"Bambi, Bambi, look! Did you see it? That one! Hahahaha!" Logan sat on the seat of the team bus and saw the bustling scene outside through the window. There were so many unexpected surprises that he couldn't bear to He couldn't help but hit Lu Ke with his shoulder, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, and began to yell, "'Bambi, don't worry, we will defeat you, gently', haha! 'Gentlely', the cold humor of this slogan It was so much fun.”
Whenever arriving at an away game, you can always see the home fans trying their best to "welcome" the visiting team players, cursing, picking on, ridiculing, ridiculing, complaining, etc., etc., there are all kinds of strange things, including Candlestick Stadium. , racking their brains to try to show off their power to the visiting team, and declare forcefully and forcefully that they are the masters of this stadium. This seems to have become a practice in major professional leagues.
The more sworn enemies are in the same district, the more intense the "welcome" means——
Just look at the six matchups between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers in the past three seasons. Whether it is Candlestick Stadium or Century Chain Stadium, it is a hell level for the visiting team. Every minute and every second is suffering and losing. If the ball is not lost, it has nothing to do with the outcome of the game. The home momentum must be in place.
Same today!
Facing the single-game elimination system of the playoffs, Green Bay Packers fans must also make full use of their home court advantage and put as much pressure on the San Francisco 49ers as possible; but take a closer look at the content of those slogans, and things start to happen again It gets more subtle: Is this... flirting?
Lu Ke was awakened by Logan. He rubbed his eyes, turned his head and looked through the window, and then saw Green Bay fans wearing green jerseys, spread out in a mighty way, like a dense and vast primitive Like a forest, the streets of the entire Green Bay town were blocked with water.
If it is the home court of the Arizona Cardinals or Seattle Seahawks, the San Francisco 49ers team bus driver will increase the speed as much as possible to get the players into the locker room as soon as possible to avoid exposing the players too much. Under the malicious provocation of the home fans.
Today, the driver of the team bus slowly slowed down. Even though the road ahead was clear, he did not move forward in a hurry. The players could clearly see the figures of the fans outside the window, and they all pressed their cheeks against the window, overjoyed. Watching such a "welcome along the road".
The scene is somewhat joyful.
"Bambi, don't cry when you lose."
"Sorry, man, victory is not yours!"
"The strong meet! The brave wins!"
"We respect the Niners, so we have to beat San Francisco!"
"Welcome to visit Lamborghini Stadium, but let the victory stay here!"
"Ryan Baldwin is with us!"
All kinds of strange support signs are spread out in front of you. The various slogans are dazzling, but more importantly, the fans who hold the slogans high welcome the arrival of the San Francisco 49ers with smiles and declare Green Bay with their eyes. The Packers were determined to win, and you could faintly feel the tension before the war in the air, but there was no hostility or hatred. Instead, there was an aura of sympathy.
Unknowingly, the corners of his mouth also rose, and then his blood boiled. The fighting spirit that longed to stand on the court and compete head-on to determine the outcome was raising his head, interpreting the core meaning of competitive sports vividly, it seemed that he could I can faintly hear the horn sounding!
Lu Ke likes the atmosphere of Lambeau Stadium because it reminds him of Candlestick Stadium - look, change is quietly taking root in the blood.
Once upon a time, Lu Ke dreamed of standing on Lambeau Field and playing on behalf of the Green Bay Packers; now, he still likes the Green Bay Packers team and these fans, but he is an out-and-out one. The Nine are loyal from blood to soul, and every cell has left a mark that belongs to the San Francisco 49ers and Candlestick Stadium.
Lamborghini Stadium is still one of Lu Ke's favorite stadiums, more because it can awaken the beautiful memories of Candlestick Stadium deep in his heart, those cheers, those supports, those enthusiasms, those perseverances and those moments, all of them. Contained in the eyes of the fans, gathered together, making the entire stadium exude a sacred light.
This is the first time in three seasons that the San Francisco 49ers have played on the road in the playoffs. Because the Seattle Seahawks defeated the St. Louis Rams in the last game, the San Francisco 49ers unfortunately fell to the "fifth seed" seat. In turn, the home court advantage is lost, which invisibly adds more uncertainties to the difficult prospects of the playoffs.
Lamborghini Stadium is obviously not a home that treats visiting teams easily. The fans' fanaticism and cold weather have made it a famous devil's home stadium in the league. After entering the playoffs in January, the cold wave in Green Bay made every team here even more enthusiastic. All teams competing must face severe tests.
The atmosphere, intensity, mentality, state, etc. of the regular season and the playoffs are inherently different. The differences between home and away games further amplify this "difference", which also adds many uncertain factors to the game. Now, the San Francisco 49ers will accept their first away test in the playoffs; at the same time, the first test is about to take place at Lambeau Field in the cold winter. For Lu Ke, this does not seem to be good news.
Just look at the slogans from Green Bay fans:
"Bambi, be careful of catching a cold."
Not only Lu Ke saw this slogan, but Crabtree and Aldon also saw it. They all ran towards Lu Ke and said gloatingly, "Bambi, have you been molested by the Green Bay fans/ Are you having fun?"
Then, the players in the team bus burst into laughter.
Lu Ke rolled his eyes speechlessly and said to Aldon, "This is the offensive team bus. You, a spy from the defensive team, are mixed in here. What's going on?"
Aldon immediately raised his hands to express surrender, "Unjust! Absolutely unjust! I was kidnapped by my uncle and the crab, okay? I am the victim!"
Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of complaints all around, and Aldon was surrounded on all sides.
"Bambi, I pray you don't get lost in the forest here in Green Bay!"
A signboard slogan came into Lu Ke's sight. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Then he realized what "Green Bay Forest" meant and burst into laughter. The complaints made by Green Bay fans were really high-level and cold. Humor, obviously, fits Lu Ke's interests very well.
he likes.
…
Under the special welcome of all the Green Bay fans, the team bus slowly stopped at the entrance of the players' tunnel at Lambeau Field, and then the San Francisco 49ers players entered the stadium one after another, preparing to adapt to the venue.
When entering the venue, the Green Bay Packers' training had just ended, and the players could be seen leaving in twos and threes. The two teams staggered together like this. Everyone said hello, even if they were not familiar with each other, they could still say hello. After saying a few words, Lu Ke saw Rogers.
Rogers, who was sweating profusely, seemed to be lost in his own thoughts. He did not walk side by side with his teammates, but walked alone. He continued to shake his helmet in his hand, looking like a middle school student who had just finished school, waving. Carrying his schoolbag, he walked home casually.
But Rogers still noticed Lu Ke. He retracted his thoughts, showed a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, took the initiative to greet Lu Ke, and gave Lu Ke a hug, "Adapting to the venue? Are you sure you didn't arrive early? Wait, let me say, Are you going to come over and spy on our tactics? That’s not kind."
In front of Lu Ke, Rogers always likes to joke, because Lu Ke does the same, "Peeping tactics are not chosen today. Today is just a little warm-up. What can you see? Or, your injury has not healed, and we are worried that we will see through it in advance." ?”
The back-and-forth of complaints made the players passing by express their disgust, and they joked one after another, "Get a room, you two, I really can't bear to look at you!"
"Are you ready?" Rogers ignored the voice next to him and looked at Lu Ke with a smile. "Green Bay in January is not San Francisco in September. Let me tell you in advance that the temperature has been cooling down in the past two days. It seems that the weather forecast said, A cold wave is approaching, and we don’t know how deep the temperature will drop. You’d better prepare in advance and get used to the venue today. When the time comes, we can have an upright confrontation. Don’t lose because I didn’t. Give you advance notice and then put all the blame on the weather.”
"Ha. Ha." Lu Ke laughed twice, "It's best to do this. If you still can't win with the help of the weather, then you will be in trouble. What should you blame?" Lu Ke paused slightly. After a moment, he raised his chin and said with an arrogant expression, "Because the opponent is too strong?"
Is this... Wang Po selling her melons and bragging about herself?
Rogers shook his head repeatedly, "I really didn't expect you to be like Bambi. When did you expand to such an extent? Be careful, it's like a water balloon, it will burst as soon as you poke it."
"Shouldn't water balloons freeze into ice in Green Bay?" Lu Ke continued.
Rogers quickly raised his arms and hugged himself tightly, and rubbed his arms exaggeratedly, "Your jokes are really getting colder and colder, and I can't even catch them anymore. Be careful that you won't have any friends in the future."
"I think cold jokes are a perfect fit for Green Bay." Lu Ke still goes his own way.
Rogers hit Lu Ke on the shoulder with his helmet, "Goodbye. Let's stop talking. Otherwise, the weather in Green Bay won't keep me alert, and your cold jokes will prevent me from playing."
The two people didn't say anything more, they just looked at each other and passed each other. Rogers headed towards the locker room, while Lu Ke came on the court to warm up. Obviously, the relaxed state of mind and the state of devotion indicate that both quarterbacks are ready to go all out. They are friends off the field and opponents on the field. They are both ready to win.
As time passed, Rogers' words were verified - or in other words, the weather forecast was finally accurate for once. Green Bay encountered a cold wave, the temperature plummeted, and then... it snowed.
