When is the last time Packers went to a Super Bowl? History of Green Bay’s big game appearances

By | January 23, 2021

When the Green Bay Packers make it to the Super Bowl, they normally win it.

The Packers have won four out of five appearances in the Super Bowl, tied for the best winning percentage among franchises with at least three appearances in the big game. Green Bay’s history with the Super Bowl dates back, of course, to the first two Super Bowls, both of which were won by the Packers.They weren’t even known as the “Super Bowl” at the time, instead called the AFL-NFL World Championship. Retroactively, though, those two Packers wins are recognized as the first two Super Bowl titles.

The current face of the Green Bay franchise, Aaron Rodgers has made it to one Super Bowl. He and the Packers won the 2011 Super Bowl (at the conclusion of the 2010 regular season) with a 31-25 victory over Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Here’s more to know about Green Bay’s history in the Super Bowl, which in some ways is as deep as any franchise’s.
