Stuff that happened the year Brett Favre was drafted (1991)

mikehayes19 mikehayes19 posted 8/18/2009 from steadyburn.net

Since Brett seems content to make his swan song a swan overture, I thought it appropriate to reflect on other events from way-back-when in 1991, the year Favre was drafted 33rd overall by the Atlanta Falcons. (Remember the Otzii the Iceman, or the original Sonic the Hedgehog?)

The San Francisco Giants and AT&T Park earned the dubious distinction of being labeled the merchants of the priciest brew in the league - $8.75 for a 20 oz, according to Team Marketing Report's Fan Cost Index.
