YOU TOO CAN BECOME A CHEESEHEAD -- FOR ONLY $200 A SHARE

11.14.1997

          Packers stockholders "overwhelmingly approved" a sale
     of stock Thursday, "a decision hailed by club officials as
     one of the most momentous in its 79-year history," according
     to Bob McGinn of the MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL.  Packers
     Corporate VP John Fabry predicated that all 400,000
     available shares would be sold: "I really think there will
     be a short supply" (MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL, 11/14).
          BUYERS MARKET: Fans can call 1-888-414-PACK or access
     the Packers' Web site at www.packers.com beginning today to
     request a common stock offering document.  Once fans receive
     and review the offering document, they will be eligible to
     order up to 200 shares of stock at $200 each (MILWAUKEE
     JOURNAL SENTINEL, 11/14).  The Packers took out a full-page
     ad in USA TODAY that offered details on how interested
     parties could take part in the offer (USA TODAY, 11/14).
