Imagine what the collectable value of the first stocks sold by the Packers 90 years ago would be at auction today to a RICH Packers Fan?

There are perks with being a "stockholder" :

Exclusive shareholder merchandise is available for you on the Packers Pro Shop website. Go to www.packersproshop.com and click on the shareholder tab at the top of the page. From there you will be prompted to enter your username and password. Your username is your 11 digit control number as noted on the right hand corner of the notice or proxy card, or in the email sent. Your password is your last name. The exclusive shareholder Super Bowl XLV collection also is available.

Also, from an article at http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-505123_1...et-worthless/:

As an owner, you will be invited to shareholder meetings and have voting privileges.


No, you cannot resell them and they never pay dividends but there are reasons for a fan to be interested in "investing" in their team

You can "invest" in the team through buying tickets, merchandise, watching them on tv (improving ratings), etc. Buying paper from them for $250 is stupid.

But you get to attend shareholder meetings, vote, and have access to special merchandise. :D

Well in that case.. :hmmm:
