Although the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears rivalry is in no need of any additional hype, the Green Bay Press-Gazette newspaper inadvertently added a little fuel to the fire.
This past week as both teams prepped for their NFC Championship game showdown, the paper misprinted a bold headline that read, “ON TO CHICACO”.
With the Jets not trash-talking this week about their opponent the Pittsburgh Steelers, this gaffe, although accidental in nature, went viral across websites across the country with some interpreting it as a disrespectful move by one city to another.
Either way expect a battle between Green Bay and Chicaco this Sunday and also expect a spelling class to take place at the Green Bay Press-Gazette.
