  • The Ice Bowl: the Cold Truth About Football's Most Unforgettable Game
    SPORTS | FOOTBALL $16.95 GRUVER An insightful, bone-chilling replay of pro football’s greatest game. “ ” The Ice Bowl —Gordon Forbes, pro football editor, USA Today It was so cold... THE DAY OF THE ICE BOWL GAME WAS SO COLD, the referees’ whistles wouldn’t work; so cold, the reporters’ coffee froze in the press booth; so cold, fans built small fires in the concrete and metal stands; so cold, TV cables froze and photographers didn’t dare touch the metal of their equipment; so cold, the game was as much about survival as it was Most Unforgettable Game About Football’s The Cold Truth about skill and strategy. ON NEW YEAR’S EVE, 1967, the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers met for a classic NFL championship game, played on a frozen field in sub-zero weather. The “Ice Bowl” challenged every skill of these two great teams. Here’s the whole story, based on dozens of interviews with people who were there—on the field and off—told by author Ed Gruver with passion, suspense, wit, and accuracy. The Ice Bowl also details the history of two legendary coaches, Tom Landry and Vince Lombardi, and the philosophies that made them the fiercest of football rivals. Here, too, are the players’ stories of endurance, drive, and strategy. Gruver puts the reader on the field in a game that ended with a play that surprised even those who executed it. Includes diagrams, photos, game and season statistics, and complete Ice Bowl play-by-play Cheers for The Ice Bowl A hundred myths and misconceptions about the Ice Bowl have been answered.

  • College All-Star Football Classic, August 2, 1963 • All-Stars 20, Green Bay 17
    College All-Star Football Classic, August 2, 1963 • All-Stars 20, Green Bay 17 This moment in pro football history has always captured my imagination. It was the last time the college underdogs ever defeated the pro champs in the long and storied history of the College All-Star Football Classic, previously known as the Chicago Charities College All-Star Game, a series which came to an abrupt end in 1976. As a kid, I remember eagerly awaiting this game, as it signaled the beginning of another pro football season—which somewhat offset the bittersweet knowledge that another summer vacation was quickly coming to an end. Alas, as the era of “big money” pro sports set in, the college all star game quietly became a quaint relic of a more innocent sporting past. Little by little, both the college stars and the teams which had shelled out guaranteed contracts to them began to have second thoughts about participation in an exhibition game in which an injury could slow or even terminate a player’s career development. The 1976 game was played in a torrential downpour, halted in the third quarter with Pittsburgh leading 24-0, and the game—and, indeed, the series—was never resumed. But on that sultry August evening in 1963, with a crowd of 65,000 packing the stands, the idea of athletes putting financial considerations ahead of “the game” wasn’t on anyone’s minds. Those who were in the stands or watching on televiosn were treated to one of the more memorable upsets in football history, as the “college Joes” knocked off the “football pros,” 20-17.

    47 1965 packerscentury.com packerscentury.com 1965 ___________________ Record: 10-3-0 NFL Champions Coach: Vince Lombardi • Curly Lambeau died on June 1, 1965. The Packers renamed City Stadium in his honor. • Hopes were high for this season. After missing the championship game for two years, a return to the top was the goal. • Green Bay had the #1 defense in the league. They gave up the fewest points, the fewest touchdown passes, and they picked- off the most passes (27). • Baltimore and Green Bay finished at 10-3-1 in the Western Conference. Though the Packers beat the Colts twice during the regular season, a playoff game would determine the conference champion. • Green Bay returned to the championship game against the defending champion Cleveland Browns at Lambeau Field. Jim Becker, Member, Packer FAN Hall of Fame * In July, Jim and four of his children – Tom, Rob, Paul, & Kathy – went to a Packer practice during training camp. Between the morning and afternoon sessions, they watched a commercial being filmed featuring Lombardi and Herb Adderley. As Jim and the kids watched excitedly, Lombardi spotted a few bicycles laying on the ground near the set. He snapped to no one in particular, “get those bikes out of here!” Tom and Rob Becker, who didn’t own the bikes, jumped at Lombardi’s command and moved the bikes out of the way! * Interview: 2/13/17 PACKERS 41 PITTSBURGH 9.19.1965 STEELERS 9 Good Start The last time the Packers opened the season outside of Green Bay or Milwaukee was in 1948! That season began with a shutout of the Boston Yanks, but the Packers finished 3-9.
