Green Bay Packers Pocket Primer [Paperback]

Chuck Carlson (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 1, 1997

They are, for the most part, normal people who mow their lawns, pay their taxes and return their video rentals on time. But deep down, they are anything but normal.

They are Green Bay Packers fans.

They wear cheese wedges on their heads and are convinced it's normal attire. They paint their faces green and gold and can't figure out why everyone else doesn't.

The Green Bay Packers Pocket Primer is the guide for Packers fans, for those who think they're Packers fans and for those who want to know if they have what it takes to join this very elite, very unique fraternity.

This review is from: Green Bay Packers Pocket Primer (Paperback)

great book , a little short , but it tells you alot , like were the lambeau leap originated, and alot of other intresting things ,it starts off from the beggining of the franchise , to the present day .this book only has 96 pages however , that is the only bad part .it also tells you about hwo the packer fans are the most faithful and about the love they have for the team . this book is great for any young packer fan who doesent know much about the team . i highly recommend this book.
