Several Sports writers then, who had covered County Stadium games for the Packers, Brewers and old Braves, wrote that Favre's clinching TD was the loudest they ever heard any crowd at County Stadium.
I was in the upper deck at county stadium for this game. I literally thought the stadium was going to collapse. Craziest loud reaction by a crowd ever.
Johnny Roberts Actually it was built to lure in a MLB and an NFL team to Milwaukee. The NFL in the 60s told the packers to either add capacity to Lambeau Field or move into County Stadium.
I remember watching a game on TV I was thinking to myself man it must suck for the fans having to leave Lambo to come here the sight lines looked awful
Hard to believe this was 30 years ago….the intro music was so cool…everything felt better back then….we didn’t have to worry about seeing Taylor Swift in box seats or listen to commentary that walks in egg shells and has to be very careful what they say…I’m so glad I was born in 73
To think that Favre clinched a playoff spot against his former teammates is crazy. The Packers had an up and down season that year but Favre refused to let his team lose.
I love this game and the memory. I was a 19 year old USAF airman stationed at KI Sawyer AFB in the UP of Michigan. I was raised in Wisconsin and this Packers winning the big games thing was still a pretty new thing to me. After a childhood of disappointment and near misses (1989) this sort of stuff felt like heaven.
Thank you so much for the highlights dude. Love this game! Too bad NFL games are pretty much done on Baseball fields, with the exception of the Raiders who are moving in 2 years so we're coming to an end of an era
I was at this game when I was a kid. County Stadium was interesting but was not a football stadium. Not a lot of people know that both teams were on the same side of the field! Bizarre!
Man I grew up in Milwaukee. I was lucky enough to see the Robin Yount's 3,000 hit. Myself and two buddies had upper box seats for the game prior to the 3000th hit. He didn't get it that night. After his last at bat we RAN to the ticket window AND somehow we got reg. Mezzanine seats. The most expensive were Deluxe Mezz. but those were never available. They were pricey, but we got 3 and sure enough CRACK he did it. Sorry off topic. My point was growing up I was lucky to see so many iconic games at County Stadium. Hell ai even got to see PINK FLOYD at County Stadium. It was AMAZING. As for Packers games, my Dad, my Grandfather, and I went to my first game against the Lions. 9-21-75 we lost 30-16. That started it all. I went to 10 or so more games. It wasn't a good football stadium. It actually kinda sucked...lol. But I some so many amazing memories there. From Brewers autographs, great games, Packers games, a Wrestling event, Pink Floyd. County Stadium is a great place for me. I miss the old place.
As a Packers fan, this is a fantastic video to watch. Its also really sad when you consider Sterling Sharpe career ended the following week againts the Buccaneers.
it was supposed to end in this game, but he came back a week later to get you guys in the playoffs with 3 TDs while having a broken neck. Somehow he's not in the hall of fame.
The legacy of the Milwaukee games continue. The first preseason game and the 2nd and 5th regular season game are in a separate gold package season ticket. Though everyone calls them the Milwaukee games. They were offered first to milwaukee season ticket holders and then to the regular waiting list. Also i was conceived the month before this game.
I was there. Season ticket holder Sec D Row 14 Seat 2 out in the bleachers at the Atlanta 45 or so. Have the ticket mounted with a Favre autographed photo depicting the dive from the NE corner of the upper deck. It was insanely loud and absolute pandemonium when he scored. Our entire section toppled like dominoes because everyone was jumping up and down on the bleachers and someone fell forward, lol!!! Most exhilarating moment in sport I ever witnessed. Last County Stadium game, truly a historic and memorable way to end it.
That's pretty funny! I sat in those bleachers for many Brewers games over the year, although they were probably rarely packed in so tight as they would be for a Packers game. I can just imagine the domino effect.
I wish they would have shown Favre getting hurt and the Packers taking a TO the play before. During the TO (which allowed Farve to play the next snap) Mike told Farve "whatever you do, do not run". (the Packers only needed a FG to tie the game)
This is also the last game in which we saw the "pile on the TD scorer" celebration. It was sort of their thing that year. Hologren put an end to that after this game.
52? he seems 102 considering how long his annoying voice, boredom, and commentary has been making people mute their TVs...this means we have at least another 25-30 years of hearing this clown..
@@RASTAGOOB yep, he started calling NFL games for Fox at age 25, the youngest play by play announcer ever, and then became Fox MLB lead announcer at age 27, also the youngest.
I love the highlights! I hope you do the Packers-49ers 1995 playoff game in San Francisco. That was a statement game in the Ron Wolf-Mike Holmgren-Brett Fave era telling us that the Packers could play with anybody and were not afraid to go toe-to-toe with anybody, including the defending Super Bowl champions!
YJMJ I had my ear to the radio at a family Christmas party because we only had Minnesota channels so ; I listened to Brett Take that game winner in back when I was a kid. To proove that I note to you that I already predicted the out come and typed this before the video finished to see what happens . Ryder Gambit.
Obersports what is confidence level on packers Super Bowl chances? Also this season all 4 nfc north at time central teams made playoffs except Tampa bay which was cool that 4 teams in a division made playoffs.
Raghav Srinivasan They’ve got a shot, as always, as long as Rodgers is their QB. If defense is anything above average they’ll be one of the best teams in the league.
That team was a Beast! Only T buck and nose tackle jurkavich wer weak links against Dallas in the playoffs! Newsome and Grave Digger made us World Champs! To Bad Sterling got hurt! He was unstoppable!
For many years until 1994 the Packers played part of their home schedule in Milwaukee to be able to financially stay alive. By 1994, they played three games in Milwaukee per season, but by this time, the Packers were actually losing money by playing part of the schedule there, so, beginning in 1995, the Packers played their entire schedule in Green Bay. The Packers have maintained the Milwaukee season ticket package to this day.
Essentially, the Packers, in order to preserve the franchise with needed ticket revenue during the depression, used the larger attendance of Milwaukee games. They scheduled home games from 1933 - 1994. Their first hosting of an NFL Championship, the 1939 game vs the NY Giants, was also played in Milwaukee (State Fair Park). The 1957 NFL requested the Packers to move permanently to Milwaukee County Stadium because of the inadequate old City Stadium in Green Bay. The Packers chose to build a new stadium (today's Lambeau Field). The pre merger AFL attempted to locate a franchise in Milwaukee for 1968 but Packer GM and Head Coach Lombardi refused to share a lease of County Stadium. Lombardi submitted to team sponsors and scheduled a Packer home playoff game at County Stadium versus the LA Rams in December 1967. Milwaukee's loyalty to the Packers was assured and the Packer Organization reciprocated and played in Milwaukee til nearly the mid 1990's. The Packers all time record at County Stadium was an impressive 76-47-3.
@@markmelchior726 My dad and his cousins have the Milwaukee season tickets. They got their slot for cheap back when the Packers couldn't give them away and they always make sure at least someone fills the seats, lest they lose them. Sometimes my bro and I go with. They get 2 regular season games a year plus a preseason game.
My fellow Packer fans, love ya to death, but your just wrong. Joe Buck is awesome and Troy stinks. Buck and his hero (combat vet father) are huge supporters of every Midwest team
I went to this game with my late Mother in Law. She introduced me to sour kraut. Took the bus from the Brown Deer park and ride. Totally awesome.
That last second touchdown run by Brett Favre is the one play that I will never forget.
For me it’s up there with the the TD pass to Sharpe to beat Detroit.
I remember watching it live as a kid. I couldn't fucking believe it.
Several Sports writers then, who had covered County Stadium games for the Packers, Brewers and old Braves, wrote that Favre's clinching TD was the loudest they ever heard any crowd at County Stadium.
So awesome! Love my state so much
Well, I was at the 1982 AL Championship game 5, and THAT was pretty loud too!
@@johnperrigo6474 I'm sure but this being last game ever by Pack in Milwaukee, all sorts of energy that day
What a game. Anyone else catch Bill Goldberg congratulating Brett Favre at 12:48???
It was so much better back then…you could feel it in the air..now a days it’s all about feeling and social media and “staged” events
I was in the upper deck at county stadium for this game. I literally thought the stadium was going to collapse. Craziest loud reaction by a crowd ever.
Still have the ticket stub to this game!!!
County Stadium was never meant to host football, but this is a great memory

I Miss County stadium
Fun to see that old footage from when I was 11. Caddied for Chris Jackie that summer. Man did he blow that game. He was a good tipper though.
My mom lived down the hall from him at an apartment complex in Green Bay. He’d come over and kill spiders in her apartment for her haha
I remember my Buffalo Bills brought him into training camp to compete against Steve Christie I think they cut Jackie the second week into camp
that still sends chills down my spine
Thank you so much for the highlights dude. Love this game! Too bad NFL games are pretty much done on Baseball fields, with the exception of the Raiders who are moving in 2 years so we're coming to an end of an era
Thanks so much for posting...I remember that day so vividly...it was the day when the Packers became Brett Favre's team.

I couldn't remember if Sharpe got hurt this game or the following
it was supposed to end in this game, but he came back a week later to get you guys in the playoffs with 3 TDs while having a broken neck. Somehow he's not in the hall of fame.
I was at that game the crowd was unbelievable:)
What great memories... Lived in Sheboygan at the time.
My dad and I went to this game but left early cause we thought the game was over. BIG MISTAKE!!!

I remember watching this game. So great! GB was just starting to get good.
Awesome to hear (I didn't know) that Clay Matthews Sr. played in this game.
Bennett was never the same after tearing his Achilles in 97. He was a beast before that though
In a future Super Bowl, I recall Favre to Rison against the Patriots for the game's first score.
yup
Deion Sanders, Brett Favre, and Andre Rison played for the Falcons
But they won Super Bowls with other teams
That maybe 10 yard bullet pass from Favre to the TE hurt my hands. You not only could hear the thud, you felt ittt...
Favre shaking hands with his former Falcon teammates. Refreshing to see that. He was a small but integral part of the 1991 “2 Legit” team.
7:27 mark had me scratching my head for an instant

I have 2 turnstiles, 2 seats a few bricks and a barred ticket window from the Stadium
Brett Favre
12:49 brett favre and Bill goldberg
From sharing a football field with Brett Favre to pinning Hulk Hogan for the world championship, that man has lived life. No doubt.
Cool seeing both teams share the same sideline.
It’s hard to believe Joe Bucks only 52 years old, seems like he’s been doing this forever
52? he seems 102 considering how long his annoying voice, boredom, and commentary has been making people mute their TVs...this means we have at least another 25-30 years of hearing this clown..
So he wasn’t even 25 years old when he called this game?

They aired this game in Minnesota. Vikings played Lions in Detroit on Saturday that week.

Isn't this the stadium where both teams share the same sideline ???
11:21 this is why we’re here .. this is why we’re here ..
Brett Favre magic, last game at Milwaukee Stadium, and the action called by 25 year old rookie play-by-play man Joe Buck.

hey- bear was doing saints radio even recently
That team was a Beast! Only T buck and nose tackle jurkavich wer weak links against Dallas in the playoffs! Newsome and Grave Digger made us World Champs!
To Bad Sterling got hurt! He was unstoppable!
Notice how both teams had to share the same sideline, just like at Metropolitan Stadium in Minnesota.
That's insane
11:34 you blew another lead, huh?
Well, at least it was only 3 points this time…
Did anybody attend the 1988 WWF wrestlefest held here?
Just fyi this is the game Joe Buck pissed in a bottle while calling a touchdown at the same time in the booth.
So amazing considering falcons completely disrespected him when he was there. This is what redemption looks like
And how 'bout that young 25-year-old fellow calling this game...a fellow by the name of Joe Buck...
He sounds so different lol. It’s like he’s trying to do an impression of Pat Summerall.
Chills

No. He played the next week, but that was he last game. He never made it into a playoff game and retired after the season.
As a Packer Fan, It's crazy to see Sharpe, Brooks and Rison playing in the same game.
Joe Buck was terrible even in 1994.
