(founder of the green bay packers)
Curly Lambeau, the team’s founder, solicited funds for uniforms from his employer, the Indian Packing Company.
(he was given $250 for uniforms and equipment, on condition that the team be named for its sponsor (a similar event would occur the following year with the Decatur Staleys, who later became the Chicago Bears))
(an early newspaper article referred to the new Green Bay team as “the Indians” but by the time they played their first game they had adopted the name “Packers”)
(established 1919)
(“Earl Louis “Curly” Lambeau” (April 9, 1898 – June 1, 1965) was a professional American football player and coach in the National Football League (NFL))
Lambeau was a founder, player, and first coach of the Green Bay Packers professional football team.
He shares the distinction with rival George Halas of the Chicago Bears of coaching his team to the most NFL championships, with six.
(he was an inaugural inductee to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1963)
