I was at a wedding at Lambeau the day before.   (since the game was in Minny).  The couple was big Packer fans.  They set up a few venues in the Concourse overlooking the field on off weekends.  We watched the game with a bunch of Packer fans at a bar across the parking lot from Lambeau on Sunday.  It was pretty silent after that hit.  To hear Packer fans talk about it after..for years..it was the worst hit ever.  There were bounty calls on Barr. The NFL even changed the rule for applying body weight to the unsportsmanlike penalty after because of that play.  It's still an issue if you bring it up with Packer fans..lol.

Yep, the Barr tackle on Rodgers was a big deal in Packerland. They were traumatized all that year and for a good while after. I've got so many Packer fan relatives and the pure hatred of Anthony Barr from that point on was red hot, lol. 

If you cut open a Packer fan to see the rings like a tree, you can see the damage back in the 2017 year Wink

I've lived in Wisconsin for 25 years now.  Packer fans are whiny, entitled crybabies.  Also, never believe them if they try to dismiss you with the "Our REAL rivals are the Bears, sniff sniff" bullshit.  Get them to be honest (just talking to them without revealing you're a Viking fan is easiest) and they hate the Vikings more than anything in the world.  The Bears are a distant second.   Mainly because we're the one team in the North that has consistently fucked up some of their seasons.
