...Sure not as high as my Raiders but considering the area, it's pretty high...???:
It's expensive to be a Packers fan. A day at Lambeau is pricier than most other stadiums.

GREEN BAY - Green Bay Packers fans dig deeper than most NFL fans to attend football games at home and on the road. Lambeau Field is the ninth most expensive stadium at which to watch a game, according to a report by Sidelines.io, an online betting site.
The Packers also have the most expensive road schedule in the NFC North division, with or without factoring in the game in London ― although the NFC North itself is the fifth-most expensive among the eight divisions in the NFL.
Cost notwithstandin g, according to fans surveyed so far this season by the NFL, Lambeau Field is the best stadium at which to watch a game.
Sidelines.io shared that the average general seating ticket price at Lambeau Field was fourth-highest in the league, behind Las Vegas, San Francisco and New England. The price of beer was 15th highest, a hot dog tied for 14th with seven other teams, and parking 10th highest.
When all seats in a stadium are counted, including premium seats, however, the Packers fall to around the average NFL ticket price, which is the team's benchmark.
The average face value of Packers general seating tickets was calculated to be $128.93. Parking was $40, a beer $9.50, and a hot dog $6, for a total price of $184.43 per game. On Sunday, at the game against Dallas, hot dogs were $10 and beer, depending on size and brand, between $11 and $16.
Las Vegas' Allegiant Stadium is the most expensive place to attend a game in the NFL, propelled by it's eye-popping $100 rate for parking and $153 average ticket price, both the highest in the league. The average ticket price plus the price of parking, a 16-ounce beer and a hot dog in Las Vegas was $273.47.
The least expensive site is Arizona's State Farm Stadium, where the cost is $117.46. Arizona tickets average $84.83, parking is a mere $20 and a beer and hot dog total $12.63.
The Packers do not comment on outside financial reports, such as this or the annual Forbes value of NFL franchises story. They did say, however, that the NFL's annual Voice of the Fan Survey, which looks at live-game experiences at the league's 30 stadiums, ranked Lambeau Field No. 1 for gameday experience and No. 1 for staff and safety. Lambeau was second in arrivals and departures on game day, according to Aaron Popkey, Packers director of public affairs.
"To have our gameday staff be highly rated, that’s a credit to all the ushers," Popkey said.
The Packers ranked fifth overall for the 2021 season. The 2022 results are through the mid-point of the season.
