GREENBAY, WI. — Over 67,000 fans showed up to Lambeau Field on July 18 to honor former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre being inducted into the Packers hall of fame. An emotional Favre delivered a heartfelt speech.
“All I can say is wow, wow … This is absolutely amazing. I don’t have the words to express the feeling coming out of that tunnel to this ovation … where else can you get this many people in a stadium when there isn’t a game … nowhere … I could sit here and tell you thank you until tommorrow and it wouldn’t be enough.
