[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1027601, member: 18006"] Not only all my extremities, but two unused tickets in mint condition. Somewhere, anyway. When my dad died 15 years ago, I found them in his things, but of course now I don't now where I put them. I expect they'll turn up again someday, though. They actually look really cool! Lombardi? Yeah, he said as much right then and there. Green Bay didn't even have a quarterback sneak in their playbook; they'd never run that play. At all. So there were no blocking assignments for the line or the backs, and no time to draw it up. Starr told Vince, "I think there's a spot in just the right place where I can get my footing. If we call the give play to Chuck again, and I keep it, I think I can get in." Lombardi listened, nodded his head, and said "what the helll, it's only a game. Run it and let's get the hell out of here." Starr didn't even tell Mercein he was keeping the ball, and Chuck was in total shock when Starr just bolted. But he had the presence of mind to raise both his hands in the air so the officials knew he hadn't helped push Starr over the goal line. Yeah, the network didn't save the game. They didn't even save the tapes of the first two Super Bowls, although quite a bit of footage from all 3 games has been found from other sources over the years and patched together so there is at least some tape fo people to see. I don't think anyone realized how much NFL football was about to explode, and the Lombardi Packers played a key role in making football such a popular sport. [/QUOTE]
