GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Two men who worked for the Green Bay Packers during the Brett Favre era are heading to Canton, Ohio -- invited by the Hall of Fame honoree himself.

Jim Dagneau worked in team security during the Favre years while Dean White worked in the video department. Dagneau and White say they're honored that Favre reached out to them with an invitation, but say that's just the kind of guy he is.

White says that while in Green Bay, Favre would tell him to grab his clubs because they were going to Oneida Golf and Country Club. White says he used to tease Favre that when he was inducted in the Hall of Fame White wanted to be there.

The men tell WLUK-TV that having the chance to be reunited with Brett this weekend brings back some great memories.
