[QUOTE="Obi1, post: 197967, member: 203"] I MOVED to this country with my parents in September 1969. I knew nothing of the language, culture, people, etc. I distinctly remember what it was like in the fall with the football season and all... I LEARNED to be a Packer fan and having had a fascination with history even as a kid, I learned all about the Packers, the dynasty, Lombardi, Starr, Nitzschke, et al... Though I had no idea of the Packers of the 60s other than what I read, heard, and what I saw in 1969-1972, I could only imagine what they must have been like since many of those players weere playing into the early 70's. Then came the 70's and the struggles and I wondered how great this team must have been at one time to still have that kind of following... I guess I really didn't know any different... I thought that fandom was a part of the American culture... And it is! For the Packers fans. [/QUOTE]
