Titletown (1997)

This commemorative synopsis of the Packers’ 1996 season was published along with the others in February 1997 to celebrate the Wolf-Holmgren championship team. Brought to us by the fine folks at the Green Bay Press-Gazette, Titletown: The Unforgettable Story of the Green Bay Packers' Road to Super Bowl XXXI is a must add to your Packers collection. Besides summaries of each game in that season, there are also interesting stories on things such as the replacement of the Lambeau Field sod prior to the playoff games. Looking back, it was a great time to be a fan. 

New sod in January!
