The Story of the Ice Bowl

A very brief, yet emotional, short story about one of the greatest plays and games in sports history. As the sports memorabilia agent for Bart Starr and Jim Taylor, I put together the rarest and most beautiful pieces of Packer sports memorabilia that you will ever see.

These are all the photos, canvases, and prints I have in Milwaukee. Although this is a recent video, over a dozen items have already sold; including the last (#9/15) Starr max-inscription jersey, the Don Hutson piece, the 7-player 8x10 black & white framed photo of the Packer Sweep, both 16x20 framed Favre 'Last Packer Win' photos, the 16x20 framed Ray Nitschke piece, the bright artistic framed Packer Sweep print with Jim Taylor-Jerry Kramer-Fuzzy Thurston, one of the HOF Backfield portraits (#2/60), the Lombardi portrait, one of the two framed baseball pieces with Hank Aaron-Warren Spahn-Eddie Mathews, four of the framed Lombardi Legends, the framed Mud Bowl canvas with Taylor and Hornung (I have more of these canvases), and the Brett Favre-Bart Starr arms around each other piece. Although the last three framed pieces shown in the video have sold - the rare Biever Mud Bowl piece signed by all players who played in the game, the Packers 75th Anniversary piece, and the 1966 team with unsigned playing cards; I have ready for you other editions of two of these. I have the last remaining prints of the 75th Anniversary piece available for sale (framed or unframed, same exceptional quality you see in the video) and one more framed, unsigned playing cards piece (very cheap).
***Added to the room, but not shown, is a beautiful limited-edition "Visions of Glory" signed by Starr-Hornung-Taylor-Nitschke and the best ever Bart Starr signed and gorgeously framed 24x36 canvas from SB2, as well as a signed and inscribed limited-edition Ray Nitschke - "Route 66" (88/660), and a very rare (maybe one-of-a-kind) Cassius Clay signed piece. I have added some loose (unframed) limited-edition Jeff Riemer prints - one of Bart Starr, one of Paul Hornung, and one of Tony Canadeo. I have some framed versions of these in the video above. New additions include some Reggie; including a SB31 football signed by Brett Favre - Reggie White - Desmond Howard (not the one in my previous football video) and a 28"x35" signed and framed "Triple Threat - Faith, Hope & Love" print inscribed with the more rare "Phil 1:29", and a "Front Four" helmet signed by SB31 defensive linemen Reggie (with inscription "1 Cor. 13"), Gilbert Brown, Sean Jones, and Santana Dotson. The Reggie signature is centered perfectly at the top and does not touch any other signature, so if you wish, you can wipe the others off for a pure Reggie helmet. I also added a framed (28"x34") Starr-Hornung-Taylor signed print (#342/500), a Bart Starr - Johnny Unitas dual-signed football, and a framed 16x20 dual-signed photo with Reggie White and Brett Favre. Thank you.​​​​

I remember this game as it were yesterday. My dad and I watched it on an old B&W TV set. It was the most thrilling game I ever had the pleasure to watch, I was 17 years old then, and a year later I was doing a tour in Vietnam.

RIP Bart Starr - I watched this game when I was 13 in Berea, KY on our B and W Admiral TV. Watched the whole game and yelled when Kramer got Bart in the end zone. Those were real men. Thanks, fellows.

[@headshotsongs9465]

Don't know how they did it, both teams. -25 below when it ended. Wind chill -35.

[@karengore6194]

My Dad was there, the only of 8 other ticket holders with him. He went alone. I am so impressed with my Dad who is now into his late 80's for dealing with the cold. Also, for this team which was phenomenal.

[@howardford6991]

I was 9 yrs old......born in May 1958. I watched this game at my grandparents house with my Mom and Dad. Grandparents lived just a few blocks away. Watched it with my parents and my grandparents on my grandparent's old black & white console tv set. I was a HUGE Dallas Cowboy fan because my uncle......my mom's youngest brother......lived in Dallas. And we had been to Dallas many times to visit him and my aunt Sarah. My uncle turned me on to the Dallas Cowboys when I was probably 5-6 yrs old. We all watched the game on my grandparents B&W tv.........and I literally cried when the Cowboys lost. I remember my uncle calling on the phone from Dallas immediately after the game was over, and consoling me! My uncle is still alive.....although widowed.......and still lives in north Dallas. He is in his early 80s and I love him dearly for turning me into a Cowboy fan!

[@progressiverebel]

I saw the game on TV, I was very young 18 and now I am old. I never really understood how cold it was on the field .. How long did Vince Lombardi have to live. We were in Vietnam and I had just completed my very first quarter at Shoreline Community College. I had done poorly in one class, but I would do better. It's 48 years later and most of my family is dead now and the US has changed, and not for the better. But football, is the best and when I think back to those days of promise, the light of other days, I have to smile because, I always remember so many of the people that were in our lives. Vince, Tom Landry and all the other coaches are now dead. But I remember them as they were. A few days from now will be another game, and I hope a good clean game with good Ref calls... Auld Lang Synge. American Strong!

[@rickregenfuss5038]

One of the greatest games ever played in the NFL. Jerry Kramer, the right guard who threw the block which allowed Starr to score, has yet to be inducted into the HOF. I do not understand why not.

[@roquey44]

Kramer isn't in the Hall? Really? Well, the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame just inducted Linda Ronstadt in 2014. She was greatness, but the Hall had a stick up their ass for years when it came to her. Seems the boys in Canton, Ohio have that same stick when it comes to Kramer. Dude anchored that great Pack line all those years, threw the greatest block in the history of the game, but ain't in the Hall of Fame? As I said about LInda Ronstadt and rock n' roll, if Canton can't induct Jerry Kramer, they need to close the sum' bitch down RIGHT NOW!!! Go Cowboys. "WE DEM BOYZ!"

This game is my earliest memory of the NFL I was just a kid, maybe 10 years old, and ran in to wake my mother, who was sick in bed with the flu, to tell her Bart Starr had just sneaked across the goal line to win the game. Mom pretended to be happy, even though she was so sick. Damn.

[@stephenwozniak8488]

My only regret is that the great Jim Taylor was not with GB for that epic win. At 21 years old then, I had been a Packer fan from Brooklyn, NY for 10 years before that tremendous game. That was real football in those days.

+PackerBronco I agree 100%. I used to live near the old Met in Bloomington, Minn. That was the greatest "football" field ever. And I wish every team played on grass like that. After all every team trains on it every summer. And every team practices on it during weeks leading up to games. So why not play on it?

I'm a die hard Green Bay Packer fan who has nothing but love and respect for the way The Dallas Cowboys played in this game. They played with everything they had but fell short. The Green Bay Packers owe them a debt of gratitude for giving everything they had because The Ice Bowl wouldn't be the classic legendary game that it was had The Dallas Cowboys not played as great as they did.

[@TheMkarr]

Lombardi was so pissed for the guys rolling up the tarp to soon. Water condensed under & it froze when they rolled it up. Disaster that no one ever spoke of for years.

But he watched this game hoping Green Bay wins. Dad was not a Pacjers fan, not a football fan. But dad was a huge John F Kennedy fan. All he wanted to see was for Dallas to lose. When Starr scored on that QB sneak, I remember dad saying, "that's good. I hate Dallas. I have bad memories of Dallas." That qb sneak may be the most memorable play in 100 year pro football history.

Great play call by Bart Starr.On the sideline Starr told Coach Lombardi that the running backs could not get there footing,so why not run a QB sneak? It worked. Packers go on to win the Superbowl.

[@stevebuss3885]

Starr didn't tell Lombardi or anyone else he was keeping it. Mercein thought he was getting the ball. He threw his arms in the air not to signal touchdown but rather to not be accused of pushing the runner. That's a penalty that almost never gets called today.

[@badboyjin34]

Steve Buss actually yes bart did tell vince that. and vince said good. then let's do that and get the hell out of here. it's cold out.

[@stevebuss3885]

Jonathan Albers I hold in my hand a copy of the the Packers 1968 Yearbook. On pages 14-15 the headline reads "Starr didn't tell anybody he'd keep ball on winning TD." He did indeed say something similar to what you have quoted here but the expectation was that Chuck Mercein (30) was to get the ball and dive through the hole created by Jerry Kramer (64) doing a wedge block on Jethro Pugh (75). If you look at photos or film of the play which can be found on the internet you see Mercein throwing his arms into the air. He's not signally touchdown. He's avoiding a pushing penalty.

[@jameswilson7790]

One more thing to add about the Ice Bowl: When Bart Starr scored the game winning touchdown, the temperature had dropped to -18. The end of the field was a total sheet of ice. And if Starr had been stopped short of the goal line, the Cowboys would have won the game. The Packers were out of time outs. But the Cowboys had their chances too. They settled for a field goal despite getting the ball on the Packer 17 after a muffed punt. And on the first drive of the second half, Meredith fumbled the ball at the Packer 13. And there went 11 points. If the Cowboys had won, the game winning touchdown pass would have been thrown by running back Dan Reeves. Yeah, that Dan Reeves. Okay, that was a few more things. It just goes to show how valiant those players, coaches, fans, cheerleaders and the other staff who braved the austere weather conditions.
