Can i still buy green bay packers stock
From time to time, the Packers sell shares of stock to the general public. Still, plenty of fans will buy what essentially is a glorified piece of memorabilia. Look, people can spend money however they want.
Original Cheesehead®
And not just another donation. Big PACK guy here. That said, go pack.
Time too draft a QB of the future. So, let me get this straight. Hahaha, only the ignorant and foolish fans will buy this toilet paper, otherwise known as turd nation! The amount of vitriol you spew at Green Bay for letting its fans support the club is astonishing, and the consistency with which you do it is remarkable.
You sure do remain upset about this model. No one is forcing anyone to purchase anything. No one is threatening to move the team unless they ante up. No one is forcing a tax on the populace. Some folks buy jerseys, which I think look stupid on grown men for the most part. Some buy other garbage. This is typical liberal thought that dominates insecure people and dictates that this move is unfair to the people. I might pick up a bakers dozen just cuz. Stop spewing crap out of your keyboard.
The Packers came up with a way for the fans of the team to pay for things like stadium renovation and other team needs. This avoids having to go to the government and have everyone be taxed for it. Similar fundraising very much should be used by other teams.
Say if they chip in a certain amount in donations to help build a new stadium, they get free entry to fan events, hall-of-fame, a few games a year, etc. There is absolutely no reason other teams should not follow this method. Any club will take a check. We all recognize that PFT posted this story for the sole purpose of providing a forum for gratuitous cheap shots from the Viking fans.
We look at it as the price to be paid for making the playoffs eight years in a row while the Vikings have won exactly one playoff game in the last decade. I make copies of these things all the time and sell them on eBay to Packer fans. The copies look just like the real thing. Florio why the hatred for the Packer Organization?
They emphasize that it is a collectible. How is it any different than selling a jersey? When people buy a jersey do they actually think it is the same jersey that a player wears?
Do you post these opinions because you know it will get responses from the simple minded, jeffrey, numba, ariani and others? If we did not have Rodgers the team would not win ONE GAME! You have to hand it to the Vikings. They got their idiot fan base to buy used urinal troughs from the Metrodome. Florio still griping over this? It just gives the entitled fans some fake endorsement of their self perceived entitlement. Find new material for the off-season, please, thank you. I do not want to miss one gullible cheese head moron trying to justify and spin their willingness to buy worthless copies of worthless stock.
Feb 9, It costs more to put your name on a brick outside the new monstrosity in Minny. Hipocrisy is something vikings fans are experts at practicing but have no knowledge of understanding. Show me another fan base that willing support a team because of its traditions and what it means to fandom.
Have fun subjecting people of the city and state who have no interest in football to a tax to build billionaires their stadiums with panels falling off and roofs that collapse. Not Milwaukee or another metro. Florio wants to be Colin Cowherd, its the only way his show will work! Its so bad, the dynamic is terrible, his persona is dry, Florio knows he has to be a troll to get clicks and ratings.
The NFL is going to shop the Raiders and chargers to Nevada, Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Kansas, etc. Really, every fan base buys NFL memorabilia that is basically worthless. No fan base is exempt. The Packers winning Super Bowl LII at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis next February is going to drive Florio to commit suicide.
I find it difficult to argue against that. Half the country would want to buy it. Fans are aware that it is a novelty item, one that could be hung in a man cave, on the wall, on the mantle, office, anywhere. Why is it so difficult for you to understand this? Well, it could be worse. Just imagine if we had a clever New York criminal owner that managed to shift the entire cost of everything in the world onto our backs. We might even have gotten jacked a BILLION dollars to pay for a McStadium that is literally falling apart as we type.
You know how you laugh inside and shake your head at someone when you see them wearing Ed Hardy or Affliction clothes? Great means by which fans themselves can financially support the Packers without excessively burdening non-fans.
Some teams have tried to copy this successful idea by relying on the fans. Take the Legacy Bricks in Minnesota for example. Huge failure, just like the team. How did they ever think they had a fan base as loyal and faithful as the Packers? They are indeed …one of us. Of course, coming from you, thats the norm. YOU are the joke on this thread. I think buying paper stock is just as stupid as taxpayers funding stadiums.
A stadium that is used multiple times throughout the year for numerous events that include concerts,youth events, super bowls, NCAA basketball championships, X Games, etc.
To which Packer fans living locally here in MN will certainly utilize the stadium for those events. This is no more ridiculous than an entire state paying 1. Filthy, you must be in the minority. If that were a guarantee, Ted Thompson would get very busy in the free agent market this offseason. What better reason to win a SB? Poke fun all you want, rest of the NFL. What the ownership structure does is insure the team cannot move or be sold, and will never have a dicknose billionaire owner Jerry Jones, ha!
I bet there are a lot of NFL fans out there that would gladly take that structure. Louis, Cleveland, LA, Oakland care to come in?
Have you seen the prices on the more popular jerseys? I prefer my Crush to be Orange says: Feb 9, 1: The original idea was to issue a commemorative paarticipation certificate for every embarrassing playoff loss. They scrapped that idea, not enough trees in GB.
Palmer back to pass, hits Larry Fitzgerald who was LEFT WIDE open…. No amount of rationalization will enable Packer-hating Viking trolls to accept the logic and magnimity of Packer fans voluntarily supporting the Packers with substantial financial contributions. If the Vikings could somehow capitalize on the propensity of their fans to get drunk and pick needless fights, they could pay off McStadium in no time at all. Nobody has less respect for Packer fans than I do expect now it seems for the Green Bay Packers themselves.
They are trying to sell photocopies of fake stock to Packer fans just like I do. Let that sink in. They are probably LTAO while they do just like I do too. Not sure which is more amusing and entertaining- the fact that the Packers brass can get away with swindling their fans or these same fans thinking that this is so special to own! Feb 11, 9: Feb 12, 3: You will have to go to eBay and buy the stock to find out which number I am using.
Feb 12, 7: Any rube thinks they can. Look at you, for instance. Or are just trying to use a phrase that you really understand because you think it makes you sound cool? A decline in quality does not infer a high level of quality ever existed. An additional layer of declination is always possible, even for you. Half of your teams have never sniffed a Super Bowl victory, but you still buy all their junk each and every year…and your going to judge?
Anybody hear of a high quality color photocopier? Nobody cares cause the paper will cost more than the original is worth. You must be logged in to leave a comment.

Wisconsin's Favorite Son Jeffrey Be Dahmed says: Talk about going to the well again. And they call Vikings fans delusional. Why are you so patently against not having a billionaire owner?
