On Monday, the NFL announced Green Bay was chosen as the destination city for the 2025 NFL Draft. It will be a special moment for the NFL and the fans who live in the historic town. NFL fans immediately commented on the opportunity to visit Wisconsin to watch the draft.
The Packers are one of the original NFL franchises. Yet the team has never had the chance to host a draft on their home turf. The draft will help boost the city’s economy and will be a chance for many local Packers fans to have the opposite to see the event live. The logistics of the draft and accommodations for the many fans will be interesting to read about, as the Packers are known for being America’s Small-Town Team.

This is an awful idea. GB does not have the infrastructure to handle this. We fucking bus the away team in from 45ish mins away for home games cus they can’t stay in GB cus we don’t have the fucking infrastructure. https://t.co/Ftuahksdju
