For Lambeau Field, the main customers will be NFL fans, and more specifically Packers fans. Currently, the majority of NFL fans are male, approximately 65% (Eby, 2013). It will be important to try and reach some more women in advertising to try and grow the fanbase of the NFL. Around 71% of NFL fans are over 35 years old (Eby, 2013). Therefore, younger fans should be targeted in ad campaigns more. Obviously it is important to keep the audience you have, but growing the fanbase is also huge. If…
matchup between the undefeated Green Bay Packers -- my team -- and the San Diego Chargers. In closer proximity was my feast. Nachos piled high with cheese, sour cream, jalapenos, chicken and salsa; cheese curds, a Wisconsin favorite and a tall glass of Angry Orchard hard cider. I set my self up dressed in my old-school, long-sleeved Ray Nietzsche jersey in honor of the throwback jerseys the Pack was wearing from the 1930's and 40's. Soon kick off was upon us. Green Bay kicked off the game…
The Green Bay Packers are currently short in talent at wide receiver with starter Jordy Nelson out for the season with a torn ACL. Their other wideout, five-year pro Randall Cobb, is also hurting, but he is reportedly keen on playing for Mike McCarthy on week 1 against the Chicago Bears. The 25-year-old Cobb, who suffered a shoulder sprain during the Packers third preseason game versus the Philadelphia Eagles, is officially listed at LP (Limited Participation in Practice) but he vowed not to…
Under the current bylaws of the NFL, no team can sell stock or public ownership in their franchise. Unless you are the Green Bay Packers. The Packers are the only team permitted to sell stock, because they were already selling stock before the NFL implemented the rule against it. This creates an enormous unfair advantage to the Packers over their competition in the NFL, and rule change needs to occur (Lariviere, 2011). The Packers have only publically sold shares of stock five times in the…
On August 26th, the San Francisco 49ers hosted the Green Bay Packers for a preseason exhibition game. Normally, there is little attention given to these games because they are played with the sole purpose of evaluating the progress of players before the regular season begins. This game, however, ended up receiving worldwide attention for something that happened before the game had even started. Colin Kaepernick, the current backup-QB for the 49ers, made headlines by choosing not to stand during…
and one of the most historic stadiums in the NFL. They also have a ton of great people and great games under their belt. Thats pretty amazing.

The Packers have the most championships in NFL history. They have everything from NFC championships to Super Bowl championships. They have four Super Bowl championships and three NFC…
starter. So what’s the deal with No. 12? Could it be that the Green Bay receivers just aren’t open? Many a color analyst noted during 2015 Packers games that the receivers just couldn’t separate from the opposition’s secondary. This was partly due to the fact…
scored the only touchdown of his career in his final game on a 5-yard interception return. He also kicked three extra points in the first two games of the 1931 season. As of his next to last season, Woodin hadn’t missed a practice in nine years, the Green…
Lambeau Leap is a celebratory jump into the stands located near the end zone after a Packers's touchdown scored at Lambeau Field by the Packer who scored the touchdown. Lambeau Field is an outdoor stadium located in Green Bay, Wisconsin; it serves as the home field for the Green Bay Packers. Building on the stadium was finished in 1957 and served to replace the old City Stadium. In 1965, the field would be renamed to Lambeau Field as a tribute to the franchie's former long-time coach, player,…
Rather than run the ball, Wilson threw an interception to safety Malcolm Butler in the end zone and cost the Seahawks the game. Green Bay coach Vince Lombardi was hoisted on the shoulders of his players and carried off the field after winning the Super Bowl. At the end of his career, it was the last game he coached for the Packers. It’s time honoured tradition. “Gatorade showers” or…
