Lil Wayne was seen at Lambeau Field last week, where he watched his beloved team defeat the Detroit Lions. People wondered why Lil Wayne is a Packers fan since he’s from New Orleans, so here’s why.

On January 22, 2022, the Green Bay Packers took on the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs.
