Go watch films of NFL games in the 1960s, a lot of fields consisted more of dirt than grass.

—”Go watch films of NFL games in the 1960s, a lot of fields consisted more of dirt than grass.”

And do not forget the famous ICE BOWL at Greenbay back in the day! Some say the best game ever!

Just ask around in Chicagoland, must have been a couple hundred thousand in the stadium that day!! Probably more.

Everyone has a friend or a relative that was at that game back in the 1960’s...

The way I heard it the players could not see the field or the ball. But Ray Nitschke could smell the Polish sausage grease someone secretly applied to the ball.
