*Que The Queen*……..AIN’T NO WAY!
The Ice Bowl, the coldest game on record in NFL history, is about to get a run for its money.
Temperatures for Sunday’s wild-card game between the San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers, which kicks off at 4:40 p.m. ET in northern Wisconsin, are expected to dip under the 13-below figure that marked the classic NFL Championship game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Packers on Dec. 31, 1967. “Low temperatures may fall to 30 below over north-central portions of Wisconsin … Monday and Tuesday morning,” the National Weather Service office in Green Bay writes (via the Capital Weather Gang). “If you plan on being outside, be sure to dress warm using layered clothing if possible, as frost bite can occur in as little as 10 minutes in these conditions.”
Back in 1967, the Packers buy viagra san jose beat the Cowboys 21-17 on Bart Starr’s quarterback sneak on an icy field with 16 seconds left. As the Packers debated what play to call during a timeout, Coach Vince Lombardi famously told Starr to “run it and let’s get the hell out of here.” Good game plan. Jerry Kramer threw a block on Jethro Pugh, Starr followed him into the end zone and the Packers did just that. The game has grown in legend over the years and, on Friday, players were bracing for just that kind of teeth-chattering/shattering cold. (And being thankful for GoreTex.)
WOULD YOU SIT OUT IN THAT??
