We also know fans around the state will be able to enjoy the telecast.”
“As a longtime partner with the Packers’ organization, we are honored to help ensure that fans can enjoy the full Packers playoff experience this Sunday, both at Lambeau Field in in their homes,” said Associated Banc-Corp President & CEO Philip B. Flynn.
The Packers are a slight underdog for Sunday’s contest against the 49ers.
