They're tying to woo No. 4 back Brad Biggs
Minnesota Vikings fans are making their feelings known in Hattiesburg, Miss.
They want No. 4 back and they’ve got a billboard to prove they do.
There is considerable speculation about whether or not Brett Favre will return for a second season with the purple and gold, and there will be for some time, right? But Vikings fans have banded together to let him know how they feel.
They’ve ponied up for a digital billboard on U.S. 98 West in the city as of Monday night, according to a report in the Hattiesburg American.
“Hey #4, do Minnesota fans love you and want you back next year? You Brettcha!" the ad reads. It’s in purple, of course.
It all started with a Facebook group and the movement took off. The group is adding more than 10,000 members a day and apparently collecting enough money to put the word out on Favre where he lives.
“I had no idea what to expect,” founder Jay Tappe, of Minneapolis, told the American. “We have enough to keep the billboard up for at least another week. We’ll try to keep it up for about a month. It’s crazy.”
Crazy, indeed. Just as crazy as Favre’s agent Bus Cook releasing photos of Favre’s bruised ankle and hamstring after the NFC Championship Game.

@ gbjoe Or a former Packer........
In a related story, Dr. Heimlich has hung a Favre poster in his waiting room...
PSSSSST ! VIKING FANS HE DOESN'T GIVE A SQUAT WHAT YOU WANT OR THINK......IT'S AN EGO THING !....... O'le Chilly is probably leading the bunch in sucking up to Favre.
He's a warrior. Granted, he's ego-maniacal and a big game choker. But he's a warrior.
I have always been a Vikings fan and for all the prejudice and small-minded people...I never said Favre sucked when he was a Packer...keep your reality to yourself

besrerker thinks if he keeps saying things over and over again they must be true. and i have read thousands and thousands of posts in the past when favre was a packer from vike fans saying he sucked. funny how things changed once he put that ugly purple helmet on. one thing did not change the vikings will always be chokers, i think the 99 atlanta choke was my favotite but i did enjoy the 3 fumble 2 pick game and 12 dopes in the huddle.
Brett Favre Rocks and at least in Minnesota they are showing respect to a true Hall of Fame Warrior. It must really piss off the insecure arm chair Quarter-Backs that he just had his best year statistically; years after he was SUPPOSEDLY too old and washed up LOL !!!
Over 90,000 fans have already signed up to a FaceBook page in less than a week because the man is a NFL legend, just handle it !!
And just what did all those stats get Brent? He certainly played a better regular season that he has in a couple of years for the Pack. Probably because he didn't have the sense of entitlement with the Vikes, and actually played it a little safer.
But his playoffs look just like his failures against the Rams, Eagles, Giants. Can't get it done when it counts anymore. When the chips are down and he has some pressure and thinks he's gotta get it done himself, he'll do what you saw against the saints.

The best part about this is that they put up the billboard when Favre wasn't even in town. Dumbasses.

Well Over 5000 fans a day are signing up and donating every day to show Brett their support. Just handle the fact he is appreciated in Minnesota and is getting an unprecedented show of appreciation from his fans !!

Why didn't he call the coaching staff. He calls his agent for a convenient excuse. Seems McKinnie has no accountability and hasn't grown up.

i love how the vike fans who said he sucked for 18 years want him back so bad, what a joke. bottom line is he does not suck and never has he is human and will let you down, but he is a winner and better than any qb the vikes have now. having said that, the interception to end the vikes season was beautiful . what do you call a viking with a superbowl ring? A THIEF
