Lambeau's changing landscape: The small-neighborhood aura around Lambeau Field is slowly changing, but some are still keeping the unique atmosphere alive.
He mentioned that he doesn't rent the place out. Wow, he could make a boatload doing so.

Speaking of the area surrounding a football stadium, I recall the Los Angeles Coliseum, in Jefferson Park, South Central Los Angeles. My parents went to Rams games in the late 70's, and I went to Raiders games in the early 90's, and I go to USC games now (sometimes with my parents), but the area surrounding it seems to never change. It is so inviting, it seems to be telling you to come, that all people are brothers once inside that magical stadium.

He most likely has all the money that he wants. He and his family fly in for each home game from Atlanta, that should tell you something, tickets for that should run north of $2000 per trip - THAT assumes that they fly coach, which they probaly do not. It is possible that he owns his an airplane that can seat four or more people.

I know this story is a few months old, but I still thought it was cool. Click and enlarge the photo on the right of the guy in the Favre jersey and tell me you don't dream about owning that place and having that view from your deck!
