Bears outlast Packers at Lambeau to spoil Brett Favre?s special night

Call it a Thanksgiving night of highs and lows for the Packers faithful.

At halftime on a rainy, sloppy holiday night at Lambeau Field, screaming, drenched Packers fans watched in delight as their legendary quarterback, Brett Favre, the man they once booed when he returned to this very field in a Vikings uniform in 2009, had his retired number unveiled during a touching and heartfelt ceremony.

Two quarters later, with 25 seconds left in the game and Green Bay down 17–13 to the Bears, those same drenched, screaming fans watched as their current star quarterback, and possible future legend, scrambled and threw the ball toward Davante Adams in the end zone.
