Green Bay Packers IQ - The Ultimate Test of True Fandom (Paperback)


In terms of population the city of Green Bay is barely a blip on the map compared to sports markets like New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Miami, Detroit, Dallas and Indianapolis. Even Jacksonville, Florida-home of the hapless Jaguars-has a population eight times greater than Green Bay. So how do you explain 70,000-plus fans at Lambeau Field for every Packers home game? It's pretty simple. This "blip on the map" city has an address that rivals Times Square. Welcome to Titletown, USA. The Packers own more championships than any other team in professional football. The franchise claims legendary names like Lambeau, Lombardi and Nitschke as its own. Green Bay might be home to mere thousands, but there are millions more who live and breathe in the realm of cheesehead fandom. Green and gold merchandise annually ranks among the NFL's best selling. Want to buy season tickets to Lambeau? Good luck. There are more people on the waiting list than there are people living in Green Bay. This is a franchise steeped in tradition and rich in history-and all of it can be found within these pages: the great players, from Johnny Blood to Clay Matthews, Bart Starr to Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers, every title game, and the greatest moments, from the Ice Bowl to Super Bowl XXXI. Think you know Packers history? Think again. With stories from every era in team history and 350 brand new trivia questions, there's something here for every cheesehead-so test your skills, wrack your brain, it's your Green Bay Packers IQ, the ultimate test of true fandom.
