The famous fence across from Lambeau Field, where the Green Bay Packers play (referred to as the "crown jewel of the NFL") is famous for it's annual community painting project.

This year, as last year the Packers had a contest to develop the years slogan, which is "Donald and the Pack: Back to the Big Dance".

"People love to get involved with this and it makes a lot of sense," said Bruce Kiel, creator of the fence slogan.  "Nothing fancy, it's a good time, just back the Pack."Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy agrees that the event is a unique way for fans to support their Green and Gold."

It's a great tradition, to me it kind of signifies and personifies, the unique nature of the Packers organization, and relationship we have with our neighbors and with the community and we're very supportive of it," said Murphy.

The slogan was inspired by Packers all-star wide receiver Donald Driver's win on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" this past spring.
