[QUOTE="gbpowner, post: 410102, member: 2461"] I like the fact that in these economic times; the GBPs will not have to hold the city, county or state hostage for this go-round of stadium upgrade money. Instead; as in previous generations, thousands of Packer fans will answer the call to support their team financially. I like the fact that my team will not be picking up and moving overnight to...Indianapolis, Baltimore, St.Louis, LA, Tennessee, Oakland, Arizona, Timbuktu or where ever else a greedy owner finds the best stadium deal! I like the yearly call to the owners meeting at Lambeau Field where I will once again spend too much $$ at the Packer Pro Shop! :laugh: I enjoy the camaraderie of people from all over the country and all walks of life; meeting to take "stock" of the state and health of the GBP organization. I like that in that moment, we all have at least one common tie that binds us! I don't mind being "suckered" once again into buying a piece of paper that has as much worth as the TP that I use on my backside! I understand my piece of paper is worthless, will not gain in value, will not make me money and will not be available for resale. But is this paper really worthless, if I count all of the entertainment value that I have received over the years following this team...win, lose or draw? Why this crazy, cultish behavior in purchasing valueless stock?? Because the GBP organization really is a piece of history and a source of pride to many "owners." Many of us have family and friends who have stepped up in the past. Many of us want our present and future generations to be a part of this history. Many of us are a part of the "99%" but want to enjoy the bragging rights of being part of the "<1%"! Many of us take pride that our team is funded in the most unique manner in ALL of the sporting world and we want to be a part of it! The Green Bay Packers are a team founded, financed and followed by the People! :tup: [/QUOTE]
