Looking for a great place to watch the Packers game on Sunday?

You could go to any one of the thousands of sports bars, pizza joints and buffalo wing chains from Green Bay to Dubai, but only one restaurant can claim one of the team's stars -- Nelson's Landing.

You may have heard of Alan and Kim Nelson's middle son, Jordy. The Packers wide receiver got on the map last year, grabbing the first touchdown of Super Bowl XLV, and has cruised into the spotlight this season. He led the Packers with 68 receptions, 1,263 yards and 15 touchdowns.

But Jordy's roots are humble to be sure. Long before the Nelsons opened up their restaurant just off of U.S. Highway 24 in Leonardville, Kan., they made ends meet by farming. They raise Black Angus beef and grow everything from corn to alfalfa to wheat and beans.

"It was a lot of work, time-consuming, took a lot of discipline," the 26-year old Jordy says of helping out in the family business, "but I think it made me a better person in the long haul."

Jordy walked on at Kansas State, just 25 miles from where he grew up in Leonardville. He would walk off as one of the most decorated receivers in not just school, but conference history. As he waited to find out where he'd be playing in the NFL, Jordy pitched in at the family restaurant.

"I did everything. I was in the kitchen every once in a while," he says. "I was waiting on tables, working behind the bar a little bit, wherever we needed help."

Opened in 2007, Nelson's Landing serves up sandwiches, burgers, steak and brisket. They also have gameday favorites from boneless wings to loaded nachos. Anyone with an extra $5.59 and taste for adventure can even order up a plate of fried gizzards.

Jordy said it was a family decision to open the restaurant and offer something unique for their neighbors.

"We thought it would be worth it for the town, the community to really have a nice place to sit down and have dinner," he says, "or for the farmers to sneak in and have a quick lunch."

Jordy and his wife, Emily, live in Green Bay, but they get back to the small town with a population of less than 500 every now and then. Before last season, Jordy even brought some of the other Packers wide receivers with him and they had quite an experience.

"We had a blast acting the fool. We did farming things," Greg Jennings told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "We got to see how they artificially inseminate cows. We actually did it. You've got to stick your hand in there. It was nice and warm."

Fear not, Packers fans. At Jordy Nelson's family restaurant, all you have to do is eat.

A 36-year-old Grand Chute woman flew into a drunken rage over the Packers loss Sunday and attacked her daughter and husband, the Appleton Post Crescent is reporting.

The woman has been charged with child abuse and disorderly conduct.

The woman had been drinking and choked the girl during and after the Packers loss. She also broke a lamp, tossed her dinner on the floor and tried to punch her husband in the face, according to the criminal complaint.

The Post Crescent has the full story.

A contractor on Thursday worked on the exterior of the stadium near the north end zone, removing façade where new elevators eventually will be installed. 

Most of the effort now is prep work, but every opportunity counts if the Packers are going to have the changes — including new elevators and 7,000 more seats — ready for the 2013 season.

The Packers plan to provide a project update next week.

Rookie receiver Tori Gurley is a member of the Packers’ practice squad.  The Vikings offered him a spot on their active roster for the final three games of the 2011 season.

And Gurley declined.

A former child care center along Lombardi Avenue could become the newest party house for Green Bay Packers fans passing through town on a weekend.

Some neighbors have voiced concerns about what would become the fifth such rental property licensed by the city to operate near Lambeau Field.

But property owner Debbie Jacques promises to keep an eye on her football-loving customers from a particularly close vantage point: next door.

Jacques lives in the duplex at 1839-1845 S. Oneida St., and she has transformed half of the property into a green-and-gold party pad that Packers fans can rent for $2,500 a weekend.

"I just thought it was a great idea," said Jacques, who modeled her renovation on other party houses in the neighborhood.
