History will be made tonight as the Chicago Bears visit Lambeau Field to face the Packers. This marks the first time Green Bay has hosted a Thanksgiving game since 1923. 

Former Packers quarterback Brett Favre will have his name revealed in the team's 'Ring of Honor' at halftime of the contest. Bart Starr, recovering from a series of health setbacks will be in attendance tonight for the ceremony.

Rain is expected to be a factor tonight. Fans are reminded umbrellas are not allowed inside the stadium. Ponchos and raincoats will be allowed.

Fans seated in the stadium bowl are asked to arrive early and help turn Lambeau Field into a ring of stars and stripes during the national anthem by participating in the fan card stunt.

Game attendees will find a card taped to their seat with directions indicating when to hold it up and which side to have facing up. Fans will be prompted by a group at the bottom of each section holding up cue cards. The cards also will be used to display a second message to honor Brett Favre following the anthem.
