Born in Russia but immigrating to Wisconsin at the age of four, Charles "Buckets" Goldenberg would play college football in his home state of Wisconsin and would remain in the “Badger State” as a professional by signing with the Green Bay Packers in 1933. The Packers would be the only team he would play for and would stay with until 1945. Goldenberg excelled at both sides of the ball and was named a Pro Bowl in 1939, but more importantly, he helped the Packers win three NFL Championships (1936, 1939 & 1944). He would be chosen for the 1930’s All-Decade Team.
