Default Lambeau Killer - a great player VS crowd rivalry is on

It's '98 ... The 4-0 Green Bay Packers have won a mind-boggling 29 straight home games at Lambeau field - including several playoff wins.

They face the underdog 4-0 Vikings on Monday Night. All the talking heads make Lambeau sound like an impossible place for road teams.

A Vikings rookie (Moss) catches 5 passes for 190 yards and 2 TD's and also draws a pass interference on a bomb..and has a long TD catch called back for holding. The Vikings destroy the Pack and shatter the Lambeau myth.

Fast forward to 2004 - Moss's last year in Minny... after a 9 catch, 150 yard performance in a Vikings win in his previous trip into Lambeau, Moss is forced to miss the '04 regular season game due to a hamstring.

The Lambeau crowd mercilessly taunts Moss from the sidelines.. even the marching band famously came onto the field and called him out.

After losing in Lambeau without Moss, the Vikings get Lambeau revenge in the playoffs - and Moss gets even with the fans.

They quickly jump out to a 17-0 lead in the 1st quarter ... leading to this famous shot of Moss and the scoreboard ...

After Moss ices the game with his 2nd TD catch in the 4th quarter - he famously pretends to moon the crowd. Everyone's seen that - no need for clip.

This is followed up with an epic post game rant.

And the cherry on top comes after Moss is fined for the pretend moon - where he tells someone in the parking lot after practice "Next time I might shake my dick at them"

In Moss's return to Lambeau off the 6 year layoff, we can only hope he does catch a TD late to ice it - and he does shake his dick at the Lambeau crowd after Favre pulls a cell phone out of his pocket - takes a pic and texts it to Jenn Sterger. I realize that might draw a fine larger than James Harrison's - and get flagged for "excessive demonstration" ... but one can hope.
