As a Packers fan and Green Bay native, I hate you both. Even the fans. I can't even describe the level of loathing that comes just from knowledge that one is a Viking or Bear fan. Same here I won't even talk to the packers fans at my church during the season. I even hate everyone and the state themselves in wisconsion and illinois. Detriot is just a team of losers no reason to hate them What is wrong with you guys? Football is a game (a glorified game, but still a game), and you are going to hate people that you dont know anything about and have never met just because they root for a different team? I find that incredibly immature and childish. FYI, I'm a Ravens fan, I really don't like the Steelers but I sure as hell don't hate all Steelers fans. I think it takes some context of living here. Minnesota and Wisconsin are rivals in EVERYTHING. NCAA Football, NCAA Hockey, NFL, MLB (pre-transfer), etc. And in Wisconsin we refer to Illinois residents as FIBs. I live in Madison now, so I do know "FIB" and am surrounded by Wisconsin and GB fans. I see how it can be fun to be a serious sports fan, but I still think everyone needs to be able to take a step back every now and then and realize fans of other sports teams aren't terrible people just because they grew up or live somewhere else. Vikings fans are incredibly disrespectful when they come to Green Bay. It's not like this vitriol was spawned out of nowhere. The Bears are our traditional rivals, but our disdain for Vikings fans comes from their behavior in our hometown. Even Bears fans are more respectable despite their annoying habits and self-importance. Somehow I feel I will be unable to change your mind, but judging an entire category of people based on the actions of a few, especially when you are only looking at the behavior of a few people in an emotionally charged atmosphere in which everyone is drinking heavily, is pretty foolish. For every Bear fan who fits your stereotypes I bet I can find at least one who doesn't. As with any prejudice against a group of people based on stereotypes, it's going to be wrong most of the time, but people will be heavily influenced by their confirmation bias and the prejudiced beliefs will persist. The case of football fan prejudice seems particularly silly to me. Hang out at the stadium bars in GB the next time the Vikes come visit. You'll understand then. Other fans are respectful and enjoy our drunken revelry, Vikings fans are obnoxious with the sole intent of agitating. Every time I hear that f'ing horn blow outside Lambeau I want to steal it away and smash it down that fans throat. Sure, it's a small subgroup of Vikings fans. But they are also the biggest Vikings fans and I know seeing the Vikings lose crushes their souls. And I've yet to meet a Vikings fan I like (bias or not). You act like Green Bay fans are respectable. I live in Minnesota. Trust me, they're not. We have a lot of them here. Only because being a Viking fan is that insufferable. I never said we were "more respectable". I just explained why I hate Vikings fans. I'll be the first to admit I won't hold the door open for some schmuck wearing a Favre Viking jersey. I'm not pretending to take the high road in this one, so don't misrepresent me as being hypocritical.
As I said, both sides act childish and immature... But if that's your cup of tea, go on bickering I guess...

Ahh damn so close AP  You really should have had that record... I will never fully understand why they take you out on third downs... The most important down but lets leave our best player out of the game for it... Fucking great logic....
I know he has to come out at some point to catch his breathe but why on third down???? Da fuck? If they have him in on one or two of those and hand him the ball the record is his...
Edit: Also I think the Vikings could be a much better team with overall better play calling... Seriously 2 yard out pass on 3rd and 11? and they did it more then once? The whole game I was getting frustrated at the coaching staff... and I'm not even a Vikings fan... Get Peterson a QB and a half decent offensive coordinater and they have a damn good team!

yeah seriously, it's really disappointing because the record was easily in his hands. i guess there's always next season

Was at his high school graduation (he went to school with my cousin) and I'm not surprised. Reaaaaaly classy (read: sheltered and rich) place, probably costs more than my college tuition.

Now take that feeling and streeeeech it out for decades and decades.
congratulations you are a vikings fan.
Like I can't even enjoy this win because I'm already feeling how bad its going to be when we lose next week. and I can't even feel good about the prospect of winning again because I know that I'll get hope that we can go even deeper and we'll lose in a horrible way that makes us feel bad. I can't even imagine going to the super bowl because everyone knows how bad those are for Minnesota and I don't want to witness another loss like that so close to the last 2 times we even got near (and should really have gone to) the super bowl.

Or it could be that half of Packers fans are bandwagon fans with no self-respect.
Or it could be that the TC area is actually a decent place to live.

Right. Bandwagon fans. We sold out a stadium of 50,000-70,000 since 1960, despite being in a city that barely had that many people. "In the 24 seasons from 1968 to 1991, the Packers had only five seasons with a winning record (above .500), one being the shortened 1982 strike season. They appeared in the playoffs twice during that period, with a record of 1–2." Yet we always sell out. The Vikes can't even do that.
Packers fans are one of the most dedicated fanbases in all of sports. Name a single other franchise that has built a stadium off of fan donations.
