No, I'm not talking about the Packers or the indoor football Blizzard. I'm talking about the Green Bay Grizzlies. They are new this year and are based out of Howard. They are a semi-pro team with the slogan "made by the players, for the players."
Here's another question. Did you know that the U.P. has a football team? Yup, they are called the U.P. Arctic Blast. They play from May through August on various fields throughout the U.P. (Norway, Powers and practices in Kingsford.)
These two teams played one another this past weekend and I'm afraid to say that the Grizzlies made fine work out of the Arctic Blast team on home turf.
It's all for the love of the game though, right? Fans get to watch football in June and July without having to pay a big price. Grizzlies games are just $5 for adults, $3 for students and free for ages 5 and younger. Concessions and team gear are available at the games.
Here is a link to the Grizzlies schedule.
If you're in the U.P., here is a link to the Arctic Blast's schedule.
