We’re continuing on with our photo galleries from Ray Nitschke Field in Green Bay, Wis. After a day off (from physical contact, at least) on Monday, the Packers were back at it on Tuesday morning at 10:15 a.m.
It was a much more pleasant day, weather-wise, than had been the case for the weekend practices. It was breezy and cooler with less humidity, and while some fans found it too cool to go without a jacket, the players had to really enjoy it.
The folks who came early have already snagged a seat. Other fans are waiting to watch the players arrive on the bikes. At this time, it’s relatively quiet and peaceful at the Packers’ practice field.
Pins in a map of the United States indicate where fans have come from to visit Green Bay and watch the Packers.
It’s on display at the mobile Visitors Center behind the Ray Nitschke Field bleachers.
