GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Another one of those only-in-Green-Bay moments -- a near-capacity crowd at Lambeau Field for a practice -- will take place again this summer. The Packers announced Thursday they will hold their annual Family Night event July 31, one week before their preseason opener in the Hall of Fame game.
Last year’s Family Night event drew 67,191 for a practice.

It’s not even a scrimmage anymore; coach Mike McCarthy changed the format in 2014.
