By then, the question of the Packers' staying in Green Bay was becoming acute. While City Stadium's inadequacy had been apparent for some time, the 1950s saw more and more opponents began asking for their games against the Packers to be played at County Stadium, which was almost double the size of City Stadium. League officials gave the Packers an ultimatum–get a new stadium or move to Milwaukee full-time. Buoyed in part by a strong finish to the 1955 season, the people of Green Bay overwhelmingly passed a bond issue for a brand-new 32,000-seat stadium, naming it New City Stadium. The new stadium was dedicated in a game against the Chicago Bears. The Packers won the game, 21–17, but finished the season 3–9.
