Lynn Dickey In Eau Claire

Eau Claire (WQOW) -- Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Lynn Dickey is in Eau Claire Wednesday and Thursday.

Dickey played for the Packers from 1976 through 1985, and wore #12 when he played in Green Bay.  Dickey says if he were starting an NFL team now, he'd take the Packer who wears #12 now, Aaron Rodgers.

"He's got everything that you'd want in to a quarterback," says Dickey about Rodgers, "number one, he's smart. He's got a really good arm, a powerful arm. He's accurate and he can run like a deer. I don't know if I've seen a guy with that package."


Lynn Dickey will be signing autographs at Dickey's Barbecue Pit on Clairemont Avenue in Eau Claire, Thursday, from 10:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M.  As one would expect, he enjoys his trips back to the state of Wisconsin.

"The people here, they don't forget," says Dickey, "I don't know how they do that, but it's just not me, anyone who played the game, they always remember."
