For Brett Favre, regaining popularity in Wisconsin and forging friendship with Aaron Rodgers just a matter of time

Brett Favre was back in his quasi-adopted home state Saturday, once again feeling the love that he seemed so unlikely to regain not all that long ago.

Playing in the annual celebrity foursome at the American Family Insurance Championship for the fourth consecutive year, the iconic former Green Bay Packers quarterback enjoyed every minute of the nine-hole celebrity exhibition at University Ridge, which this year also included golf legend Jack Nicklaus, country music star Toby Keith and Madison’s own two-time U.S. Open champion Andy North, who is an annual staple like Favre.

Before teeing off, though, Favre had to clarify one thing: He’s not plotting an NFL comeback in 2020, as had been reported on Favre’s own verified Instagram account at midweek.
