Officers at the gates may use their discretion regarding any items they deem unfit for entry.
Bag Restrictions for Lambeau Field
If you plan to bring a bag into the stadium it must meet the size requirements, and it must be made of clear plastic. Ticket King has clear plastic bags upon request, should you need one that fits the size restrictions. Visit our Green Bay office before kickoff on game day. The clear (gallon-size) bag must be no larger than 12 X 6 X 12 inches. Small clutch purses are allowed into Lambeau Field, as long as they are no larger than 4.5 X 6.5 inches.
Carry-In Restrictions at Packers Games

Allowable Items On Packers Game Day
Fans can bring extra layers of clothing or blankets, as long as they fit them into the clear bag, or carry it loosely through the gates for inspection. Cell phones and small binoculars are allowed. Battery-operated clothing is permitted for cold-weather games. Fans can also bring in stadium seats, the type that is no wider than eighteen inches and fit squarely onto the bleachers. No armrests are allowed on the stadium seats. Since Lambeau Field is mostly made up of benches that are sized for people whose average stature was smaller two generations ago, the Packers organization adheres to these carry-in and bag policies to keep the football experience close to a theme that is more traditional when compared to other NFL stadiums. Expect to get to know the person sitting next to you on a stadium bench, as it’s a tight fit at Packers games.

The Bucks are one of the the hottest teams in the NBA this season and fans are heading to home games to get in on some World Champion basketball action. There is nothing like seeing the Bucks at the Fiserv Forum. The venue is one of the newest in the NBA. When attending a Milwaukee Bucks game, there are certain rules fans need to follow. Ticket King is happy to break down the latest Fiserv Forum Bag Policy for 2022.
Oddly enough, there is a “No Bag Policy” for fans attending games at the Fiserv Forum. Leave the purses and totes at home. You can bring in a “wallet” as long as it’s no larger than 4″ x 6″ x 1″. Are there exceptions to this policy? Only for diaper bags and bags needed “due to medical necessity.” Those two exceptions (diaper and medical bags) will be subject to x-ray upon entry. This policy is starting to become the norm around most NBA stadiums. It’s just best to leave your personal items at home when heading to the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.

Every sports stadium or music venue has its own carry-in, or “bag policy” that must be followed. American Family Field in Milwaukee is no different. Whether it’s a Brewers game or a concert, there are rules you need to follow before you enter the venue.
For people looking to bring a small bag or purse, the maximum dimensions must be no larger than 9″ X 5″ X 2″. Clear bags are allowed and their size cannot be larger than 12″ X 6″ X 12″. Smaller clear bags like one gallon and zip lock style are allowed.
For people bringing diaper bags, there are allowances for size, but please check before entering the venue. Folks with ADA or medical concerns can also bring larger bags. It’s always best to follow what the event staff advises during the fan entry and screening process. Check with the venue before you depart.
Keep in mind that no backpacks, drawstring bags, tote bags, laptop bags, soft-sided coolers, purses, or gym bags are allowed at any time, no matter the size.

Ever since the Milwaukee Brewers moved to the National League in 1998, one group of baseball fans found a new venue to visit. That group would be Chicago Cubs fans. For 25 seasons, the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs have built up a divisional rivalry that comes with a twist. Cubs fans love to travel to Milwaukee for the Cubs vs. Brewers road games. With just 89 miles between Wrigley Field and American Family Field, it’s only natural that thousands upon thousands of Cubs fans would make the trip up to Milwaukee every time the Cubbies play there. After all, Milwaukee’s ballpark has ample parking, fantastic options for tailgating, easier access to the ballpark, and all the amenities that come with a modern climate-controlled stadium with a roof. Add all that to the fact that it’s easier for many fans to drive to and from Milwaukee to see a Cubs game than it is for them to see Chicago play at home. It’s only natural for their fans to call American Family Field “Wrigley North.”
For 2023, the Cubs will face the Brewers on the road in seven games. Those seven games are spread out over two separate series. The first series right around mid.- season, July 3-6. The second series is sure to be a big one. The Brewers host the Cubs at the end of the regular season, September 29-October 1. Ticket King has great seats for all seven games in 2023. Click the link above and pick your game before it sells out.
The Green Bay Packers will face the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Divisional round of the playoffs this Saturday night. Packers playoff tickets for that game are in high demand as both high profile teams have fans that travel. Earlier this season, the Packers defeated the 49ers with a last second field goal. These two teams have faced each other many times in playoff situations. Aaron Rodgers & Co. will need to be firing on all cylinders in order to win in Green Bay. Playoff tickets for the game are going fast, now the the opponent and game time has been announced.
The 49ers upset the Dallas Cowboys on the road last night, in a game that featured numerous penalties and a controversial situation involving the referees spotting the ball as time ran out. Dallas fans will no doubt find the fault completely on the shoulders of the officiating, while ignoring the fact that Dak Prescott handed the ball to his center after running a quarterback screen with just fifteen seconds to play. That play, and the mistake by Prescott, left no time on the clock for a spiked ball and hail Mary attempt. The 49ers took an early lead in that game and just held on. The Cowboys have the entire off-season to mull over what happened, but their focus should be on the fact that they were the most penalized team to make the playoffs this season.
Packers fans would have preferred to face those penalty heavy Cowboys. Will the cold January weather favor the Packers this coming Saturday night? It certainly can’t hurt a team like Green Bay that is used to playing cold weather games. Should the Packers win on Saturday night, the NFC Championship game will take place at Lambeau Field the next weekend.
The 2021 Green Bay Packers regular season started off with a fizzle. The team took on the New Orleans Saints, with Aaron Rodgers sitting out the entire preseason. That was a game where the script was flipped and Jameis Winston threw five touchdown passes. Green Bay managed just three points against a Saints defense that was unstoppable. Packers fans were stunned. Aaron Rodgers asked us all to once again calm down and wait for better results. Green Bay went on to win the next seven games. He was correct, as the team shot up to lead the NFC North and never looked back. Yesterday, the Packers edged out the Baltimore Ravens and clinched the NFC North title once again. They are on their way in the playoffs, hoping for the first seed in the NFC. That would mean home field advantage throughout the playoffs and a bye week to start. Those same Saints that hobbled the Packers in week number one, managed to hold Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers scoreless in a Sunday Night game, currently placing the Packers at the top of the NFC. Will that lead hold? Only the Browns, Vikings and Lions have a chance to topple the Pack before the playoffs begin. At the same time, key starters are looking to get back into the game just as the playoffs begin. It’s sure to be an exciting playoff run. Packers tickets for the playoffs are now on sale.
Rodgers Up For 2021 MVP
Aaron Rodgers is a leading candidate for Most Valuable Player, and if he keeps up his weekly performance he just might get that fourth nod from the powers that be. It’s doubtful that his goal is that title. It’s all about that Lombardi trophy at this time in his career. Could this be the team that brings that trophy back home to Green Bay? Many signs point to yes.
First, we have to consider the fact that the Packers offensive line is strung together with string and chewing gum right now. At kickoff last night, there was a third string player protecting Rodgers in the pocket. Billy Turner, David Bakhtiari, Josh Myers, were all out once again. When the last seconds ticked off with the Packers taking the victory formation for the last play, Rodgers had been sacked three times that afternoon. The line is holding up. The defense is a top ten force. The offense does give up points in the first quarter of just about every game, but it seems like it’s just a matter of making defensive adjustments. Green Bay outscores their opponents in the second and third quarters by a country mile.
With the playoffs a lock, it’s now down to where the team will land in the NFL bracket. The Buccaneers will surely right the ship after the shutout. The Dallas Cowboys might be the sleeper team that runs the table in the playoffs. The Cardinals were hot out of the gate, but have stumbled a bit in the past few weeks. It’s great to see the Packers in the playoffs once again.
