It’s estimated that nearly 2,000 fans showed up to watch the Green Bay Packers kick off their NFL training camp at Ray Nitschke Field.
Players get a ride!
Fans started lining up for the best seats before 3pm for the 7pm practice. Kids lined the up to wait for the players to come out, hoping to give them a ride on their bicycles.
When the fans were let inside the gates to the practice field, they filled the bleachers in a hurry. They were lined up 4 and 5 deep to get a glimpse of the action.
And because it’s the Green Bay Packers, the most storied franchise in the NFL, all the fans will be back tonight (Sunday) for a repeat performance. And for those that can’t make it back, there’ll be others to fill their shoes. It kind of reminds you of last year’s team.
