Vikings quarterback Brett Favre ran into a half-full Lambeau Field at 2:37 local time for warm-ups and was met predominantly with boos by the Packers faithful, who once cheered him for the better part of his 16 seasons here. There were a smattering of cheers but he was hit mainly with a negative vibe right out of the tunnel. The chiding didn't last for long, though as once he settled in around the 35-yard line near the Vikings' sideline and began throwing passes with Sage Rosenfels and Tarvaris Jackson, most of the reaction turned toward the home team.
There were more purple jerseys there tonight than I've ever seen before. And you're right Capt, I didnt have any issues with them booing Favre. Although it wasn't nearly as loud as I expected it to be. Favre did get the last laugh though.
