All the cheering was a welcome sound for business owners who almost didn't make it to Christmas this year.
"After last year with COVID, it was a very difficult year. We almost went under," said Patrick Guenther, co-owner of Kelly's Bleachers. "We came back strong with the Brewers season, obviously sports is a big part of our business."
After Rodgers broke the record, Favre came on the video board with a message congratulating him – and telling Rodgers to go get another Super Bowl.
