[url="http://www.packers.com/news/releases/2006/01/31/1/"]http://www.packers.com/news/releases/2006/01/31/1/[/url] Email | Print Packers Hall Of Fame To Induct Reggie White posted 01/31/2006 Reggie White Former Packers defensive end Reggie White will be inducted into the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame at the 36th Hall of Fame Induction Banquet, to be held the evening of July 22, 2006, in the Lambeau Field Atrium. White, who passed away on Dec. 26, 2004, is the most honored athlete ever to play defensive end in the NFL and was a key player for the Packers' 1996 team that won Super Bowl XXXI. In honor of the huge impact "The Minister of Defense" had during his six-year Packers career (1993-98), the Packers retired his No. 92 at the 2005 home opener, Sept. 18, vs. Cleveland. White joined the Packers as the NFL's most sought-after free agent in 1993 and immediately elevated the performance of the Green and Gold's defense. After finishing 23rd in the league in 1992, the unit rose to No. 2 in 1993. The defense ranked No. 1 during the 1996 championship season, the first such ranking since 1967. White went on to finish his Packers' career with 681/2 sacks and made the Pro Bowl each year, capping off his Green Bay tenure as the 1998 NFL Defensive Player of the Year. In NFL annals, White ranks second all-time with 198 career sacks. Additionally, he was elected to the NFL's 75th anniversary all-time team and is the only member of Pro Football Weekly's all-decade team for both the 1980s and 1990s. In addition to White's induction, the Hall of Fame will formally induct this year's FAN honoree, Kathy Lazzaro. Tickets for the banquet, which begins with cocktails at 4:30 p.m., with dinner and program to follow at 7 p.m., are $110 each. Tables of 10 also are available and seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. Early reservations are recommended. To purchase tickets, call Gwen Borga at 920/965-6984, or e-mail her at [email="gborga@packerhalloffame.org"]gborga@packerhalloffame.org[/email]. The Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame, Inc. is a non-profit corporation independent of the Green Bay Packers that guides the Hall as a historic national sports venue and educational resource to the Green Bay community and the state of Wisconsin. The Hall raises funds through its annual induction banquet, golf outing and other events to develop new exhibits and expand its archives. Historic memorabilia donated by individuals to the Hall may qualify as tax-deductible gifts. This year's golf outing is set for July 10 and another event, an Alaskan cruise with Bart Starr, is set for May 27 through June 3.
