Packers RB A.J. Dillon surprises fans during Lambeau Field tour

Green Bay Packers running back A.J. Dillon doesn’t just truck tacklers and random baseball mascots into smithereens. He’s also becoming quite the fan favorite in the Wisconsin areas by connecting with fans across the state in a variety of ways.

On Monday, Dillon paused a commercial shoot he was filming and surprised fans doing a stadium tour at Lambeau Field. Fully dressed in his green and gold uniform, Dillon stopped to talk with the excited tour-goers and took photos with kids and families for a few minutes before resuming his other responsibilities inside the stadium.

In the background of the video, someone (possibly the tour guide) says, “That, folks, is someone you don’t want to tackle.” Elvis the Kingfish found that out the hard way in Kenosha this past weekend.

This moment is one perk of doing a tour of Lambeau Field; there’s always a chance of randomly running into a player in the facility. On this occasion, Dillon went out of his way to make sure he made a lasting memory for this lucky group of fans.

Dillon, a second-round pick of the Packers in 2020, broke out in a big way during his second season in 2021. He rushed for a team-high 803 yards, caught 34 passes, scored seven total touchdowns and produced over 1,100 total yards.
