Packer Nation

Went to the Packer shareholder meeting Thursday.  Coming on the heels of the settlement between the  owner's group and the player's union - the timing was perfect.
And the weather was too.

Lambeau Field was filled to about a quarter capacity.  Shareholders galore.

Which according to the bylaws was more than enough to constitute a quorum.

Here are some interesting factoids: 

The Packers continue to lead the league in apparel sales.  The Packer website now leads the league in page views.  The Packers also lead the league in local annual economic impact - roughly $1,100 for every individual residing the greater Green Bay/Brown County area.  Contrasted with the Cowboys - their economic impact on the greater Dallas community is only a fifth of that.
