GREEN BAY (WLUK) — While in Green Bay for a campaign event Monday, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz — a die-hard Vikings fan — paid a visit to 1265 Lombardi Avenue, home of the Green Bay Packers.

“I just got out of Lambeau Field a few minutes ago. First visit. My staff said, ‘Don’t say anything about the Vikings.’ I said that’s like telling someone not to swear in church. “What do they think over there, that I’m a football guy?” Walz said at the start of his speech at the KI Convention Center.

Walz wasn’t the only fan of a rival NFC North team at the rally stage. Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer also spoke, along with Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers.

“You know, it’s not every day that a Lions fan gets that much applause in Green Bay,” Evers joked after Whitmer finished her remarks.

Walz noted the trio’s conflicting loyalties in his speech, but said they all agreed that Vice President Kamala Harris should be the next president of the United States.

We may not agree on this part, but I can tell you: we all agree on this. This year, the path to the Super Bowl, the path to control of the Senate, and the path to the White House lie directly through the NFC North. Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota.

Look, you’ve got a Lions fan, a Packers fan and a Vikings fan up here. The only thing more amazing is that we have Bernie Sanders, Dick Cheney and Taylor Swift all on the same ticket. So let’s go!

Walz, a former high school football coach, toured Lambeau Field before his event in downtown Green Bay. The video shows him standing on the field with the Packers’ director of public affairs and stadium services.

During his remarks, Walz also cited a quote from Vince Lombardi that he often used with his players. He said the quote also applies to the Harris-Walz campaign.

“‘There is simply no substitute for hard work.’ So look, we leave everything on the field,” Walz said.
