The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

They are currently members of the North Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) in the National Football League (NFL) and are the third-oldest franchise in the NFL.

The Packers are the last vestige of "small town teams" that were once common in the NFL during the 1920s and 1930s.

Founded in 1919 by Earl "Curly" Lambeau (thus the name Lambeau Field in which the team presently plays) and George Whitney Calhoun, the Green Bay Packers can trace their lineage to other semi-professional teams in Green Bay dating back to 1896.

The Green Bay Packers have won twelve league championships (more than any other team in the NFL) including nine NFL Championships prior to the Super Bowl era and three Super Bowl victories in 1967 (Super Bowl I), 1968 (Super Bowl II) and 1997 (Super Bowl XXXI).

Beginning with the 1992 season, the Packers had 13 non-losing seasons in a row (their worst record being 8--8 in 1999), two Super Bowl appearances, and one Super Bowl win (Super Bowl XXXI).

The Green Bay Packers were founded on August 11, 1919 by former high-school football rivals Earl "Curly" Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun.

He was given $500 for uniforms and equipment, on the condition that the team be named for its sponsor.

The success of the Green Bay Packers is legendary. It includes three Super Bowls (one of these games decided the NFL champion, and the first two date to the era when the AFL and NFL were still two separate leagues).
