GREEN BAY, Wis. -- So you want to own an NFL team? Here's your chance to buy a share of the Green Bay Packers for $300.
To be sure, the stock will have no value, pay no dividend and allow no say in team matters, but the Packers are offering shares of "ownership" for just the sixth time in franchise history and the first time in 10 years.
The early stock sales (1923, 1935 and 1950) were done out of necessity in order to keep the team afloat financially in the small market of Green Bay.
