Want to Play in Green Bay?

Though we’re not ready to even think about stopping the celebration of our 2010 World Champion Green Bay Packers, we’ll take a break to look back in history, as we always do. This publication is from 1985, and it was used to convince potential players that playing and living in Wisconsin was a great choice. There are some fine photos of the old Packers facilities — including their rarely-pictured “The Barn” indoor practice building — as it was during the Forrest Gregg coaching era. It’s also neat to see how they used former players to sell the franchise on future players.
