Hosting NFC Championship within reach

Posted

A win tomorrow would land the packers right where they were, last year, but local businesses will be keeping an eye on the match-up as well.

This didn't seem possible two weeks ago, but after their win in DC the Packers now have a legitimate shot at hosting the NFC championship game which is something both fans and the hospitality industry are hoping for.

“I think there's this added hope green bay is going to win, seattle is going to win," says Jeff Mirkes with Downtown Green Bay Inc.

“Always very busy the whole downtown really is, and it's nice downtown if you stay downtown you can walk to alot of different venues," says Barb Myer at the Hampton Inn.

With a 14 million dollar impact we all stand to benefit from at least one more home game.

The Packers need to win tomorrow then hope for Seattle to beat Carolina to host the NFC Championship game.
