Book Description
Professional football is the most popular sport in the United States today. With so many famous players from the past and present, some of whom achieved notoriety because of a persona they created, there are fans who have also made a name for themselves by either their work and loyalty for their team, or by creating an "alter ego" with respect to how they cheer or support their team. Some have incredibly wild and outrageous outfits. On game days, some of these diehard fans take longer to get themselves ready for games than the players they cheer for! The face paint, the outrageous outfits, the chants and cheers, and the attention to detail are what make these fans unique. During football season, these diehard fans can be seen each weekend as they showcase themselves in support of their team in front of hundreds of thousands of viewers worldwide. In 1998, Visa sponsored a national contest to find the wildest, most loyal, and most intriguing fans for each team in the league. The award was entitled, "The Visa Hall of Fans" Award as fans were chosen from each team based on their submitted essays and photos. Contestants had to explain why they should represent their respective team in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. At the time, a special wing in the Hall was created to honor these diehard fans. Visa awarded plaques to the winners - originally at the Hall, and later in front of the hometown fans at each team's stadium. The Hall of Fame displayed the plaques for a year until the new class of fans was selected and their plaques were displayed. At that point, the prior year's winners had their names placed on a permanent wall plaque in the "Hall of Fans" wing of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

"One mind, one goal, one purpose, one heart." That was the mantra that united the players of the 2010-11 Green Bay Packers and carried them to victory in Super Bowl XLV. No story in recent sports memory rivals that of the Packers' quest to bring a Super Bowl championship and the Lombardi trophy back to Titletown. Green Bay may be the smallest city in America to have a major pro sports franchise, but it also has the most passionate following and loyal fans, key factors in the team overcoming a rough start to the season and achieving the improbable feat of winning three straight road games to reach the Super Bowl. That story is chronicled here, in the only official book specially commissioned by the Packers to commemorate this historic victory. This beautifully produced book features an Introduction by Head Coach Mike McCarthy, new, in-depth stories from the Packers editorial staff writers, as well as hundreds of photographs that tell the story of the team's epic season--from their roller-coaster start to the must-win final game of the regular season to their decisive march through the playoffs, all capped by their momentous and inspiring victory over the vaunted Pittsburgh Steelers.
