GREEN BAY — While the Green Bay Packers’ primary focus is rightfully on the 2020 NFL season and keeping their players, coaches and staff healthy amid the coronavirus, the franchise has some big hopes for hosting some big events in the not-too-distant future.
With one notable exception.
“We’ll never host a Super Bowl,” team president/CEO Mark Murphy acknowledged during a Zoom video conference call with reporters following the team’s virtual shareholders meeting on Thursday afternoon. “That’s the reality.”
That said, the Packers do have plenty of other big-time events they’re hoping to have at Lambeau Field and in the surrounding area in the coming years, including the 2024 NFL draft and the Big Ten Conference football championship game, along with making up the college football matchup between the University of Wisconsin and Notre Dame that had been set for Oct.
