[QUOTE="doughsellz, post: 353274, member: 1158"] There may have been more emphasis on the trophy returning to GB in '97 due to the 29-year drought of both a SB win & overall respect for the franchise. That win in XXXI brought about a shift in the Nation's perspective of the city of GB & the state of WI. It's silly but I noticed The Weather Channel began showing the words "Green Bay" on its maps of the US when discussing both national & regional forecasts, even current temps across the country. Not too many other towns of 100,000 residents get used as points of reference on a national scale & we have that era of Packer football to thank for bringing that back to prominence. The mystique continues... 2010 Green Bay Packers - Super Bowl Champions!!! [/QUOTE]
