Packfool--
I really didn't want to respond, but since you won't let this die, I'm hoping this will put an end to this. I will post this in two places to make sure your dumb a$$ reads it:

I WAS there. And let me explain something to you:

1. I was piss drunk. Now, you say that's not excuse. However, let me point something out to you: I'm 6' tall and weigh 140 lbs. If I drink 6 beers I can barely remember my freaking name, let alone who in the hell played whom. I had over 6 the day of the game (among other things ... ) I've been going to Chiefs games for 20 years and can't recite every game I've been to. They could've played the Vikings. Hell, they could've played the freaking Badgers and I wouldn't have remembered. I was bent over most of the game trying not to puke. Also, we left midway in the third quarter.

2. We didn't walk up to the box office and get tickets. My best friend from high school's mom lived in Green Bay and gave us the tickets for under face value (she also got us tickets for a Chicago preseason game in 1992 for cheap from her cousin. Of course, you'd probably call me a liar for that as well. )BTW, we paid $40 for two tickets, not a piece.

3. While I may have posted that I had an entire section to myself, it's something called hyperbole, or, in your terms, a way to make a point by exagerating the facts/numbers/information to make said point. But I will guarantee you this: There were at least 5,000-10,000 no shows when the national anthem was being sung--why I don't know, but a lot of people weren't there yet. Maqybe they showed up late. Of course, since it was chilly maybe they were all on each others laps.

The thing is this: I wasn't as into football then as I am now. If I were to go now, I would have a better appreciation of the history of Lambeau and the Packers and wouldn't pound 6+ beers in two hours. But then I was 18, cocky (or at least more so than I am now) and while I loved football, I loved a good buzz even more so I really didn't care.

If you don't want to believe me, fine.

As far as Denise goes, I had her on ignore for a long time so I never had a chance to read her support of Trent. Once I did, I was man enough to apologize for my error. You should try it sometime.
