Training Camp Heaven
















I was eager to experience the new Ray Nitschke practice field and it did not disappoint.  This facility is fantastic!  It was built with the Packer fan in mind.  Now at the morning practice, the sun isn't in your eyes, traffic won't run you over, and you don't have to look through a fence.  It is designed to look like it is from ancient times, like the 1930s or 1940s, with a brick facing that matches the stadium.  Vendors have what you need right outside of the bleacher and there is a boardwalk made of brick to walk along the venue to pick your entrance.  Probably most importantly there are ushers making sure people find a seat and don't block the views or the walkways.  Unbelievable!  It is better than you would have expected in the age of high revenue stakes of pro sports.  If you haven't been to camp, you better make plans.
