Calling All Downers Grove Cheeseheads

Are you a Packers fan? Patch wants to hear why you're backing the "other" team and where you'll be watching Saturday's big game.

Here's a shout out to all Packers fans in Downers Grove.

GO BACK TO WISCONSIN! (Just kidding.)

Really, we want to know what makes you tick. What force of nature propels you to wear yellow and green? Does the G on your chest stand for "Grove" or does it, in fact, represent Green Bay, which has a well-earned reputation as Wisconsin's oldest city? A town, by the way, that's about 150 miles farther away than the Bear domicile to our east.
