America’s hat to become cheesehead: Canadians can now own Packers’ stock

So you're a diehard fan of the only publicly owned team in the NFL and want to support them from your home in Saskatoon, eh? Well it's time to start saving up loonies and toonies, you hoser, because Canadians can now buy stock in the Green Bay Packers.

The Packers are now selling shares not only in the U.S., but also to its northern neighbors after receiving approval from the NFL and completing the Canadian regulatory requirements.

"Since launching our sale in the United States, we've received a lot of interest from our fans in Canada ... and are excited to offer ownership to our fans there," said Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy in a packers.com news release.

Proceeds from the shares will go toward expanding Lambeau Field, a $143 million project scheduled to finish before the 2013 season.

Shares cost $250 apiece, with $35 in handling fees for Canadians and $25 in the U.S. The shares pay no dividends and have virtually zero re-sale value.
