The Packers experience


WISN's Shelby Croft is in Green Bay, covering the Packers playoff game and the fan experience that surrounds it.

She was at the Packers Hall of Fame at Lambeau yesterday, her first time there.

"It was incredible. I'm a history buff ... I could literally get lost in there for hours," she said.

She explained that not being from Green Bay, she knew of the Packers obviously, but got to learn more about the stories and how the team came to be.

I asked her about any interesting characters she's met there yet, because believe me, there's a ton of them at Lambeau Field on and off game days.

Shelby told me that one of her stories tonight is on a 68-year-old nun from Manitowoc who has been a fan since she was six years old. She had the chance to be on the field last week as the Captain of the G-Force ... look for that story on WISN-TV Ch. 12 tonight at 10 p.m.
