Packers, Raiders square off at Lambeau Field in Bishop's Charities Game

GREEN BAY -- The Green Bay Packers will take on the Oakland Raiders on Thursday, August 18th at Lambeau Field.

Thursday's game is the Bishop’s Charities Game. It was first played in 1961 after Vince Lombardi was approached by the Diocese of Green Bay about playing a charitable contest in Green Bay (the Shrine contest was a fixture in Milwaukee).
