Fan loyalty to their team is the envy of the rest of the league. If you don't think so, think of the long, long list of people waiting for, potentially, years and years to get season tickets. Think, too, of the welcome home cele- brations that followed the 13 NFL Championship seasons (which in- clude four Super Bowls!) with tens of thousands of fans lining the streets in the heart of Wisconsin's frigid win- ters.

  • Top 10 Things to Do in Green Bay
    TOP 10 THINGS TO DO IN GREEN BAY 1) Experience the Water The natural resources of Lake Michigan, Green Bay and the Fox River are fantastic. The waters surrounding the city of Green Bay offer some of the best fishing in the Midwest. Look up one of our local charter captains or bring your own boat. There are plenty of places to launch along the Fox River. Go ahead and catch your limit! 2) Take in the History History doesn’t change, but the interesting exhibits at our museums do. Visit the National Railroad Museum, Oneida Nation Museum, Neville Public Museum or Heritage Hill State Historical Park. Learn about the area, climb aboard a train or two and see some great exhibits. 3) Be a Sports Fan Take in a Blizzard arena football game or a Gamblers junior hockey league game, or even summer college league Bullfrogs baseball game. We have something for everyone. You can’t forget a stop at the Packers Pro Shop to load up on your green and gold gear while you’re in Titletown! 4) Try Your Luck Oneida Casino offers a large variety of table games, slots, bingo and even off-track betting. Choose from the larger Main Casino and the smaller Mason Street Casino location. Gaming is open around the clock so you can fit the fun in any time of day. You’ll love their onsite dining and lounges. 5) Live Entertainment The shows at the Weidner Center for the Performing Arts, the historic Meyer Theatre, the Oneida Casino and the Resch Center can tickle your funny bone, surround you with sweet melodies, and just plain entertain.
