Green Bay Hosts 2025 NFL Draft, Parking Goes Viral

The 2025 NFL Draft begins Thursday in Green Bay, Wisconsin, marking the first time the event is held at Lambeau Field and the city's first time hosting since 1940. Local residents near Lambeau have gone viral for selling parking spaces at prices from $60 to $200 due to limited official parking options. The Detroit Lions, with the 28th pick, are considering defensive line or receiver prospects, while the Los Angeles Chargers, led by coach Jim Harbaugh, may draft former Michigan players as part of a roster rebuild. The draft's move from cities like Detroit, Kansas City, and Las Vegas to Green Bay introduces unique logistical considerations for fans and organizers. City officials continue to monitor accommodations and crowd management as thousands of visitors arrive. Fan turnout and the city's management of the event are closely watched as the first round approaches.
