Green Bay is a dedicated cheese-head town. Lambeau Field borders on a place of worship. Thousands of fans come out for practice sessions and those days are as special as game
days in other towns. The players emerge from the locker room and ride
old cruiser-type bicycles over to the practice field. Kids hop on the
handle bars, skip along next to their favorite guys, get their
autographs, get their pictures taken on their broad shoulders. When the
players dismount their bikes at the field, they're in no rush to get
away from their fans. They amble along, talking to anybody and
everybody. It's a small town on the map but the team they adore, their
Packers, render them a big town in terms of fame and stature and pride...
