Jerry Kramer always enjoyed the process of earning a championship ring.
He put a lot of value in the hard work, chemistry and determination it took to win five NFL titles and two Super Bowls as an offensive lineman with the Green Bay Packers in the 1960s.
But he’s never cared about keeping much from those times except the memories. Which is why, on the 50th Anniversary of the Super Bowl, the former great is putting his Super Bowl I ring up for auction.
It’s one of 60 items from Kramer that will be made available by Heritage Auctions, a Texas company, in its Platinum Night auction that closes Feb. 20-21. It includes his game-used jersey from Super Bowl I and his Packers Hall of Fame ring.
Don’t worry. Kramer isn’t broke. He doesn’t need the money and said he’s living quite comfortably.
