The 'Green and Gold' suit up to take on the troops. But this is not a football game. It's a friendly competition between the Packers players and our soldiers serving overseas. The games of choice, video games like Guitar Hero.
"It's a surreal experience. Not every day you get to spend the day with Packers and play guitar hero with them." Cadette Jonathan Fleming said. Fleming played along with Packers Ryan Grant, Jarius Wynn Mason Crosby and BJ Raji in an effort to give a break to our hard working troops. "They don't have much down time, so when they are and we can help and make the days a little easier, I'm all for it." Ryan Grant told us.
The players joined Wisconsin troops stationed thousands of miles away through the Internet. It's something players Like BJ Raji truly enjoyed. "It's my way of saying thanks for what they're doing for this country."
Fleming told us the Guitar Hero showdown turned into a morale booster for the military. "I think it helps them tremendously." It helps especially when they can say 'I've played the Packers and won!'
