2. Where did the Packers play their home games at in their first season?

Answer: Hagemeister Park

Hagemeister Park had no bleachers so the fans could roam around freely. There were ropes along side of the field so the fans would know no not to go on it. During halftime, the teams would meet in opposite endzones to make plays, and fans would sometimes enter the conversations.

The Packers played six total games in the 1919 season at Hagemeister Park.
