Beautiful. That game was my earliest football memory. My mother was sick with the flu and I ran in to their bedroom, waking her up, to tell her Bart Starr had won the game going, across the goal line. She was net as impressed as I was, but she took it well.
Those were real men playing in those horrible conditions. Unbelievable amount of heart and guts by both teams but especially the Packers who found the internal reserve to fight through those last 68 yards against a brutally tough Dallas defense. HUGE amount of respect to all that played in this game.
@Agent Orange Hi Rayfield. It's an honor to correspond with you! I'm very familiar with you and your great HOF career. You were an outstanding player on an outstanding team. All the respect in the world to you and all of the players from your tough era - in my opinion, the greatest era of all-time. I hope you're healthy and happy sir. All the very best!
As a boy. i remember watching that game with my dad. The one thing that sticks out in my mind was watching Bob Hayes, (RIP) running his pass patterns, with his hands in his pockets
That actually cued the Packers into something significant. Whenever he would take his hands out of his pockets, they would double cover him bc they knew he was an important part of the play. Hands in pockets? Left him almost completely uncovered. Really a rather selfish thing to do by Hayes.
I'm a Tom Landry-era Dallas Cowboys fan, since 1964. I've seen many great games played, some I've attended, but most on TV. I have to say that the Ice Bowl is the greatest game these eyes have ever seen. Of course I wish that the outcome would have been different, but that's the way the ball bounces. IMO, the Lombardi Packers are the greatest dynasty in NFL history. God bless our pro football heroes from a bygone era.🏈
When you hear the testimonies, it's clear that the Packers focused on their opponent, while the Cowboys were more focused on the weather and how miserable they were.
True. Over the years I have heard rumors that somebody walked off with all of the Cowboys thermal underwear or that they simply did not bring any to the game (though it was later said they bought some at a local sporting goods store). Either way, it was avoidable and they have no one to blame but themselves and should have won the game. Also remember that Jerry Kramer did admit later on that he jumped too early at the goal line plunge and that's how the Pack scored the winner. Whatever it was, this was one great game and I shall always be glad to say I saw live on TV back then. To this day, I have not missed even one Super Bowl.
Working at Larry's Piggly Wiggly in Kaukauna I was asked if I wanted to attend the Dallas vs Packers Sunday game. For an 18 year old High School Senior I do not recall the "Cold Weather." I was a Packer Backer for life and the game was marvelous...Coach Lombardi & Coach Landry represented excellence and respect. In the end the Dallas Team saw what hard work and tenacity can do for the "Champions or America's Packers." Thomas j. Vanderloop, A Witness to a Winning NFL Football Game in December 1967; Author & Teacher
I remember being a kid and thinking that a team like Green Bay had the advantage in cold weather games due to being from a cold weather state. That is anything but true
Some day I would love to see a documentary about the fans who attended this game. I'm sure there's some interesting stories. My brother-in-law was one of them.
Wow, you know some one who was there? Amazing. I wish I could interview him and ask him if he has yet thawed out. I heard it was -88 degrees on game day and the wind chill was below -200, colder than a day on Venus.
@@quantumpotential7639 To this day many of the fans who attended the “Ice Bowl” remain frozen in place. Ofc the Packers had them removed from the stadium (construction machinery was used to lift the obese).
Too late to fix, of course, but it is a testament to the sad state of regional and national media that Marv Fleming's last name is misspelled in this video.
And the Packers would after this season fall into oblivion for 20yrs. meanwhile,Dallas Cowboys would become America's Team win 2 SB'S and play in 5 during the 70's.
What is being left unsaid here is that is Kramer moved before the ball was snapped & that referees overlooked him doing & never called that.He admitted that is what happened since then to
50 YEARS LATER and we're STILL hearing about Kramer... who lifted his right hand 1/10 of a second before the snap...HOW could ANY ref see that...??? Little d had 68 yards to stop the Pack and they couldn't so they blame Kramer and the refs...No where have I ever read that the refs overlooked it...Only the film, in super low motion, picked it up...That isn't why little d lost... they, according to Bob Lilly, CHOKED under pressure... GET OVER IT...!
The only way to detect Kramer lifting his hand a millisecond before the ball was snapped is to slow the film down frame by frame. No way the refs could have seen that at normal speed. Also, in a way, it was poetic justice because Donny Anderson actually scored two plays earlier but a ref from behind the play moved the ball back. This was confirmed by Cornell Green who was standing over Anderson at the goal line.
general...The ref didn't see it. No one did until a frame by frame slow motion clip was shown. Nobody overlooked anything. Do you honestly think Kramer wouldn't have moved Pugh out if he had waited another 1/1000 of a second?
If we slowed down, frame by frame, every play, half of the plays would lead to arguments. Once upon a time, Jerry kramer, god bless him, speculates that maybe he was off one millionth of a second early. Maybe. He talks about it and does it with a smile on his face, as if to say, who knows, get over it, get a life, and now he’s quoted as “admitting” his guilt. He wasn’t admitting anything, he was actually saying that he had never made a better block and had never gotten off the ball faster in his life. At first I felt bad for Jethro Pugh, who was blamed unnecessary for the loss. But then he gets wind of Kramer’s momentary “offsides” speculation, and he can’t let go of it, because hey, at least it gets reporters off his case as the goat of the game. If you want to really see offsides, watch the previous year when Jim Boeke jumps offsides for the Cowboys and they didn’t score and lost to the Packers. Now THAT is an offsides.
The game should never have been played. Huge safety hazard for players and fans. NFL really run by truly awful people like Roselle. Played the Sunday after President Kennedy killed. Everything else cancelled, but NFL played. Simply terrible. Packers one of greatest teams ever, but never should have been placed in this situation.
Still remember watching ICE Bowl. Love the Packers!! They were no Tg going to be defeated!!
Vince Lombardi to Donny Anderson (sometime later): "... you became a man on that drive..."
I am so happy I was able to meet and interview Mr. Ralph Neely before he passed away.

They should have used this a strategury and faked a running play and have Bob Hayes run to the center of the field for a touch down.
They didn't have pockets in those days.
He put his hands in his waist band.🏈

My dad has been a Packer fan way back in the 30s so naturally I was one as well Great memories
TE Marv Fleming won two more Super bowl rings with the 70's Dolphins to close out his career.
So nice to see Jerry Kramer inducted in the hall of fame before he passes away.

I bet those players never complained about a 50 degree day ever again.

Those players were rugged in those days!
Like polar bears.
wussies now
If only we could see the rebroadcast of it!
You CAN get the DVD... they go into great detail of that play..
it's here on youtube
@@pkoven . The entire game?!
Some day I would love to see a documentary about the fans who attended this game. I'm sure there's some interesting stories. My brother-in-law was one of them.
What has he said about the game?

If you talk to people who live in Wisconsin, there were about 2 million people who at that game .
Dalas Cowboys,,a Great football team,,,but the Greatest won on that day 👍
Those old timers who where there say it had nothing to do 50 years later. It was playing right then, in those conditions.
Roger Staubach was in the Navy at the time of The Ice Bowl of 1967.

No way for ref to spot, packers were better , that’s the way God meant it.
It’s the Lombardi trophy not the laundry trophy 🏆 😂

The Ice Bowl was played in December of 1967 ; Jack Kennedy was killed in 1963 .
