Default Back issue football.

We're planing on visiting a sick friend who supports the Packers. I think I've got that right. That game you Americans call football! What ever the name the team is based in Chiciago and wear green and yellow.. I'd like to carve from a plan in an issue of the WI.
The carving I'm talking about is the one of a footballer catching a pig.

Anyone help me with this?

The team is based in Green Bay Wisconsin, not Chicago.
We also referred to as "cheeseheads", Because Wisconsin is known as the dairy state.

Thanks gents. Ach there's worse things than being called a cheesehead, and they've all been thrown at me.
Now it seems that issue is sold out. It would be.

John, if you contack Bob D or Shannor they should be able to make a copy of the article for you. also if you put an image search in google for green bay packers you will get the correct color for the uniform.

Thanks Robert I've done as you suggest. Bob has suggested customer services, so I've written to them.I have the issue where Gary Falin gives his way of painting that caricature . Its this that got my old brain turning. I'm not just refering to this cry for help but in general this forum is full of helpful folks. Thanks for all the help I've had, as a loner I'd have backed up carving long ago with it..
John

I'm so happy when I hear of others who support the Green Bay Packers. Even though, I and my wife do not go to the games, we are very proud of Aaron Kampman.
He graduated from the Aplington-Parkersburg, Iowa High school system. We live in Parkersburg, Iowa.
I love to watch him sack the quarter back....!!!!
