Best Answer

The correct answer is The Indian Packing Company Indians. The team was sponsored by Coach Curly Lambeau's employer : the Indian Packing Company.

Although originally called the Indians, by the end of the first year, the local newspapers were already calling them the Packers.

The Indian Packing Company Packers then became the Acme Packers when the Acme Packing Company bought out the Indian Packing company.

When the Acme Packing Company stopped sponsoring the team, they became the Green Bay Packers.

They have been nicknamed the Bays, the Blues, the Big Bay blues, The Pack and the Green and Gold. But none of these nicknames has ever been the offical name of the team.

Lambeau Field.

The Green Bay Packers stadium was constructed in 1957 and was, at that time, informally known as "New City Stadium". It was renamed "Lambeau Field" in 1965 in memory of Earl "Curly" Lambeau, the Packers' founder, who died earlier that year.
