Minnesota Vikings Pro Bowl wide receiver Adam Thielen could care less about the history surrounding Lambeau Field. He thinks it's a dump.
Thielen spoke about the home of the Green Bay Packers during an interview with GOLF.com's Subpar podcast last week. He said Lambeau is his favorite place to play because of the Vikings-Packers rivalry and the atmosphere, but said the stadium itself is quite outdated:
“The whole stadium is not nice,” Thielen said, via B/R Gridiron. “There's nothing fancy about it. Like, it's bleacher seats.”
Of course, the outdated feel is what makes Lambeau Field so iconic. The same thing holds true for other professional sports stadiums like Wrigley Field and Fenway Park.
Packers fans could probably care less what Thielen thinks. They have more pressing matters to worry about.
Thielen and the Vikings will be after Green Bay's NFC North title. That pursuit would become a whole lot easier if Aaron Rodgers is not in the picture.
There is still a lot of uncertainty as far as Rodgers is concerned. Many reports have stated he has very little desire to return to Green Bay. However, Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst and president Mark Murphy have both been adamant the team will not trade Rodgers and envision him as the quarterback in the coming years.
Minnesota likely wouldn't mind Rodgers being shipped out of the NFC North. It would surely make trips to Lambeau Field a little bit easier for Thielen and the Vikings, though the star wideout might be hearing it from Packers fans after these comments.
