Green Bay Packers in the Hall of Fame: Jerry Kramer

Not Jerry Lewis, the erstwhile comedian, but Gerald Louis “Jerry” Kramer, the guard.

Most football fans do, actually, especially after Kramer became a recent inductee into the NFL Hall of Fame (class of 2018).

Born in 1936 in a miniscule town named Jordan in east-central Montana (between state capital Helena to the west and North Dakota to the east, and also between the Fort Peck Indian Reservation to the north and the Crow Reservation to the south), Kramer played all 11 of his seasons in the NFL for the Packers – from 1958 to 1968 (inclusive).

A five-time NFL champion, including the first two Super Bowls, Kramer was also chosen for multiple All-Pro and Pro Bowl teams.
