Packers sell 67,000 tickets for Brett Favre's team Hall of Fame ceremony

Brett Favre will once again enter Lambeau Field with a jubilant full house in attendance.

The Green Bay Packers sold 67,000 tickets to the Packers Hall of Fame ceremony, where the 45-year-old quarterback's career will be celebrated.

Favre will be honored July 18, with the former star quarterback expected to make a speech. The Packers Hall of Fame is located in Lambeau Field's atrium.

Tickets for the ceremony were sold at $4 apiece Tuesday.

"We are looking forward to sharing the excitement for Brett Favre's induction into the Packers Hall of Fame with 67,000 fans viewing the banquet on the video boards in Lambeau Field," Packers Hall of Fame Inc. president Perry Kidder said via the team's official website. "We are pleased with the enthusiastic response to this viewing opportunity, which will be a special complement to a historic evening."

NFL Network and Packers.com will both broadcast the event.

Favre played for the Packers from 1992-2007, winning a Super Bowl and three consecutive MVP awards (1995-97) with the club. The 11-time Pro Bowler holds numerous NFL records, including the most career passing yards, completions and wins.
