I'm a fictional person who experienced the Packers 1939 Championship win. Follow my story and others on Dec 8th at #mke39.

Got back from dinner and begin to get ready for the ‘morrow. Hopefully Walter doesn’t let the loss keep him down. #mke39

I want to bring up going to Chicago to shop, but Walter seems too distracted following the loss. #mke39

While out to eat, the waitress mentions their classic Old Fashioned. To my surprise, when I tried it, there was brandy. BRANDY, in an Old Fashioned. Unbelievable #mke39

When we get back to the hotel I’ll suggest getting something to eat to take his mind off the loss. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

Walter continues to rant about the loss the whole trip back to the hotel. I just tune him out, glad to be out of that wind. #mke39

“27 – 0. Only other shutout was the 0 – 0 tie against the Redskins. But in that game, we at least had a defense,” Walter tells me dejectedly. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

After the final whistle, the Packers fans stormed the field giving us time to steal away. #mke39

This sport will never eclipse baseball. Who wants to be outside in the middle of December?!?!?!? #mke39

Approaching the final quarter, I look to Walter as if to ask if we can leave. Begrudgingly he shakes his head. Stubborn, but loyal. #mke39

Walter looks distraught as the Giants turned the ball over yet again. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

I know I said that there seems to be little fashion sense in this part of the country, but they do seem to have some lovely furs. #mke39

The Giants have to kick off to begin the second half. “Defense will get a stop. Just need the offense to move the ball. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

It’s as if my wonderful husband can read my mind and bought me another hot chocolate during halftime. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

Dairy Bowl. I suppose it’s a fitting name. I can smell it from here. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

“Only down 7 at halftime. This is anyone’s game; just need to stop turning the ball over on offense. Having made those field goals would have been bully too,” Walter tells me. I couldn’t care. I just want to be warm. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

Boy howdy, these clouds are sure skipping across the sky with all this wind. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

Drat… I finished my hot chocolate. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

Apparently, the Giants threw an interception just after a big play which took away sure points. #mke39

[Mary Birch @MaBirch39]

My daydreaming is interrupted when I hear Walter’s shout drowned out by a loud cheer from the crowd. I guess the Giants did something bad. #mke39
