The Packers provide 772 seats or spaces for wheelchairs for people with disabilities and their designated companions in Row 61 of the stadium as well as in the club seats. About half of those tickets went to single-game users on a first-come, first-served basis, Wagner said. The remainder went to season-ticket holders or remained vacant.

They already have them available, they would just have to turn them over to a nonprofit which could then distribute them on a single game basis.
