Packers Wall of Fame
An impressive display honoring inductees into the newly renovated Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame.
This is just one side of the inductees display that line the walls of the new Hall of Fame at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
The gold footballs are engraved with the name and likeness of the player as well as the date of their induction into the Hall of Fame. In the lower right corner of this image is the gold football honoring, Earl “Curly” Lambeau, founder, player, and first coach of the Green Bay Packers.

Curly At Lambeau
Visitors to Lambeau Field – home of the Green Bay Packers – are greeted by larger-than-life statues of legendary coach, Vince Lombardi, and the founder, player and first coach, Curly Lambeau. (The one pictured here.) Lambeau coached the Packers for 31 years and is the one person most responsible for the existence of the Green Bay Packers franchise.
I previously posted a photo of the Vince Lombardi statue Here.

Mean Gene
Let me introduce you to Mean Gene. That’s the name on the back of his jersey. His given name is Gene Greening. I saw Gene on recent visit to Lambeau Field – home of the Green Bay Packers of NFL fame.
I had a few minutes and decided to stop in and take photos of anything that might catch my eye. Turns out, Mean Gene was the most interesting thing I encountered. With his “#1 Fan” foam finger and other stylish accessories attached to his Cheese Head, he was a standout. I asked if I could take his photo and he was kind enough to accommodate me…cheering, “Go, Pack, Go!” while waving his Packers towel. I’ll bet Gene could tell you stories and glories of many Packer seasons. Unfortunately, neither of us had time to chat – just snapped a few quick photos and went our separate ways.
I did learn, beside being the ultimate Packers fan, Mean Gene was at Lambeau that day as a volunteer. He was helping with some event for disabled veterans. It’s obvious, Gene is living up to his reputation as a true Packers Fan but I don’t think he’s succeeding in pulling off the “Mean” persona. (But, then again, I’ve never seen him on game day.)
