Businesses hoping for Packers win Sunday

Posted

GREEN BAY, WI----A win this Sunday means the green and gold are NFC North champs and would guarantee at least one home playoff game. That would be a huge victory for local business owners.

Regular season games bring in roughly 14 million dollars into the local economy.

“The hospitality industry will definitely be watching this weekend," says Brenda Krainik with the Greater Green Bay Convention and Visitors Bureau.

If they lose, it's a trip to DC and thousands of dollars lost for places like Stadium View.

“I don't think Washington DC needs any more money. I think they got plenty of it. Give it to poor little old Green Bay," says Jerry Watson at Stadium View.

There is also a chance,  but a very slim chance the Packers could host a game in the NFC Championship down the road.
