Tickets For Favre Induction Ceremony Sell Out
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP/WCCO) — Proceeds from ticket sales to watch Brett Favre's induction into the Green Bay Packers' Hall of Fame on the Lambeau Field video boards will benefit his charity — Favre 4 Hope.
Those tickets at $4 a piece went sale at 10 a.m. Tuesday. As of Wednesday, all 67,000 tickets had been sold. The banquet and ceremony will be held in the stadium atrium on July 18. More than 1,600 will attend that sold-out event.
