Dave Edwards-So, it’s NFL Draft week!
It’s been a long time coming….now it’s here. The NFL Draft is ready to go for the next 3 days in Green Bay. Are you excited?
No, I ask that literally. I know some BIG football fans that live for this event. I also know just as many fans that shrug their shoulders and say “meh”.
Maybe that stems from almost everything aside from admission, is very expensive. Sure you get in for free, but that’s after forking over 50 to 100 bucks for parking, and we all know how expensive the food and beer can be at Lambeau. Oh, and if you want a seat to view the draft, that’s in the hundreds.
Some will say “it’s our one and only shot at this”. Yep, probably it is. But this is also Green Bay, Wisconsin, not New York City. Charging what one would expect in the Big Apple instead of the Big Cheesehead can turn away even hardy fans.
We’ll see. It might be a smashing success. Either way, in a few days we’re going to be counting the days to the training camp and the season opener!
