Mark Murphy and his staff are getting ready for something big in 2018 and 2019. Next year, the Packers will enter their 100th season as a franchise and they will follow that up with their birthday on Aug. 11, 2019.

And now we know a little big about the Packers plans for both.

Murphy answered questions from fans on Packers.com last week and one fan wanted to know if he should make a trip to Green Bay in 2018, 2019, 2021 which is the 100th anniversary of the Packers joining the NFL or 2023 which is the 100th anniversary of Packers first share issue. Here's what Murphy had to say.

We’re very excited about our upcoming anniversary (you only turn 100 once), and have been planning ways that we can celebrate the anniversary for a couple of years now. We will soon announce our specific plans, so I can’t get into details, but I can tell you that we will have celebrations throughout the entire 2018 season, our 100th season. We will have a special celebration on August 11, 2019, our 100th birthday. We haven’t planned anything special yet for 1923.

It looks like the Packers have some big plans for next season, which is understandable considering the history of the franchise. But what would make the celebration great is the Packers winning the Super Bowl this season because the home opener in 2018 would arguably be the biggest event in the history of Green Bay.
