Click here to listen to Newsradio 620 WTMJ's Dan O'Donnell report from just behind the Illinois border in a place where Packers and Bears fans can go to war for their team peacefully, but where Packers fans tend to win out.

It's a blood feud unparallelled in all of pro football.

The history.  The legacy.  The mutual hatred.

Yeah, it's a lot like the Hatfields and McCoys whenever Bears fans and Packers fans get together. 

But Joe Pendergrass, owner of the Sports Page, close to the border of the "Packers-Bears war," has the right idea.

"I've got a two sided bar," said Pendergrass.  "Packers fans sit on one side and the Bears fans are on the other, and they go to war."

And in Rockford, Illinois, at least, the Packers nation army is winning.

"By far," states Pendergrass.  "There's no comparison."

Really, though, was there ever any doubt about cheesehead loyalty?

"They're just more into their team," said Pendergrass. 

"It's their team.  The Bears, they're just not really into the team, the loyalty kind of thing.  You get a side full of Packers fans and they're screaiming, they're yelling.  They're into their team."

In fact, Joe says his bar's Bears fans highly fair-weather.

"Usually you don't see a lot of them until they get into the second round of the playoffs," claims Pendergrass. 

"They get to the second round of the playoffs, the championship game, and then into the Super Bowl, that's when you see a lot of them."

"Packers fans are usually the most devoted," says Pendergrass.  "They come out, they go around the west side, and I give them the biggest room becauase they bring more fans."

And to Joe, that's not too surprising, even if he's not a Packers fan himself. 

"(The Packers are) a friendly, happy, good time, great football team."
