Packers report record $408.7 million in revenue
Green Bay — Green and gold suits the Green Bay Packers, who reported another year of record revenue.
The NFL's smallest-market team said Friday that revenue last year totaled $408.7 million, 8.4% more than the prior year's record $377.2 million. Revenue has increased every year since the renovation of Lambeau Field in 2003.
"I see a couple keys for the financial position," said Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy. "The continued, consistent success (on the field) has been helpful for us, as well as the popularity of not only the Packers, but the league."
Murphy attributed national TV contracts and improvements in Lambeau Field Atrium businesses, especially the Packers Pro Shop, as revenue drivers. Ticket price increases for the 80,000-seat Lambeau Field, one of the largest stadiums in the league, also contributed.

From PFT:
The Packers reported a franchise-record $408.7 million in revenue for the fiscal year that ended on March 31 along with a record $48.9 million in net income and $75 million in profit from operations. Those last two numbers represented 68 percent and 91 percent jumps from the previous year.
Making record profits and making it less affordable for the average fan.
I do have to wonder what teams like Dall-ass and Jerruh haul in. Of course, he'll never disclose because he doesn't have to. But as gaudy as GB's numbers look, it wouldn't shock me if the Packers aren't nearly as profitable as other teams are.
That depends how you define "profitable"
I am happy to see my Packer stock doing well. Only stock that had a good day. And Fack any more NFL games to a non EU ****ry.
Sorry for such bitterness. Should expect this from a crowd where anyone more than one gene short from Royal linkage has serious gap toothing and a sincere passion for soccer. Thank Jerry they are an island!
How long before things get Great?
Ratpack, things will get grate again in January when Trump is sworn in. But sadly it appears things will never get grate for E-you.
Google reported that "What is the E.U.?" and "What would leaving the E.U. mean" more than tripled in the UK the morning following the election.
Sobering.
