The rivalry dates back to 1920 when Chicago and Green Bay first faced each other on a field.  Over the 206 games, the Packers have taken the lead in the overall record at 105-95-6.

The Chicago Bears have won 9 NFL Championships over their existence.  8 of them were before the Super Bowl era with only 1 Lombardi Trophy to their name.

Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers have amassed 13 NFL Championships.  9 of those came before the Super Bowl era with 4 of the Championships coming in "the big game".

But now Packers fans can also claim a Championship of their own.  In the category of beer.

According to a study by pickwise.com, Packers fans consume an average of 6.3 beers per gameday.  The most by any NFL fanbase.
