Fans quickly gathered outside Lambeau Field, many laying down green-and-gold flowers, jerseys, and signs that read â#Forever4â and âWe Love You, Brett.â Social media exploded with messages of support under the trending hashtag #PrayForFavre.
Even longtime rival Peyton Manning expressed his solidarity, writing:
âBrett, your toughness inspired a generation. Youâre not facing this alone.â
