Today’s just-prior-to-game time posting features a 1964 ad for Ripon socks, which appeared in the Green Bay Packers Yearbook that season. Packers’ guard Fuzzy Thurston is the player in the ad, which probably got him some good-natured ribbing in the locker room. Thurston played for Green Bay from 1959 (Lombardi’s first year as coach) through 1967 (Lombardi’s last year as coach). He currently resides in Green Bay and runs “Fuzzy’s 63,” a bar on Mason Street, as well as a Packers game tickets & travel business.
