GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – While the Packers are looking to bounce back from a loss Monday, one player will remember the night as a dream come true.
Despite a loss Monday night, Wisconsin Native Vince Biegel had a night to remember. It was his first NFL game after an early season injury.
His wife, Sarah said the night was special for the whole family, completing the tri-fecta of Wisconsin football, playing High school football at Wisconsin Rapids, College football ateam UW-Madison, and professional football in Green Bay under the lights at Lambeau.
“It’s been a long time coming. Injuries are never easy, so this made it extra special.
Both Sarah and Vince are Wisconsin natives, they met at UW-Madison when Vince was a Badger. High School, College and now NFL in Wisconsin, Biegel says her husband has felt the love.
“Even at the beginning of the season, we saw people in a 45 jersey. That support means so much to me, and I know it means a lot to him.”
Sarah, a New Berlin, Wisconsin Native, said quite a few family members were part of a pretty big cheering section for Vince on Monday.
“We were all jumping for joy when we saw him come out of the tunnel and we were excited to see him on the field.”
Sarah said Vince’s battle through injury and his fight back to the field shows that nothing can stand in the way of dreams and goals.
As a life long Packer fan, Vince is taking the moment in.
