For some, being an owner is about the sense of community and connection to the team. As Jeff from Montclair, VA, puts it, “The best part about being the owner of an NFL team is being able to SAY that I’m the owner of an NFL team.” It’s a badge of honor that sets them apart from other fans and gives them a sense of pride and ownership in the team’s success.

Others appreciate the exclusive benefits that come with being an owner. Jonathon from Raymore, MO, loves the exclusive shareholder merchandise available on the Packers Pro Shop, while Dave from Huntsville, AL, enjoys having something unique to share with others when they ask about himself.

But for many, being an owner is about more than just the perks - it’s about being part of a legacy and tradition that dates back to 1923. As Jennifer from Middleton, WI, puts it, “I believe our presidents have done a stellar job of balancing league business with what’s best for GB, because they can.” It’s a sense of trust and faith in the team’s leadership that gives owners a sense of pride and ownership in the team’s success.

As Adrian from Chula Vista, CA, so aptly puts it, “Bragging rights! I am the only person in my family who can say that I am a part owner of a major American sports franchise.” It’s a sense of pride and accomplishment that comes with being part of something bigger than themselves.

So, what does it mean to be a Packers owner? It means being part of a community that’s dedicated to the team’s success, and proud to call themselves owners of the Green Bay Packers.
