That's the same game my buddies went to. - We were up by two td's with less than a minute left. Chicago scored, recovered an onside kick, then converted a hail mary to send the game into overtime. - We lost on a tipped ball that was intercepted and returned for a td. -2001 season, I said earlier 2002. Man was that an awful game.

i've seen problems at the stadium before, fights, swearing... but you'll get that everywhere... this article mentions chicago, but if you talk to bears fans, they tell ya the same thing, most people are good natured, but you get your bad eggs... and it's the same thing there, fighting, swearing, etc...
i have personally never been in soldier field, that is just based on what people have told me, i actually plan on making my first trip in there next season when the browns roll in, hopefully with a better team.
I'm a season ticket holder for the Bears (my buddy is the Bears fan). I've seen a fight or "almost fight" in our section most games. We sandwich people that sell their seats online every game. Most of the time, it's to the opposing fans. So I get an earful of some nasty comments (as well as peanuts from the top rows). With that being said, everyone's mostly calm.
I can't speak for the official Bears parking lots since they're crazy expensive and impossible to get passes for. And plus, non-ticket holders can't get into those lots (new rule they have for this year). So, we park in this garage that lets us grill, drink and invite guests that aren't going to the game for $40.
I don't really notice a difference in people in each stadium. CBS and Solider Field are the same when it comes to the percentages of nice people, jerks, drunks, familes, loud opposing fans and quick-triggered security people. And Chicago boo's their QB's too. 
a lot of bears fans tell me that soldier field is nothing compared to some of the other stadiums they have gone into...
i think one guy made the trip to philly a few years ago and vowed to never go back, it was that bad. and most of it wasn't directed at him, just how people were going about themselves.

I give the security at CBS today 2 thumbs down  for how long it took them to allow the fans to enter the game today. Did half of the employees call off or something? I got to the gate almost a half hour before kickoff and didnt get inside to see the scoreboard until there was 6 minutes to go in the first quarter. In those cold conditions. Ive been to the gate plenty of times around that time and didnt have to wait that dang long. There wasnt even that many fans at the game today. At least I have a long time to forgive them before I decide to buy tickets next year. If they made me wait like that every time I went to the game, Id quit going.
