It all started in 1919 when Curly Lambeau and George Calhoun had a vision. According to the reports, “Lambeau, a shipping clerk for the Indian Packing Company, convinced his employer to donate money for the uniforms and, in the process, lent the nickname “Packers” to the team.” Backed by the Indian Packing Company, the Packers took their first steps toward greatness, agreeing to “sponsor a local pro football team,” and in 1921, they joined the NFL. A small-town team from Green Bay, Wisconsin, finding its place in the big leagues ”“ sounds impossible, right? But that's what makes the Packers' story so special.

Lambeau Field, their iconic stadium, is more than just a place to play football. It's where history was made, where legends like Bart Starr and Vince Lombardi marked their names into NFL glory.
