Pre-Super Bowl Album

..........So I know you’re all probably waiting for a new video this morning / evening, depending on where you are. And I’d love to bring you one. I’m sorry to say though that I have to take a break otherwise I’ll fall in a heap before tomorrow even comes! So what I’ve decided to do tonight, because I’ve wanted to this for a few days, is put together an album of some of the pics I have taken since leaving Sydney to this evening. Though this requires some work too, it’s take about a 1/4 the time to upload photos as it does the videos.
Is that a cop-out? I hope not. But tonight I do need my beauty sleep. Tomorrow is going to be the mother of all days… for everyone, no matter where you are in this world.
The first pic is the boys and I at the departure gate 2 minutes before I left.
And below is my darling wife and I, 3 minutes before i left!
Working hard on the plane
Almost to LA
On the American Airlines plane, looking at the Qantas one that got me here!
Snow over Dallas on approach
Made ot to DFW, this was after I changed out of my shorts and flip-flops
Green Bay or Dallas. Totally unexpected!
And again,
What does a truck have to do with the Super Bowl you might ask? Nothing. But look at this thing. Now I know where the idea for Hot Wheels came from!!!
Assuming you watched the last video you’ll know who Thomas is. Hope you have a great day at the SB mate
Friends at the Great Wolf Lodge
You know who these guys are! St Vince and the original Titletown Towel Man
Corey from Cheesehead TV and Steve “The Owner” Tate
Super Bowl signs on the Tom Landry Highway
First look at Cowboys Stadium from afar
The Wisconsin Governator - Scott Walker
Awesome sign at J.Gilligans Bar and Grill - Packer Rally Sat 5th
Mark and I at J.Gilligans
Crowd at the Packer Rally - At least the ones on this side of the lot!
Packer Merchandise stand 1 of about 4 at the same party
The Rookie, from WDUZ - 1075 and 1400 The Fan! I listen to these guys on my way to work back home through my phone. 4-6 weeknights just happens to be 9-11am the following day for me
These guys yelled “Go Packers” from their window as they drove past me. We started a conversation, as we were driving and I agreed to forget my plans for going to Fort Worth and follow them the Sherlock’s Bar instead. I’m glad i did!
And that takes us from Sydney to tonight. I don’t know how many pics I’ll take tomorrow. I’d say it’d be a few though! I’m off to bed, G’night.

Thanks for sharing your wonderful pictures. The boys have gotten so big since you were here in Green Bay...and Kelly is as beautiful as ever. Sorry we didn’t get to connect in Dallas this week before I left, but you can live the dream for me! I hope you have an amazing Super Bowl Sunday and GO PACKERS!

Inspirational stuff.
As a 17 year long Packer fan living on the North NSW Coast, with two kids. Your blog has me asking one question.
Why didn’t I think of this!
Fingers crossed we win.

A truly touching story, brought tears. I have lived in the USA all of my life and we truly take some things for granted. May God Bless you and your lovely family. America has a place for you forever, my friend.

Hey Braithy, got to do it dude. I met a couple and their daughter from Newcastle. They were sitting three rows ahead of me. Also another mate from Sydney that I haven’t seen in 10 years was there believe it or not!

YEEEESSSSSSS
Couldn’t watch the last 2 minutes, had to walk away from the TV.For me this SB was more satisfying than 97.
Proud to be an aussie cheesehead.
Wayne,looking forward to the next batch of videos from the game.
Safe trip home
