ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Minnesota's governor is salivating at the thought of Brett Favre playing for the Vikings.

Gov. Tim Pawlenty (right) says putting the former Green Bay Packer in purple would be fun for fans. He says it would be "a wonderful little salt to rub in the eyes of some of our Green Bay Packer friends."

Pawlenty laid out the scene: "Can you imagine Brett Favre going into Lambeau Field in Viking purple and maybe even wearing No. 4? There would be audible gasps."

Despite the interstate rivalry, Minnesota and Wisconsin have been working to save money by sharing some state functions and equipment.
