[QUOTE="Voltron, post: 601336, member: 10770"] What made you become a Packer fan? I initially hated football, I grew up in NYC and for me it was always baseball. Living in NYC it was mainly Giants or Jets. And at home It was all Dallas (I admit I a Dallas hater and love seeing them lose)But even as a kid something didn't strike me right about the Jests and Giants. The teams are not from NY but from NJ, so I always felt they were fake, the only NY team was buffalo but Buffalo was never really mentioned in NYC and made to look like they were from Canada. So I just wasn't a football fan. I eventually moved to Miami, and was driving on some road call don shula expressway or something like that and everything was dolphins out there, but what bugged me was the obnoxious arrogant fans, I just did not like their fans, it felt like group of elitetest. So I still had not interest in football, still just a baseball fan. Eventually, I went to school in Milwaukee. All of a sudden its Packers everywhere. While still not a football fan I was always being invited to barbecues or trips with groups to tailgates. And this was different than in Miami. It was like an event and every one was welcomed. Well I had my first brat, miller and some wedges at a tailgate and I was hooked. I had become a fan been Green and Gold ever since. [/QUOTE]
