    I'm headed to Green Bay this weekend to see the mighty Texans take on the Farve-less Packers. High temp on Sunday is something like 22 degrees.

    What should I do on Saturday? I arrive MKE at 3:00 PM. I'm planning on driving straight to Green Bay and hitting the town for as many beers as possible before kickoff at noon on Sunday.

    Good bars?
    Good eats?
    Good people?
    Good other?

    Group consists of four 30-something guys.

    Also, I'm not naming names, but at least one of the 30-something guys, maybe even the one that's only going to be 30-something for another six months, has a mental condition that makes him think he's still a recent college graduate even though UT handed him a diploma in 1991.

    Separately, I'm flying Continental Express to MKE which may just kill me. My 6' 5" not skinny self doesn't even like regular coach seats. I usually spend at least 25% of any flight standing in rear of the plane chatting up the flight crew and stretching my legs. Of course, on CO Express that's not even possible since the ceiling is about 5' 9' high. I am NOT looking forward to the flight.

    Bernard, My wife's family is from the Appleton area and a couple of her aunts have season tickets to the Packers. I just sent them your question and will post their responses here as soon as I get them.

    I have been to GB three times for games- not much to do. Drink, drink and eat. There are a few casinos. I stayed at the Best Western and that has one there. The people are great in that town!
