The Ashwaubenon Department of Public Safety Offers Inside" Information to Help Football Fans Enjoy the Playoff Experience!

(PRWEB) January 6, 2004 --Its true that the majority of pre-game and post-game traffic and pedestrian activity occurs in Ashwaubenon and Sundays playoff game will present some challenges to fans if theyre not prepared. Public Safety Officers in Ashwaubenon want fans to enjoy their visit by making them aware of what to expect. By making a game plan," fans can avoid problems and delays in the Lambeau Field area.

Pre-Game
   The two solutions for fans are patience and early arrival. The warmer-than-average weather with an absence of snow means more tailgating that will start earlier and finish later. Any fans arriving this weekend should consider finding private parking lots that accept pre-paid reservations and make one. Many lots are available north and south of Lombardi Avenue and often include tailgating privileges and restrooms.
   A possible bottleneck will be in the immediate stadium area where parking is not prepaid. Ticket holders who park in stadium lots will have an extra cash transaction to make at the parking lot entrance. This is expected to back up traffic a bit.
   Increased stadium security means fans will encounter searches and more stringent rules for carry-ins. Fans can help keep waits to a minimum by keeping prohibited and oversized items away. Attempts to bring in such items results in more searches, confiscations, and delays.
Fans can avoid becoming fraud victims by purchasing game day tickets from brokers with Village permits. These legitimate brokers are easily identified by their issued permits and picture IDs. These friendly scalpers" are located on Packer Drive at Oneida Street on the east side of Lambeau Field.
For fans who have already purchased tickets from a broker or from an online auction site can compare theirs with official images of real tickets at Ashwaubenon Public Safetys official website at www.ashpublicsafety.com.

Post-Game
   Delays can be expected following the game, especially when the Packers win. Tailgating areas and local establishments will remain busy later than usual. Fans should anticipate this and check their exit routes before becoming part of a traffic jam. Motorists caught in post-game traffic with no idea where they are or where to go often flag busy traffic officers who can only assist as they can. Route planning can help avoid more delays.
   Enjoy the game and remember to keep a sober, licensed driver available
