Top 15 Celebrity Green Bay Packers Fans

16. James Van Der Beek — Van Der Beek is from Connecticut, so he’s one of those people who didn’t have their own NFL team and had to choose one from somewhere else. He made the wise decision of choosing the Green Bay Packers. Van Der Beek is most well known for playing a dude named Dawson, who apparently had a creek or something like that, but he’s also been in a couple of decent movies. In Varsity Blues, he played a high school quarterback and choose to wear the No. 4 in that film in homage to some shitbag who used to play for the Packers. He was also in The Rules of Attraction, an adaptation of a Bret Easton Ellis novel, which I mostly remember for featuring Shannyn Sossamon. Van Der Beek gets points for both having attended a Packers game and for sporting the colors.

15. Greta Van Susteren — She might be higher on this list because she was born and raised in Appleton, but she works for Fox News, home to conservative hacks like Glenn Beck, Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity. Nonetheless, Van Susteren has been wildly successful, currently hosting her own show, On the Record w/ Greta Van Susteren. If you recall, it was Van Susteren who got THE interview with Brett Favre when he asked the Packers for his release. Despite being a fixture in Washington D.C., Van Susteren says she still follows the Packers and she also owns team stock.

14. Pat Morita — Unfortunately, Pat Morita died in 2005, but he will forever be remembered by us 80s kids as Mr. Miyagi in The Karate Kid films — when those films were actually about karate and not kung fu. Other than that, Morita was mostly a bit player, but one you would recognize on TV shows from Happy Days to Baywatch. Morita was born in California and it isn’t clear why he was a Packers fan, but it’s right there on his IMDB page. If he were alive, we suspect he could kick the ass of most other people on this list.

13. Larry The Cable Guy — I’ll admit it. I don’t find Larry The Cable Guy funny… or cool, but then, I don’t like rednecks or redneck humor. On the other hand, the guy is definitely famous and he’s also a solid Packers fan. For those of you who aren’t familiar, Larry The Cable Guy is the comedian who says “Git-R-Done!” And hell, sometimes we all need to Git-R-Done! Anyway, Larry is from Nebraska and like many Nebraska Cornhuskers fans, he’s also a Packers fan (as is, we imagine, his wife, who’s from Wisconsin). His best moment in that capacity probably came in an interview with Fox News prior to last year’s Super Bowl. When asked for his prediction, he replied, “I really don’t care who wins because I’m a Packer fan.” Enough said.

12. Matt Kenseth — First of all, Kenseth is from Cambridge, so Packers fandom is a given, but much like the cable guy above, he loses points for doing redneck shit. Namely, NASCAR. Since I’m sure I don’t need to go on a rant about driving in circles and waiting for someone to crash, I’ll just move on. Kenseth is a pretty successful driver, having won the 2009 Daytona 500 and the 2003 Sprint Cup. He was also the 2000 Sprint Cup rookie of the year, after earning his chops at places like the Madison International Speedway, Slinger and WIR. Kenseth attends four or five Packers games each season and got to do the Lambeau Leap as part of an ESPN The Magazine photo shoot. Kenseth’s cred as a fan cannot be questioned.

11. Lil Wayne — I know. It makes no sense. But then, this is guy who followed up one of the most successful rap albums of the decade (Tha Carter III in 2008) with a rock album. Did I mention he can’t play guitar? Anyway, Lil Wayne is from New Orleans, so there’s no reason he should like the Packers. Of course, as a creative genius and general nutcase, Lil Wayne does things a little differently than you or I. We do know this: Lil Wayne is a huge sports fan and he proclaimed himself a Packers fan on his ESPN The Magazine blog. In March of this year he went to prison on a weapons charge. He should be out in time to catch the Packers postseason run.

10. Joan Jett — Joan Jett kicks ass. As a founding member of The Runaways she broke down a lot of barriers for women in rock. As a solo artist, she recorded great music, with singles like “I Hate Myself for Loving You,” “Do You Want to Touch Me,” and probably most recognizably, “I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll.” On top of that, she looks pretty damn good for being in her 50s. And you know, she’s a fan of the most kick-ass football organization ever to grace God’s green earth — “One of those images you see as a kid — I might have been six or seven — it was a Sports Illustrated cover. Everybody was completely muddy, so muddy you couldn’t see who was wearing what uniform. One guy had a swipe across the helmet where the mud was wiped off, and you could see part of the G through it. For some reason, as a kid, just seeing that G, I became a Green Bay Packers fan.”

9. Ashlynn Brooke — Ah yes. You knew the requisite porn star entry would be coming at some point. Well, here it is — Ashlynn Brooke. She’s a New Sensations contract girl and has won several AVN Awards, but who really cares about any of that. Ashlynn Brooke is smoking hot, often nude and she loves football. As the Oklahoma native says on her website, “I am a huge football fan, especially when it comes to my hometown Sooners and my Green Bay Packers.” I mean, really, Ashlynn Brooke is pretty much my dream girl.
