[QUOTE="Pkrjones, post: 963824, member: 9982"] Green Bay Packers played in Milwaukee from 1933-1994 to bolster attendance and stay afloat in the earlier days. City Stadium in GB only held 25,000 fans AND players needed to use the GB East High School locker rooms. In the 50's the NFL threatened to move the team from GB to Milwaukee unless the Packers built a new stadium. County Stadium ('53) seated 36k, the New City Stadium (Lambeau 1st edition) had 32k capacity. Milwaukee played a large role in the success of the Packers, so while some don't like it the team "owes" Milwaukee which is why there is still a Milwaukee game ticket package.
