Winks signed up for the Packers season ticket waiting list about ten years back, and he always keeps his waiting list number up on the refrigerator, and I always laugh when I see it. It's just a crazy thing that so many people are on this list for season tickets. I mean don't get me wrong I would love to have season tickets for the Packers, but I know it will be something I will never get to enjoy. I seems that if you didn't have a relative of some sort that already had them odds are you will not get them in your lifetime. But today the Packers announced that they will be adding 6,600 seats by the 2013 preseason, so people will have a better chance now to move up the list.
The addition will be made on the south end-zone where it looks like they will be making a new scoreboard, and adding seats on each side of the scoreboard. Going to the Patriots game last year it is kind of like the seating they have, and really they were nice seats. You are up far enough, and you either have the play coming right at, or going away from you. That view also lets you see the play develop. The project will cost about 130 million, but the good news is no tax dollars will be used for the upgrade.
The two new video boards will be ready for the 2012 season they hope. Getting new HD scoreboards is the new thing, and once the Packers get the two new ones up all of Wisconsin Sports will be up to date.
