It stands for "Greatness"
The G on the Packers helmet stands for greatness. In 1961 George Brashier, the packers eqiupment manager, created it.
If you are referring to the Green Bay Packers helmet, then it stands for Green Bay.
Greatness
Green Bay smarts.
Well it was nothing. They had nothing on it,it was just plain.
The following web site: www.packersuniform.com states that the now iconic "G" helmet logo was first used by the Packers in 1961 (designed by equipment manager Dad Braiser). The University of Georgia began using the "G" helmet logo in 1964. Grambling University (Louisiana) began using the "G" helmet logo in the early 1980's
Greatness! 1961 George Brashier, eqiupment manager, created it. Packers had logos before but the first and only one on the helmet is the G for greatness. It's a trademarked "G" and the universities that use it have permission from the Packers.
They have a trademark for that particular, stylized G. The letter G is still free for everyone to use.
I've heard two things, that it stands for Green Bay or for greatness.
the packers
The "G" was designed by equipment manager Dad Braisher for coach Vince Lombardi. The team's only helmet logo, it was first used in 1961.
The G stands for Green Bay. And the Green Bay Packers are owned by the city.
