I went last year for my first time. Was a neat experience. Not going to be able to go this year.
I'd say Butler getting on the board is pretty much guaranteed.

Went once about 10 years ago. It was like 90 degrees. Boring and too hot.
These business meetings were more interesting and fun back before the 1997 stock sale. Back then they were held at the Midway Motor Lodge (now the Best Western Midway). Less than 100 folks attended and you wore a suit and tie (or in my case a dress). Nobody wore Packer gear. You really could rub elbows with the swells then. The HC was often the GM so he would be there. After the meeting you could go up to the board members and/or HC and ask questions. I went to a couple after they started to have them at Lambeau but it just wasn't the same. The last one I attended was in 2013 (the year they added those seats way up in the south end zone). Shareholders got to tour areas not accessible to the public on stadium tours. I do not plan on attending this year.
If any of you gentlemen were there today was there any earth shattering news?
I was there working but was out in the parking lot driving a courtesy shuttle. After the meeting passengers assured me that the Packers are still solvent and my job is secure.
The Packers lunatic fringe is more visible because of sheer numbers. The Packers have one of the largest fan bases in all of sports. If the fringe percentage is the same as with other teams, then we end up with larger volumes of nut jobs. - JustJeff
