The 1934 Green Bay Packers season was their 15th season in the National Football League (NFL). The club posted a 7–6–0 record under coach Curly Lambeau.[1] The Packers played their Milwaukee, Wisconsin home games at Wisconsin State Fair Park.

During this season, a fan fell from the stands at old City Stadium and sued the Packers and won a $5,000 verdict. This caused the insurance company to go out of business and the Packers entered receivership. Green Bay business men raised $15,000 in new capital to prevent the team from folding.[1][2]
