Talk about depressing...

Just saw the Vikings/Packers game from Nov. of 2000, in Lambeau, on NFL Network (on their "Greatest 4th Quarters" show). That's the game that Antonio Freeman caught the ball off his back and got up and ran the ball in for a TD for a 26-20 Packer overtime victory. AND that was my first (and so far ONLY) trip to Lambeau for a game.

Here are some pictures we took before and during the game...

Father and son sitting next to us...they were jerks for most of the game...

Mrs. Shock looking kinda miserable (it rained ALL NIGHT and was cold - Note my spelling mistake - I worked at a company called ADC Telecommunications at the time)

I don't know if I could handle being IN green bay after a loss, it was bad enough when I was at the dome and we lost to the packers

The worst part about that loss is a win would've given us homefield for the playoffs.
Oh well!

must have been before they renovated it, it looks like a crappy college stadium.

Ahh...
the Improbable Bobble.
Dishman was the chucklehead that let it happen, too.
UGH!
I remember almost CRYING after that game.
I was so pissed..

Great photos, though!

Just let the memories of the past be washed away by this week

Yes, it was 2000, I believe they finished the renovation a year or two later.

Yeah, and if my memory is correct, Dishman was cut right after that game. What a maroon. What an ignoranamus!

That game sucked.
I was in Mpls at a conference watching with some Packer fans and I lost my bets and had to buy rounds all night.
