Near -45 degree wind chill possible for 49ers @ Packers on Sunday night.

[-JJ-]

What do you guys think of that macho attitude "I'm not wearing any sleeves" no matter the weather?

 

If we play that cold, I hope my team could give rat's batoot about being "manly!"  Keep warm.  Play hard!

They (or some) wear vaseline among other stuff for the skin........

Wow is that even possible? lol I know it is but insane.

 

May actually help GB since SF is not as used to the cold.  GB can run the ball with Lacy well too this year.....I don't think it will all be on Rodgers.

 

 

Lowest weather temperature ever recorded was -128 degrees F in Antarctica. That's without the wind shield factor.

   I don't know how the fans can even see the game with their faces getting whipped by (minus-35 chill)

Wind chill warning

 

My guess is the temp will not even reach 0 Sunday.  Expect Lacy and Gore to get lots of carries...and Starks as well for GB.  Rodgers will be much better throwing than Kap.  Kap has the arm, but the wind will be tricky.  I will be amazed if the 49ers win.....

The fans will be rockin....nonetheless...it is Green Bay for gosh sakes....

Oh god....

And suddenly I have made the decision to never live in Wisconsin. I would rather be homeless in Nicaragua.

LOL!!!  I am with you on that one

For those who are not aware The National Weather Service is issuing a warning for:

LIFE THREATENING COLD

[Girlzarefanstoo]

I worry that some day a player is going to be terribly injured or even lose their life in one of these truly horrific weather games.

Someone actually died in the stands in the original ice-bowl.

[Jules]

Oh god....

 

 

 

 

 

 

I figured it out. The end times are starting Sunday in Green Bay......

[GoColts8818]

Oh god....

 

What do you do when it's -75?  I mean even if you have a heater on full blast it's still got to be cold.

[Jules]

And people wonder why the Pack had trouble selling tickets when they normally do not?

 

Packers fan 1: "Hey I got these tickets.....take them. They are free."

 

Packers fan 2: "No dude you need to go.....really go. I checked the weather."

 

Packers fan 1: "No I insist, please go and take these free tickets......"

 

Packers fan 2: "Punches Packers fan 1......YOU CAN NOT MAKE ME FREEZE AND SUFFER."

 

Packers fan 1: Punches Packers fan 2 back......WHAT KINDA FAN ARE YOU TAKE THEM."

[Dustin]

Move.

[GoColts8818]

Move.

That was my first thought too. 

[shecolt]

Just saw this on FB and thought it was a fitting addition to this thread:

 

 

[T Y Goodbye]

My hope that no one, including fans, workers, staff, security etc does not get serious injuries or die because of the cold. And I hope Security also tells some of the drunken fans that decided to take off their shirts, to get them on before they die of frostbite.

 

I honestly think they shouldn't be playing this game in these type of conditions. Its not safe for anyone.

[Girlzarefanstoo]

I would like to see a rule of some sort instituted whereby if a game were going to fall below the weather threshold it is delayed a few days and moved to a neutral, domed site. 

 

Yeah, it would screw up the tickets and the fans getting to be at the game but in the end, it would also encourage these brutal cold weather teams to put up domes so they aren't gaining an undue advantage with the cold.

.....speaking of Gore

 

[GoColts8818]

Minnesota's new stadium will be a dome....

 

The Bears badly need one.....The lakefront in Chicago is Ice Station Zebra

 

..and their turf is like manure pasted on an old pool table..

 

....Cleveland needs a team first....but then the dome question has to come up there, too

vikings new stadium is supposed to be open atleast that's what CBS pregame said when talking about closing the metrodome.

You best not talk about a dome in Green Bay. Packer fans might throw you out of town for real.

[Jules]

I hope this game is amazing. Wish the Pack and Niners didn't play this weekend since I wanted both to advance, sigh.

 

I am pulling for GB and hope they have better luck vs. SF at home in the cold but at the same time I hate to see Harbaugh out so soon too. But, I want the Pack to surprise people.....
