The Packers' charter plane to Atlanta for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Falcons was unable to take off from Green Bay's Austin Straubel International because of heavy fog, and the team was forced to bus 125 miles to Milwaukee in order to fly out, according to multiple sources.
The team was originally scheduled to leave Green Bay at 2 p.m. local time. All commercial flights out of Green Bay and nearby Appleton on Saturday afternoon were canceled.
After waiting for nearly two hours, the Packers decided to bus to Milwaukee's General Mitchell International Airport, where the team plane met them.
