Anybody else here remember the 62 Championship Game
VA Jints : 9:13 am
against the Packers. I do and if my memory serves me correctly, in those days they alternated locations and it was the Giants turn to be home.
In 1961, we were beaten badly by Green Bay and we all thought it was because of the cold weather. And we thought the 1962 game would be different because in New York, the weather wouldn't be so bad.
But it was very cold and windy that day in Yankee Stadium and we lost 16-7 (?).
They didn't televise home games in those days so we had to go to my uncle's home who was able to turn his antenna around so we could watch the game.
I was 15 and heart broken. But that was the last time we faced the Packers in the Playoffs.
It is supposed to be cold this weekend in Green Bay. My wife is from that area and we travel there often to see her family. And when it is cold there, it is cold.
Hope we don't see another Ice Bowl.
