Packers fans are invited to bring the spirit of Green Bay to the San Francisco area a day early with a Packers Everywhere pep rally at 6 p.m. PST on Saturday, Jan. 18.

The festivities will take place at The Patio, located at 412 Emerson St., Palo Alto, Calif. The Patio will open at 11 a.m., with pre-rally festivities and Packers prizing beginning at 4 p.m.

Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy will take part in the pre-gameday excitement by greeting fans and participating in a Q-and-A session with the radio voice of the Packers, Wayne Larrivee. Packers alumni Jordy Nelson, Lynn Dickey and James Lofton will attend to socialize and take photos with fans and will share their thoughts on the next day's game against the 49ers.

A roundtable discussion with Packers.com's Mike Spofford and Wes Hodkiewicz will conclude the event.

Fans planning to attend the rally are encouraged to sign up in advance for Packers Pass to have a chance to win autographed Packers items such as a Kenny Clark signed-helmet, Mason Crosby signed-jersey, and other prizes.

To register for the opportunity to win prizes, fans should download the official Packers mobile app or visit packers.com/pass to sign up. Rally attendees must have their Packers Pass scanned on-site at the designated prizing area in order to see if they've won. Entrants must be present at the rally to win, and advance Packers Pass signup does not guarantee rally admission.

Packers Everywhere, through its website packerseverywhere.com, enables Packers fans to find official Packers establishments around the world where they can watch games with fellow fans.
