I've always thought it stood for Green Bay, but obviously, I'm wrong.  Or is it so obvious, that it's not so obvious anymore?

Good job, TTBF. Most people believe it stands for "Green Bay".

I was going to ask if you knew it or had to search for the answer.

And along the same lines, many people don't realize why the team is called the "Packers" as well.

Curly Lambeau needed $500 for uniforms and equipment, so the Indian Packing Company, a meat packing company, gave him the money on the condition that the team be named after the company,
