"In a voice raw and hoarse from shouting in the minus-50 degree windchill, Green Bay quarterback Bart Starr bent low in the Packer's huddle on December 31, 1967 and called the most controversial play in NFL history. "31 Wedge", Starr said in a puff of steam, "and I'll carry the ball". Three feet of ice-slick turf and a Dallas Cowboy's defense known as "Doomsday" separated the Packers from the winning touchdown in the title game. Out of time-outs, Starr called his own number on a quarterback sneak. It was an all-or-nothing gamble, ending a 68-yard march with 13 seconds left to play".That's a preview of the quick-paced, suspense-filled narrative The Ice Bowl delivers. This 1967 NFL championship, dubbed the "Ice Bowl", pitted Vince Lomardi's Green Bay Packers against arch rival Tom Landry's Dallas Cowboys in the ultimate test of skill, strategy, and endurance. The Ice Bowl culminated in 16-degrees-sub-zero temperatures with an ending no football fan will ever forget.

A welcome present for football -- especially Packers -- fans everywhere.
