Boy finally takes off Brett Favre jersey — after over 4 years
We’ll be the first to admit we don’t have the patience for this kind of indulgence. That jersey would have been conveniently “lost” after the first month. And was this kid home schooled? We would have thought peer pressure would have made him shed his prized possession a long time ago.
David Witthoft finally shunned his Brett Favre jersey for a red shirt for the first time in 1,581 days.
The 12-year-old Ridgefield, Conn. boy wore the No. 4 jersey every day since receiving it as a gift for Christmas in 2003.
David’s father, Chuck Witthoft, says Monday that his son’s last day wearing the jersey was April 23 on his 12th birthday. Witthoft conceded his son was starting to become more concerned about his appearance after the jersey barely came down to his belt line.
