Brett Favre wants Packers Hall of Fame ceremony held at Lambeau Field

Brett Favre's induction into the Packers Hall of Fame is scheduled for July 18 in the atrium at Lambeau Field, but the former Green Bay quarterback would prefer to have the ceremony take place inside the stadium itself.

"I know it's been stressful for the Packers especially, but we've gotten a lot of emails as well - it being sold out," Favre told FOX Sports' Greta Van Susteren on Tuesday, according to the Green Bay Press-Gazette. "I would like to see, in my opinion, I'd like to see us do it in the stadium. I think everyone should have a chance to go."

Approximately 1,600 people are expected to attend the 45th Hall of Fame Induction Banquet, which sold out before tickets could be offered to the public due to high interest from sponsors. Lambeau Field seats over 80,000.

"Well, the response has been outstanding," Favre said. "I think everyone should have an option to go and what better way to do it than Lambeau Field. You're right, I didn't play in the atrium. … As you know, that whole facility is second to none in any sport, but there's nothing like Lambeau Field, and even though the atrium's right there, it would be nice to do it in the stadium. Obviously weather's a factor."

Fans will, however, have a chance to see Favre's No. 4 retired. His jersey will be unveiled inside Lambeau Field at a 2015 game yet to be determined.
