there some remote possibility that I was the only person to happen-upon him yesterday wearing that shirt.
Who knew?

Game Day
Terrific day for football today - scattered rains and 53 degrees at the House of Lambeau.
Our pals Tom and Karen invited us to join them and witness the Saints over the Packers 26 to 17.
We also learned of another most excellent burger joint - Kroll's West (one of two) that serves an American Heart Association approved game day lunch of deep fried cheese curds and an original butter burger.
Yum!

Packer Sunday
Packers 17 - Seahawks 9. Woot Woot!
Great defensive game and terrific weather. Never had to don the sweatshirt I dragged-along in case of a chill. Nice start to what will hopefully be a play-off bound season.
Thanks to my pal Lawyer who had a couple of extra tickets we could purchase from him.
Go Pack!

Packers
Green Bay vs. Dallas divisional playoff game recap.
Trailing 21-13 in the third quarter, A-Rod threw a couple of touchdown passes in the second half leading the Packers over the Cowboys 26 - 21.It was a nail biter.
On to Seattle for the NFC championship game.
Some game day photos. The Frau and Yours Truly, network camera crew, a fan with a dead animal on his head, and me with House Ways and Means Committee Chair and former candidate for vice president - Paul Ryan.
Next weekend is a tough game. Go Pack!
