The freezer bowl blows my mind. I tried to go for a walk once when it was -25. At first it didn't seem so bad. I got half way around the block and suddenly thought, 'This was a mistake.' It felt like my body was starting to freeze and the slight breeze felt like absolute murder, especially on my eyes. After getting back in the house, it was a very weird feeling after a few moments.. where the only way I can describe it is my body thawing out. Like every muscle just suddenly relaxed all at once. I actually like cold weather, and can shrug off -15.. but that was terrible. ..and it was nowhere close to -59, so I can't even imagine what that could have been like, let alone trying to run around and play football.
Man when I was a kid, whenever it snowed I would always call my friends and grab a football and we’d play two hand touch in the driving snow, we’d get soaking wet and cold, and mom would always make hot chocolate for us, great times!
I remember when we have a big snowstorm,we would like to use the mound of snow as a defensive line at the one yard line and do the leap of a running back going over the top of the hill, lots of fun!
My high school football field used pig manure as fertilizer, and it rained a lot. It was smelly, but it was sticky. I think our parents used a fire hose to get us clean enough to sit in the car so we could get home.
There's never been weather as bad as the freezer bowl, -59 wind chill and trying to win in that when you're Air Coryell. 135 degree weather change from the humid Miami game to Cincinnati has to be an NFL record as well.
I live in South Jersey and I remember that day very well as it was only slightly "warmer" in my neck of the woods...-46 wind chill and I worked outside in it for nine hours...got home and took a long hot shower to warm my chilled bones and then went back outside for another hour to help my dad service someone's malfunctioning oil heater. I hated Air Coryell so I was pulling bigtime for the Bengals.
@@sludge4125 I remember it was zero degrees in South Jersey that day but the wind was howling bigtime. It was Christmas break during my senior year of college and I was working at a very busy gas station in my hometown to earn some extra money. I was making a "whopping" $3.35/hr in those horrid conditions and since it's hard to count money with gloves on I often had to take them off...good times....LOL.
A little history behind the final play of the Ice Bowl, the play wasn't designed as a QB sneak it was supposed to be a handoff to Donny Anderson and they actually tried that play twice already but Anderson kept losing his footing on the field due to the grass being frozen. So Bart Starr went over to Lombardi and suggested doing a sneak since he was closer to the goal line and Lombardi responded with "Then run it and let's get the hell out of here."

Snow games are great, but I do love that one field goal attempt in the wind where you can tell the kicker is at trying to hook it left but the ball just starts flying off and ends up going out the right sideline on its way to the locker room. Haha.
I will never forget the Freezer Bowl. I live in NE Ohio and it was frigid that day. I played football in cold conditions, but I could not believe anyone could play in 59 degree below wind chill.

That 1976 Steelers vs College All Stars game is something I'll remember for the rest of my life. I seem to recall hearing (maybe reading in the local newspaper) that one reason for calling the game off was that the water was so deep on the field that there was fear that a tackled player might drown.
There was a Browns Bills game with heavy snow and high winds, Phil Dawson actually made a field goal by aiming towards the sideline and letting the wind blow it back ... The most amazing kick I've ever seen ...
I vaguely remember seeing highlights from that game back in the day, but it always stuck with me as the ugliest football weather I've ever seen. I'm definitely gonna go look for a clip of that field goal now.
@@HerCake_MyFace I live up north one of our high school games got 4 inches of snow for our warm ups we tried to clear the field by the end of the game it didn't matter
@@matteatsfries1727 They showed a single catch from it (Deonte Thompson's, I believe) at the end of that segment but the Bills got shafted in the snow segment in general
I played Rugby for Michigan State in the '80's. The worst conditions I can remember had 3 inches of snow on the field then the temperature rose just enough to give us an icy sleet. About an hour before the game the temp dropped to 15 degrees. It was 3 inches of snow covered with a quarter inch of ice. Everyone was bleeding after that game. Not to mention how much every hit hurts more in the cold.
I too have endured similar Rugby conditions. We had an annual snow bowl played in Northern Vermont where those exact conditions already existed when the sun came up that day. 10 inches of snow covered the pitch... topped with an icy 2 inch hard crust. Absolute blood bath. We should have just called Red Cross and donated 2 pints each. Instead we left it in the snow. Another favorite is when the pitch is frozen for the playoffs but thaws when the sun is high in the sky midday...then the sun starts to set and the pitch freezes again for the finals... this time with a billion cleat imprints that make it similar to plating on a giant bed of nails. Still the best sport ever.
@@adamr6794 It took me 10 years of playing to realize that I hated the game- I loved my teammates- but at second row I hated the game. Come home beat to shit, ears and temples bleeding, sore all over, everything hurt for 3 days after a game, etc. I threw my cleats in the garbage can when I was 28. The last team I played with was Battleship Rugby from Mobile, Alabama. The best bunch of guys ever. I just got tired of physically getting beat to shit every weekend. You are a Rugger...I know you understand.
@@paulh7589 Yeah second row does suck. I played from 1995-2015 and they try to goad me into running around now and I have no desire whatsoever at 50. I liked the game better when I started playing.
That week in 2013 where, during the 1:00 slate, you had the Eagles/Lions snow game and the Vikings/Ravens snow game with the iconic finish (craziest two minutes ever) might've been the most fun I've ever had watching football. Not often you get to see a bunch of bad weather games at once and have them all be entertaining, but they were
I remember playing in a Flag Football tournament that day and seeing all the pictures on my phone's internet browser of all the snow games. It was wild.
I'll take 117 degrees in Vegas over 93 degrees in Tampa, any day of the week. The difference is like putting your head in an oven or putting your head over a boiling pot of water. Sure, temp wise the oven is hotter, and both are hot, but the added steaming boiling humidity more than makes up for the temp difference.
As a Tampa resident, the issue isn't heat or humidity. It's the thunderstorms. From 2013-2016, the Bucs had four games disrupted by thunderstorms due to the league forcing them to play at 4:25. It's not that much cooler.
@@elliebrown8633 the Glazers moved the games 4:25 because they said it was easier on the fans to deal with the heat. Also I’m from here - and yes, in a packed stadium it’s a lot more miserable at 1p than it is at 4:25.
I've been to Las Vegas a couple of times. The humidity there is so low, the wind is warm! I feels like what you get when you open an oven after it's just been used.
This was very well done. I'd give a mention to the 1962 NFL Championship between the Giants and Packers in NY. At 17 degrees F, it wasn't as cold as the games mentioned here, but there were also strong winds, 35-40 MPH. I remember growing up and playing in snow or on a muddy field. It was a lot of fun.
I remember the weather forecast the day before said that we might get a brief light shower. You couldn't even see the game because it was raining so hard
My dad (RIP) was at the college all star Game. He says he would still remember the waterfall as people were under the columns. I really wish I could show him this video right now.
I remember the Mud Bowl between the Vikings and Rams in 1977. At one point, every uniform on the field was completely unrecognizable. The Vikings sent in either Sammie White or Ahmad Rashad with a new uniform, and he really stood out. I also don't think the snow game between the Bills and Colts from 2017 was mentioned. I remember Jacoby Brissett completing a short touchdown pass in what seemed to be VERY deep snow.
The 1949 NFL Championship Game played between the Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams was also played in a relentless rain storm in Los Angeles. The Rams owner Dan Reaves pleaded with commissioner Bert Bell to postpone the game. Bell refused claiming radio network commitments made postponement impossible. Eagles won in the mud 14-0.
The NFL first game I ever went to was Thanksgiving 1968 between the Lions and Eagles at Tiger Stadium in Detroit. A constant rain was coming down and the field was a sea of mud. You couldn't see the numbers on the players jerseys. The Eagles, who were winless at that point, took advantage and won the game 12-0 with 4 FGs.
"Now with all the artificial fields you just dont get that kind of mud anymore. Just like what they did with the tomatoes. Nowadays you bite a tomatoe, and it dont taste like a tomatoe" 😂😂
25:37 That game was played exactly on the day I was born. Funny enough, it was right when the Buffalo Bills scored a touchdown. I guess you can say that I was born to be a Bills fan
@@Mozart1220 I was talking the other day with an old friend, reminiscing about watching football over the years and he recalled his high school had a big trophy in the main hall display case. "Oh, was it for a state championship?" I asked. "No, the school district gave it to us for haiving 13 consecutive seasons without a win and not just giving up football." I didn't ask but that had to be well over 100 losses in a row. (And he was on the cheer squad! "And you're not even gay!" I said)
“We just wanted to see how many people would blow up the comment section prematurely.” I unironically love these guys. They actually *get* it. “It” being the internet, their fans, and the football world. NFL Throwback, I genuinely hope you guys know you’re appreciated
I remember the first hs game I got actual minutes in. Had to come in for the center amid a massive downpour on a poorly sodded grass field. There was literally no grass visible, and ants were swarming out legs. Most fun I ever had in a game.
My favorites are snow games. But imagine your up at the line waiting for the snap and a old ketchup covered hot dog wrapper sticks to your face in one of those wind games.
Love Bud Grant coming out for the coin toss in 2015 at the age of 88 in short sleeve shirt. Grant was the master of using the weather to his advantage as a coach back in the glory days of the purple people eaters of the 1970's at the old Met in Bloomington, MN. And what's up with the Raiders? It seems like they lost almost every one of these bad weather games.
The wind game a couple seasons ago between the Bills and Patriots was pretty insane too. Patriots only threw the ball like 3 times total. Which is nuts to win in today’s NFL only throwing 3 times. I was at the Tuck game in the snow. Feet fell on us all game long but nobody cared. It was awesome
The shortest punt in that game was 9 yards. It went from the Bear side of the 50 to the Packer side of the field. I never trust the memory of anyone. Even the players. Nostalgia is one of the greatest enemies of the truth.
The weather always plays a role in determining the outcome of each game. When it gets colder, that’s when you have to depend on the ground attack to win you some ballgames
@@sports3117 The OP is full of the brown stuff. Someone mentioned henry. Sorry, henry was already his team’s number one weapon. There’s so much lunacy in the comments section.
I was at the Chiefs vs Seahawks game in 1998. I was only 3 years old, and I'll never forget it. The stairs were literally waterfalls and when my dad and I got back to the car after the game was over, we had to pour the rain out of our boots. It was the most rain I've ever seen in my life.
The worst I've ever was Dallas at Cleveland in the mud in 1970. The uniforms were totally obscured and you could tell which team was which only by the helmets. Dallas won by a score of 6-2.
“Football is played in any kind of weather. Rain, sleet, snow, hail, mud; can’t read the numbers on the field, can’t read the yard markers, can’t read the player’s numbers, the struggle will continue.” 😎 -George Carlin
I’ll never forget how cold I felt in the upper deck of TCF Bank Stadium witnessing Blair Walsh shank that kick against the Seahawks. In Minnesota were use to the cold but that was brutal
Cannot believe they didnt mention, for the Epic in Miami, how dehydration became an enormous problem as the game wore on, especially in OT. Players were cramping like crazy, some had to take oxygen on the sidelines, and others had to be helped up off the geound after plays. Kellen Winslow was practically carried off the field after it was all over.
Graupel happens in Cleveland every year between late November and mid-December. Most of it is caused by lake effect precipitation, but this time it was caused by a small squall line ahead of an incoming cold front. It was practically a severe thunderstorm with lightning and high winds as well. Of course it had to happen during the Browns game and of course we lost
That 2020 Browns game was ridiculous! I just remember thinking that soon it was going to start hailing and then there was going to be a tornado warning… 2020 was a damn rollercoaster of a year.
"Graupel" is a common German word for raindrops that freeze in the air but the crystals are not as big as in a hail shower. Happens over here sometimes in spring
Its unique characteristic is that it's... sort of like a Tootsie Roll pop... hard on the outside but soft (unfrozen) on the inside. Slick as ice to drive on too.
There are two instances I remember about weather affecting the schedule of play. One game was moved because of a hurricane, and an electrical storm during another game suspended play temporarily.
You know its cold outside when you are covering up in hay that was used to cover the field. Lot different time then. All the games looked like it would be awesome to play in. Had a lot of fun watching. Great video
I was at the tsunami bowl in Carolina remember winning tickets to the game we where up in the nosebleeds and once the rain hit half the stadium cleared and we all watched the game on the TVs in the concourse.
In the 70s the Saints were playing in Tulane Stadium. I was a student at LSUNO and had season tickets with a friend. They cost $90 for the entire season of home games. I remember one particular night game where it was raining in torrents. But we stayed until the end. Those were the days. Archie Manning was quarterback.
12:32 that Championship was actually between the Eagles and Cardinals. The Eagles won 7-0 after the Cardinals had beaten them in the championship the previous year
@Tracey Woodward... Story was that he walked a whole bunch of miles to the stadium towards the end of that trip. Cuz the Trolleys werent running in that snow
In the '90s we went to a Broncos at Chiefs game prepared for the forecast blizzard conditions and 6 to 10 inches of snow. As happens in this region the weather system split with all the weather passing to the north and south of KC. We were left in near 50° weather and sunny skies, watching the game with piles of coats and snow suits in our laps.
Watching the Tsunami Bowl was an unforgettable experience. I know it's been a decade, and I know he was a very good punter for a long time with other teams, but I still hold a grudge against Matt Turk for him being so awful with us. That botched snap at the end of the game to put the Panthers in position to score the game-winning touchdown just exemplifies how awful he was with the Jags. One of the worst free agent signings the team made
Love this! My absolute favorite bad weather game ("bad" being relative because I LOVE the snow) was the 2017 Bills-Colts game in Buffalo. LeSean McCoy ran it in for the game-winning TD at the end of that epic blizzard brawl! Gotta love the snow angels in the end zone :)
I vividly remember the chargers Bengals game -59°. I was at home,, nice and warm, watching the game. Halftime hit, and I went outside to start my car. It wouldn't.. so I popped my hood and checked my battery cables to make sure they were tight. They were.. I barely twisted it and the entire post snapped off.. I went back inside and said, I need a new battery... idk how those players did it. Brutal.
I doubt there would have been much complaint if they had run out with a shovel or broom. The fact that they used the ground crew to cause a mismatch with equipment the other team didn't have access to was the problem.
singhcr You proubly know about how crazy Buffalo Bills fans are drinking Alcohol at 9am at tailgate parties, in 80s cold games Bills fans threw snowballs at the other team, It sucks Buffalo is called SNOW CAPITAL OF USA, its True Lake Erie dumps 12-14 feet every winter, even the weather guys cant figure out of all other Citys near 5 Great Lakes why Buffalo gets the most snow. 1 good thing were called MIAMI of the North cause we get lots of 90 degree days in Summer
Love the mud bowls. Loved seeing guys tackled to the ground and a wave of water comes flying up. That's becoming a lost art these days as even most of the outdoor stadiums have changed to field turf. New England changed their's during mid-season 2006. Pittsburgh and Carolina still have natural grass I believe.
The 02 season finale between Oakland and KC where it rained so much the shield washed off the field was great. 24-0 win to clinch home field advantage. The ran it 60 times for 280 yards in the season Gannon won the MVP with 4600 plus yards because of so much rain. That was a beautiful game.
Such a great video. Three of the most memorable games were 1) the Fog Bowl between Philly and Chicago in 1988...that game started off sunny for at least the first quarter and then got ridiculously bad; 2) the Freezer Bowl between San Diego and Cincinnati...I think that was the first time I saw someone using the Hot Hands product, which is fairly common now in ski resorts and REI stores; and 3) the snow playoff game between New England and Oakland in 2001...both teams actually moved the ball well despite what seemed like a LOT of snow accumulation.
38:35 The first time I ever heard the term graupel, I was 10 years old playing in my soccer team's season opener on the 1st Saturday in April, and towards the midway point the graupel started coming down like in the Browns game. Kept going to the end as well. Have seen it a time or two since, but that was wild
You left out one of the my favorite bad weather games: 1994 on Halloween Night: Packers at Bears in their 75th anniversary throwback uniforms on Monday Night Football. The game was played in a huge downpour: Soldier Field was a muddy mess
Who remembered the Steelers Vs The Dolphins game That was played in like 100 mph winds it was on MNF & the final score was 3-0 Steelers. Do u remember that game? Edit: Damn, I should've watched the video first. Lol
In 2017, my high school team played our state championship game in the snow. It was the very first instance of it snowing during the state championship game. Unfortunately, we lost 21-7. But the memories will always be there. Edit: I believe the temperature was 13° with a windchill below zero.
My HS junior year, our last reg season home game, conference championship on the line, and it was a cool (40's) but muggy night, and fog came rolling in just after the start of the 3rd quarter. Up until the last few minutes of the game, it got so foggy, you couldn't see the other team on their sideline. We won that game, and won our first conference championship outright in almost 50 years.
I was at the Snow Globe Game with my mom. It was originally my gift to her for Christmas, Mother's Day and her birthday all rolled into one, but never knew it would end up being such an iconic game! When the snow started falling in the 2nd quarter, we stood up cuz the benches got too wet to sit on and we ended up standing for the rest of the game. Such a great game for our first Packers game at Lambeau (my second Packers game because I had seen a pre-season game at Camp Randall Stadium in 1995 thanks to my uncle)! I still have the hoodie I got at the stadium and to this day my mom has yet to ask me for another gift for any of those holidays (it also helps that she's a hardcore Packers fan)!

There's something cathartic about watching grown professional athletes slide for 10+ yards on a muddy field. Wonderful.
Yea
Same in baseball when there's a rain delay and players slide on the tarp like a slip and slide
I’ve always been so ignorant to the fact that some fields nowadays still use grass, so chocolatey games with loads of rain are still possible 😆🍫

@@matteatsfries1727 They showed a single catch from it (Deonte Thompson's, I believe) at the end of that segment but the Bills got shafted in the snow segment in general
I played Rugby for Michigan State in the '80's. The worst conditions I can remember had 3 inches of snow on the field then the temperature rose just enough to give us an icy sleet. About an hour before the game the temp dropped to 15 degrees. It was 3 inches of snow covered with a quarter inch of ice. Everyone was bleeding after that game. Not to mention how much every hit hurts more in the cold.
My son played rugby and in a national playoff round in the Chicago area in 2017 players were suffering hypothermia. No snow. Your game sounds worse!
I too have endured similar Rugby conditions. We had an annual snow bowl played in Northern Vermont where those exact conditions already existed when the sun came up that day. 10 inches of snow covered the pitch... topped with an icy 2 inch hard crust. Absolute blood bath. We should have just called Red Cross and donated 2 pints each. Instead we left it in the snow. Another favorite is when the pitch is frozen for the playoffs but thaws when the sun is high in the sky midday...then the sun starts to set and the pitch freezes again for the finals... this time with a billion cleat imprints that make it similar to plating on a giant bed of nails. Still the best sport ever.
@@adamr6794 It took me 10 years of playing to realize that I hated the game- I loved my teammates- but at second row I hated the game. Come home beat to shit, ears and temples bleeding, sore all over, everything hurt for 3 days after a game, etc. I threw my cleats in the garbage can when I was 28. The last team I played with was Battleship Rugby from Mobile, Alabama. The best bunch of guys ever. I just got tired of physically getting beat to shit every weekend. You are a Rugger...I know you understand.
@@paulh7589 Yeah second row does suck. I played from 1995-2015 and they try to goad me into running around now and I have no desire whatsoever at 50. I liked the game better when I started playing.
That week in 2013 where, during the 1:00 slate, you had the Eagles/Lions snow game and the Vikings/Ravens snow game with the iconic finish (craziest two minutes ever) might've been the most fun I've ever had watching football. Not often you get to see a bunch of bad weather games at once and have them all be entertaining, but they were
Also Matt Prater hitting a 64 yard field goal in 10 degree weather that week I’m pretty sure
there were 9 early games that day 6 of them were in the snow
I remember playing in a Flag Football tournament that day and seeing all the pictures on my phone's internet browser of all the snow games. It was wild.
That Eagles vs Lions game was very entertaining.
I'll take 117 degrees in Vegas over 93 degrees in Tampa, any day of the week. The difference is like putting your head in an oven or putting your head over a boiling pot of water. Sure, temp wise the oven is hotter, and both are hot, but the added steaming boiling humidity more than makes up for the temp difference.
understand your point but vegas is indoors
As a Tampa resident, the issue isn't heat or humidity. It's the thunderstorms. From 2013-2016, the Bucs had four games disrupted by thunderstorms due to the league forcing them to play at 4:25. It's not that much cooler.
@@elliebrown8633 the Glazers moved the games 4:25 because they said it was easier on the fans to deal with the heat. Also I’m from here - and yes, in a packed stadium it’s a lot more miserable at 1p than it is at 4:25.
I've been to Las Vegas a couple of times. The humidity there is so low, the wind is warm! I feels like what you get when you open an oven after it's just been used.
Like New Jersey. Can be 95+ with 90%+ humidity. I enjoyed being in Arizona at 120 degrees but extremely low humidity better.
This was very well done. I'd give a mention to the 1962 NFL Championship between the Giants and Packers in NY. At 17 degrees F, it wasn't as cold as the games mentioned here, but there were also strong winds, 35-40 MPH. I remember growing up and playing in snow or on a muddy field. It was a lot of fun.
I’m sure it was, playing in either powdered sugar or chocolate (or both if you’re lucky!) 😅

I remember the Mud Bowl between the Vikings and Rams in 1977. At one point, every uniform on the field was completely unrecognizable. The Vikings sent in either Sammie White or Ahmad Rashad with a new uniform, and he really stood out. I also don't think the snow game between the Bills and Colts from 2017 was mentioned. I remember Jacoby Brissett completing a short touchdown pass in what seemed to be VERY deep snow.
The 1949 NFL Championship Game played between the Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams was also played in a relentless rain storm in Los Angeles. The Rams owner Dan Reaves pleaded with commissioner Bert Bell to postpone the game. Bell refused claiming radio network commitments made postponement impossible. Eagles won in the mud 14-0.

The NFL first game I ever went to was Thanksgiving 1968 between the Lions and Eagles at Tiger Stadium in Detroit. A constant rain was coming down and the field was a sea of mud. You couldn't see the numbers on the players jerseys. The Eagles, who were winless at that point, took advantage and won the game 12-0 with 4 FGs.
John Madden has been known to love games played in bad weather.
Well see Pat when the rain and the dirt come together it makes mud. And then the mud gets on the jerseys. And then boom! And that's what mud is.

@@Mozart1220 I was talking the other day with an old friend, reminiscing about watching football over the years and he recalled his high school had a big trophy in the main hall display case. "Oh, was it for a state championship?" I asked. "No, the school district gave it to us for haiving 13 consecutive seasons without a win and not just giving up football."
I didn't ask but that had to be well over 100 losses in a row. (And he was on the cheer squad! "And you're not even gay!" I said)

Lol quarterback got sacked 23 times that night
My favorites are snow games. But imagine your up at the line waiting for the snap and a old ketchup covered hot dog wrapper sticks to your face in one of those wind games.
Love Bud Grant coming out for the coin toss in 2015 at the age of 88 in short sleeve shirt. Grant was the master of using the weather to his advantage as a coach back in the glory days of the purple people eaters of the 1970's at the old Met in Bloomington, MN. And what's up with the Raiders? It seems like they lost almost every one of these bad weather games.

I still remember that Eagles-Lions game like it was yesterday. That snow looked crazy in the first half specifically lol
The wind game a couple seasons ago between the Bills and Patriots was pretty insane too. Patriots only threw the ball like 3 times total. Which is nuts to win in today’s NFL only throwing 3 times. I was at the Tuck game in the snow. Feet fell on us all game long but nobody cared. It was awesome
There was a Packer-Bear game on Halloween in the mid 90s that was crazy. The Bears punter kicked one that went behind him due to the winds.
Horse manure. You, ronnie o, are full of it.
1994 Halloween night
Same night as the plane crash in Newton County Indiana
The shortest punt in that game was 9 yards. It went from the Bear side of the 50 to the Packer side of the field.
I never trust the memory of anyone. Even the players.
Nostalgia is one of the greatest enemies of the truth.

The worst I've ever was Dallas at Cleveland in the mud in 1970. The uniforms were totally obscured and you could tell which team was which only by the helmets. Dallas won by a score of 6-2.

Facts he should’ve talked about it more especially with the overtime finish
“Football is played in any kind of weather. Rain, sleet, snow, hail, mud; can’t read the numbers on the field, can’t read the yard markers, can’t read the player’s numbers, the struggle will continue.” 😎
-George Carlin
Imagine coming from the beautiful sunshine of Tampa to play in a massive blizzard at Lambeau field!
I’ll never forget how cold I felt in the upper deck of TCF Bank Stadium witnessing Blair Walsh shank that kick against the Seahawks. In Minnesota were use to the cold but that was brutal
Cannot believe they didnt mention, for the Epic in Miami, how dehydration became an enormous problem as the game wore on, especially in OT. Players were cramping like crazy, some had to take oxygen on the sidelines, and others had to be helped up off the geound after plays. Kellen Winslow was practically carried off the field after it was all over.
Graupel happens in Cleveland every year between late November and mid-December. Most of it is caused by lake effect precipitation, but this time it was caused by a small squall line ahead of an incoming cold front. It was practically a severe thunderstorm with lightning and high winds as well. Of course it had to happen during the Browns game and of course we lost
Ah, remember the good ole days of the NFL, when you could....
25:14 casually light a fire in the stands????
They were lighting fires and smoking cigarettes in the stands 😂 how did they think lighting fires in a crowded stadium was a good idea though?

Haven’t caught many late season games at old Municipal Stadium, it does make sense
I've lived in Cincinnati my whole life so I've heard a lot of stories about the freezer bowl. It gets cold here but that temperature is just crazy.
Playing in the mud would be fun, but i dont see how these guys play in the blizzards
That 2020 Browns game was ridiculous! I just remember thinking that soon it was going to start hailing and then there was going to be a tornado warning… 2020 was a damn rollercoaster of a year.
"Graupel" is a common German word for raindrops that freeze in the air but the crystals are not as big as in a hail shower. Happens over here sometimes in spring
Its unique characteristic is that it's... sort of like a Tootsie Roll pop... hard on the outside but soft (unfrozen) on the inside. Slick as ice to drive on too.
There are two instances I remember about weather affecting the schedule of play. One game was moved because of a hurricane, and an electrical storm during another game suspended play temporarily.
good old hurricane Irma

@@patrickcorrelliiii4063 If they decide it's unsafe to play in Tampa Bay, they'll play in Minneapolis.

You know its cold outside when you are covering up in hay that was used to cover the field. Lot different time then. All the games looked like it would be awesome to play in. Had a lot of fun watching. Great video
And you could take a leak and nobody would notice. Now as for the ladies......?
I was at the tsunami bowl in Carolina remember winning tickets to the game we where up in the nosebleeds and once the rain hit half the stadium cleared and we all watched the game on the TVs in the concourse.
Always wondered what it really feels like playing in a extra cold type of game, espceially when you're the running back or on defense
Depends on how cold. Kinda cold- hits sting more than usual. Real cold- then eh everything is kinda numb
It’s unreal no feeling in your fingers
In the 70s the Saints were playing in Tulane Stadium. I was a student at LSUNO and had season tickets with a friend. They cost $90 for the entire season of home games. I remember one particular night game where it was raining in torrents. But we stayed until the end. Those were the days. Archie Manning was quarterback.
Great compilation. I was waiting for that Bills-Browns game from 2007. That game was hilarious, with the Browns winning 8-0.
Quite the score
12:32 that Championship was actually between the Eagles and Cardinals. The Eagles won 7-0 after the Cardinals had beaten them in the championship the previous year
They probably forgot that the Cardinals played in Chicago at that time and assumed that the Bears were playing the Eagles
And the Eagles beat the Rams 14-0 in the next NFL Title game, the only team to record back-to-back shutouts in championship games.
And the story of Steve van Buren getting to the game is interesting.
.he took a taxi and a.train just like any fan would have done
@Tracey Woodward... Story was that he walked a whole bunch of miles to the stadium towards the end of that trip. Cuz the Trolleys werent running in that snow
In the '90s we went to a Broncos at Chiefs game prepared for the forecast blizzard conditions and 6 to 10 inches of snow. As happens in this region the weather system split with all the weather passing to the north and south of KC. We were left in near 50° weather and sunny skies, watching the game with piles of coats and snow suits in our laps.
Watching the Tsunami Bowl was an unforgettable experience. I know it's been a decade, and I know he was a very good punter for a long time with other teams, but I still hold a grudge against Matt Turk for him being so awful with us. That botched snap at the end of the game to put the Panthers in position to score the game-winning touchdown just exemplifies how awful he was with the Jags. One of the worst free agent signings the team made
Ah finally, another worthy jaguars fan!
Oh, I love cheekiness like that Tuck Bowl gag
Not sure who's tougher in some of those cold weather games, the players or the fans that actually sat through the games.
Playing football in the deep snow is a thing of dreams for me and brings back childhood memories
The Lions game where Jeremy Ross scored two touchdowns in the snow
Love this! My absolute favorite bad weather game ("bad" being relative because I LOVE the snow) was the 2017 Bills-Colts game in Buffalo. LeSean McCoy ran it in for the game-winning TD at the end of that epic blizzard brawl! Gotta love the snow angels in the end zone :)
I took my wife to that game. It was her 1st NFL game. Now she will only go to games in September.
I vividly remember the chargers Bengals game -59°. I was at home,, nice and warm, watching the game. Halftime hit, and I went outside to start my car. It wouldn't.. so I popped my hood and checked my battery cables to make sure they were tight. They were.. I barely twisted it and the entire post snapped off.. I went back inside and said, I need a new battery... idk how those players did it. Brutal.
So did you say f*** it after the post snapped and got the battery later when it wasn't as cold?
Many think the Pats cheating began with Belichick, but, the tradition actually began with the Snow Plow Game.
Can't cheat if it's not against the rules!
@@Anton-wk8lv well I think that could be considered a illegal use of a home field advantage
@@theEWDSDS In the video they said it wasn't illegal at the time.
I doubt there would have been much complaint if they had run out with a shovel or broom. The fact that they used the ground crew to cause a mismatch with equipment the other team didn't have access to was the problem.

singhcr You proubly know about how crazy Buffalo Bills fans are drinking Alcohol at 9am at tailgate parties, in 80s cold games Bills fans threw snowballs at the other team, It sucks Buffalo is called SNOW CAPITAL OF USA, its True Lake Erie dumps 12-14 feet every winter, even the weather guys cant figure out of all other Citys near 5 Great Lakes why Buffalo gets the most snow. 1 good thing were called MIAMI of the North cause we get lots of 90 degree days in Summer
Love the mud bowls. Loved seeing guys tackled to the ground and a wave of water comes flying up. That's becoming a lost art these days as even most of the outdoor stadiums have changed to field turf. New England changed their's during mid-season 2006. Pittsburgh and Carolina still have natural grass I believe.

the 2013 Snow Bowl Lions vs Eagles was my favorite
The 02 season finale between Oakland and KC where it rained so much the shield washed off the field was great. 24-0 win to clinch home field advantage. The ran it 60 times for 280 yards in the season Gannon won the MVP with 4600 plus yards because of so much rain. That was a beautiful game.
Such a great video. Three of the most memorable games were 1) the Fog Bowl between Philly and Chicago in 1988...that game started off sunny for at least the first quarter and then got ridiculously bad; 2) the Freezer Bowl between San Diego and Cincinnati...I think that was the first time I saw someone using the Hot Hands product, which is fairly common now in ski resorts and REI stores; and 3) the snow playoff game between New England and Oakland in 2001...both teams actually moved the ball well despite what seemed like a LOT of snow accumulation.

My HS junior year, our last reg season home game, conference championship on the line, and it was a cool (40's) but muggy night, and fog came rolling in just after the start of the 3rd quarter. Up until the last few minutes of the game, it got so foggy, you couldn't see the other team on their sideline. We won that game, and won our first conference championship outright in almost 50 years.

I was at the Snow Globe Game with my mom. It was originally my gift to her for Christmas, Mother's Day and her birthday all rolled into one, but never knew it would end up being such an iconic game! When the snow started falling in the 2nd quarter, we stood up cuz the benches got too wet to sit on and we ended up standing for the rest of the game. Such a great game for our first Packers game at Lambeau (my second Packers game because I had seen a pre-season game at Camp Randall Stadium in 1995 thanks to my uncle)!
I still have the hoodie I got at the stadium and to this day my mom has yet to ask me for another gift for any of those holidays (it also helps that she's a hardcore Packers fan)!
