XLV & XXXI Champions Come to Packerpalooza

Packerpalooza is our post season celebration of the green & gold will include music, fun, food, drinks and giveaways...
And there's more.
In the past we've had Leroy Butler, Ahman Green, Gilbert Brown, Frank Winters, & others celebrate the best team in football, the Green Bay Packers!
This year our party will be Sunday 4/29 at the end of the NFL draft selections! Cheer with us as we welcome new Green Bay Packers to our team! GO PACK GO!
We will be treated to a performance by Pat McCurdy! He wrote a number of songs about the Packers, including "I Love the Green & Gold" and Wisconsin!


And now for the moment you've been waiting for... The Packers players we are bringing to Packerpalooza on Sunday April 29th... 3 Super Bowl Champions

This year we present the backbone of the offensive. The Pack's Offensive Line creates holes for the run game and time for our QB to connect with our wide receivers!

Frank Winters - Veteran center for the Pack (1992-2002) Super Bowl XXXI Champion and 1996 Pro Bowl player and Hall of Fame Inductee

Mark Tauscher - Wisconsin's Very Own - Career Wisconsin Badger & Green Bay Packer (2000-2010) Right Tackle. Super Bowl XLV Champion. Walter Payton Man of the Year for all of the excellent charity work he does!!!
Here is a great interview with Mark Tauscher from the program Wisconsin Reflections.

Chad Clifton - Packers Career Veteran Left Tackle (2000-Present) Super Bowl XLV Champion and Two Time Pro Bowl Selection.

We will have a small handful of T-Shirts available for purchase at the event!

Packerpalooza 2011 at Will's Northwoods Inn

The Green Bay Packers won the Super Bowl this year. It is not easy to be a Packers fan in Chicago. This year has been extra difficult and special to our fans. Green Bay faced off 3 times this season, in hard fought contests, including the NFC Championship which secured the Packers spot and eventually the win in Super Bowl XLV. To honor the team, the fans and the community that gather for their favorite sport to cheer on their favorite team, we annually produce Packerpalooza!
This year should be even better than ever. We're looking forward to heroes from Super Bowl's XXXI & XLV coming to Will's Northwoods Inn on Sunday May 1, 2011!
We'll have more details shortly, but in the meantime, please connect with us on our Facebook event page!
