It’s 1957, and the Green Bay Packers have built a new City Stadium way out on the West side of town. They produced this promotional booklet to inform the public about just what this new football facility includes — and to sell tickets (imagine!).
Look at those ticket prices! Our current end zone seats would’ve cost $6.75 at the time of the stadium’s opening. Now, just move that decimal point over and the current cost per seat is $67.
Remember, this is back when you still had to sell folks on the advantages of purchasing season tickets in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
We’re sold on the idea of “ample parking,” so we’ll stop by the Packers’ ticket office and get those 1957 season tickets today!
