GREEN BAY--The "new" Packers Hall of Fame opened in 2003 in the Lambeau Field Atrium. Hundreds of thousands of fans have walked through the shrine dedicated to Packers history, until now.

Karen Lasater from Pound became the 1,000,000th person to visit the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame.

She and her four grandchildren decided to take a tour of the hall after looking over the packed crowd for Tuesday morning's practice session at Nitschke Field.

For becoming the 1,000,000 visitor,  Lasater was given a lifetime membership to the Packers Hall of Fame, a custom jersey with "HOF 1M Fan," balloons and a cupcake.
