**Green Bay, WI** – Lambeau Field is set to transform into a sea of white this Thursday night as the Green Bay Packers prepare to face off against the Washington Commanders at 7:15 p.m. CT. Fans are encouraged to participate in a “Winter Warning” game day and wear white attire to create a “whiteout” effect in the stadium. The Packers players will be joining in on the fun, donning their white alternate helmets, jerseys, pants, and socks for the primetime matchup.
Adding to the excitement, pregame festivities will include special lighting elements during player introductions, with stadium lights going dark before a dazzling display of spotlights and flashing lights. Fans are urged to arrive early and be in their seats by 7 p.m. CT to experience the full effect.
