As long as it's not a Giants home game (I personally hate dealing with snow), I love football being played in the snow.

It was a fun game to watch.  No snow to start and then heavy snow in the 2nd half.

I agree. Snow games are great.   I'm a fan.  We had snow the same day though it rarely sticks here in southern Indiana.  Makes me miss my hometown in upstate NY where we had snow for weeks at a time multiple times a year.  Maybe one day I'll move back.  Anyway...

Hopefully we'll get many more snow games.

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

I recall a game back in the 60s where it looked like the snow was several inches high. Maybe the Vikings and either the Chiefs or Rams?
"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."
~ Coach Tom Coughlin

How far upstate, if I may ask, as I did time in the Mohawk Valley for nearly 10 years, save for two in Albany going to college.

The snow that fell in November was usually still around, in pockets, at the final thaw in April. By then, you're so sick of it and depressed due to lack of sun and intense cold you just want to escape. I left in 1992 to join the military and have spent the rest of my life, save for a stint in South Korea, in the lower 48. I'll take the intense heat of Phoenix over 10 feet of snow in the Adirondacks for six months anytime!

That and a snowy football game as well!

Peace!

I grew up in Saratoga county.  I moved to Kentucky in 2013 for work and been in this region since. 

I'm a the exact opposite. Can't stand the heat.  I can always get warmer by adding layers, but I can only take so much off before people get offended.

Same here. I like seasons and since I am a skier I need to be driving distance from the slopes. New England summers rules. I couldn't deal with the South during the summer (and their accents year round). 

We visited the Delaware shore last summer and my wife and I agree it's as far South as we would retire to.
