Why You Should Subscribe To Tom Grossi
After 6 years of working both as a teacher and on the channel, I've decided to bet on myself.

Today was my last day as a teacher.
Packast is now my only full time job
Let's take over the world #grossiposse https://t.co/ni1Q8EJSEa
Grossi has a great story. You should want to see him succeed. He quit his dream job that required a master’s degree in education just so he could see how big he could make this show. He’s like a more proletariat version of Jeff Bezos quitting his wealthy Wall Street job to start Amazon. Something like that.
Packast is a great example of why many sports fans are switching to alternative forms of team coverage. What viewers are getting is a super fan who has a better knowledge of the team than much of the mainstream media. His passion for comedy and football is obvious. He isn’t overly critical nor does he say crazy things just to get ratings.
Grossi isn’t an employee covering the team. He’s a fan covering the team.
You don’t have to take my word for it. Come to one of his live game streams. Fans from rival teams donate money to him because they appreciate him so much. He’s a fun dude.
There is one thing that’s on my mind. Grossi does fan reactions videos where he dresses in jerseys of all 32 teams. How long does it take to do that and doesn’t it get tedious after awhile?
What I’d Like To See From Tom Grossi?
Carl. I need more Carl in my life.

A Packers Fan Live Reaction to Drafting Jordan Love (1.6M Views, Published April 24, 2020)
Please God not Jordan Love…

…So Jordan Love shows a lot of potential…
Tom Grossi
This live reaction video has nearly twice as many views as any other video in his catalog. It’s the only one that has exceeded one million views. It accurately portrays the emotional roller coaster that fans felt from when the Packers traded up in the draft to learning that they had drafted a replacement for Aaron Rodgers.
My Favorite Videos
The AFC East’s Reaction To Week 2
What do I even say about this? This was part of his Bruce & Springsteen AFC/NFC East Vids playlist. I watched this video for weeks after it came out. It’s the reason for why I try to never miss any of his divisional reaction skits.
I can’t explain why but it’s gold. Great stereotyping of characters from every fan base, funny puns, and strangely intriguing storylines make for a unique brand of humor that I’m all for.
Some people will watch this without any context and wonder what the hell is going on. That makes it even more special.
I Caught Passes from an NFL QB
Tom, don’t quit your day job.
Mark Murphy, Green Bay Packers President and CEO, I Caught Passes from an NFL QB video
Grossi has done interviews and podcasts with numerous Packers figures from the past and present. This includes Mark Murphy, former running back Ryan Grant, former tight end Jace Sternberger, and No. 3 quarterback Kurt Benkert.
Every now and then those relationships turn into something special. Watch Grossi live out his dream of trying to become a Packers wide receiver on more than just a game of Madden.
An Evening with WildFlower Q&A
WildFlower is probably the most beloved figure in the GCU. During this questions and answers video, Grossi plays his character for more than an hour without having the benefit of a script. He plays it flawlessly.
