SHAWANO - For some of the older fans of Donald Driver, they too were celebrating Wednesday.

Residents from The Cottages retirement home in Shawano had a tailgate party in honor of #80.

The residents and staff members also showed off their green and gold attire.

And the dining room got a makeover with the Packers colors.

Those in attendance say while they are sad to see Driver go, it was a fun day.

"We're all involved. We, the green, number one: the Green Bay Packers is number one. Number two: he is an outstanding player and he deserves all the benefits he can receive,” said George Vellella, resident.

Residents say anytime the Packers are playing on TV, there is usually a large gathering in the dining room cheering the team on.
