The Green Bay Packers are unlike any other team in professional sports...
112,015 people own the team.
Since 1923, the Packers have been a publicly owned, non-profit corporation governed by a stockholder-elected board of directors and a seven-member executive committee.
Currently, 112,015 stockholders own 4,750,934 shares in the Packers, stocks for which they are given no seating entitlements and for which they earn no dividends.
The public ownership of the Packers is one of the key reasons the team has never moved from a city of little over 100,000 to a larger market.
