A friend of mine was at the game, he said there wasn't much crying going on but instead the green bay fans were actually going boo, boooo, booing the team.
He said it was a low booing as they were trying to kind of hide it.

could it have been the kind of noise that a forlorn wail into an empty liquor bottle would have produced?

The GB receivers dropped a LOT of passes. Some at fairly key points in the game. Not good...

no, not like crying in their beer but an out right, boooo booooo, not boohooo.

The mind set was. hey I'm a share holder, I have the right to voice my dissatisfaction with their performance and voice my opinion.
Thus the booing and not crying.

I heard a Sven and Ole joke regarding a raccoon. I forgot how it goes though.

I have my own joke about lutfisk. Why did the Confederate army never invade Minnesota? Because Minnesotans offered the Confederate army a plate of lutfisk.

The butcher backed up into the meat grinder and got a little behind in his work!! Makes me laugh every time!

OOOOOhhhhh good Ol' Minnesota humor! I was raised in Minnesota and moved way 3 years ago. Personally, I love hearing corny jokes. I love a good pun. And my family and friends are VERY sarcastic! When I first moved to the south everyone told me they never knew if I was being serious or if I was kidding. Really, I am kidding...mostly... and sometimes there is a small truth to my teasing, and that is the minnesota nice side...I just say everything with a big smile :-D! Truely though, I don't mean to offend, but some of my sarcastic humor might have some half truths to it...and you will probably find that often. My advice...never take anything personal and give it back.

Also, when you get in inner groups you might start to hear more racy humor. if you say something that offends you, just let them know. I do that all the time.

The best answer to this question would come from googling it but I'll try. The Moravian Church was formed in the the 1400's by John Hus and came to United States in the 1700's. They are just another Protestant Church.

In the last half century I've lived in several states and provinces and I always went to the closest Protestant Church.

Many people of course won't agree with me of course but as far as I'm concerned if you happened to wind up in a Presbyterian or Methodist church by mistake you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. This isn't true for the Baptist or Episcopalian church. In my experience they are quite a bit different.

As far as I'm concerned they all seem to proclaim the virtues of the same guy or group of people so it doesn't really matter which one anybody attends.

By the way all churches, businesses, and what have you are the same as far as the original subject of bullying goes. They all have their elite group that get away with anything especially bullying in one form or another. I'm just still pretty fresh from my round with the Moravian Church but they are the same as any any other company.

Thats kind of surprising to me, i didn't think Packer fans were like that.
I was also pretty surprised at how many Giants fans were at Lambeau lol it was cool hearing the "Lets go Giants" chants
