“In Green Bay, There’s a Place Called St. Norbert College…”: Aaron Rodgers Drops His Latest Ghost Conspiracy Story

Aaron Rodgers has an affinity for conspiracy theories and the supernatural, evident in how he questioned the legitimacy of COVID-19 or claimed that the Sandy Hook tragedy wasn’t real. To some, it’s a tiresome and pointless act. But not to Rodgers. And true to form, he shared another conspiracy that he believes. 

Ghosts always pique interest and intrigue. While there’s no scientific evidence to support their existence, studies state that 40-50% of Americans believe they are real. And Rodgers is pretty much part of that group. 

In his latest interview, the four-time MVP recalled a chilling ghost story from the time he was with the Green Bay Packers. The incident, it seems, pushed him toward believing in the paranormal.

The story dates back to training camp, where Green Bay’s players often stayed at St. Norbert College, a place already surrounded by unsettling rumors about paranormal occurrences.

“In Green Bay, there’s a place called St. Norbert College. Which is like, I don’t know, this small Catholic college. Unfortunately, there were some suicides that happened at the dorms that we stayed at,” Rodgers started on Not Just Football. 

“And there were rumors that it was haunted. One night in camp… Probably ‘07, ‘08, there was a ghost sighting in the corner of a room,” he continued, adding that another person in the dorm saw the entity as well.

“The next night, the adjacent room to that person saw a ghost in the same corner, just on the opposite side of the wall. So, I think ghosts are a very interesting conspiracy,” said Rodgers, who also revealed that the two who saw the ghosts had not spoken to each other before or after the encounter.

It was an odd incident that Rodgers never got an explanation for. Funny enough, St. Norbert College recently made headlines for layoffs, with some calling the town a, wait for it, “ghost town.”

Besides ghosts, there are other intriguing stuff and entities in the newly minted Steelers quarterback’s conspiracy stories.

Rodgers’ AirPods conspiracy

Rodgers’ most notable recent claim is that AirPods and Bluetooth headphones in general are “harmful to the brain.”  To avoid harm, Rodgers sticks to wired headphones.

Fans have even poked fun at him for it, mainly calling him old. Despite the jokes, Rodgers has stood firm on his choice.

“Your girl, Kamala [Harris], just came out and talked about the importance of wearing wired headphones. So, I think it should be a trend,” the QB joked.

Harris did warn people recently about Bluetooth headphones, but for totally different reasons. She contended that others can tap into your Bluetooth headphones and listen to your private conversations. It was not based on the idea that they’re harmful to one’s health.

Health experts have denounced claims that Bluetooth and EMF exposure are harmful. Nevertheless, Rodgers hasn’t moved away from his belief. Which isn’t surprising, considering he’s a man who once challenged mainstream science over the legitimacy of a vaccine. 

Rodgers takes stubbornness to another level. He believes in crazy things and will bring up evidence that supports his claims, moving the goalposts, if you will. Furthermore, he’s very patronizing, which we saw throughout his fight against vaccines.

So, it’s hard to listen to his conspiracy theories in good faith and take them seriously. People mostly brand it as a quirk in his personality.
