Before we move on to the actual football game aspects of the “Ice Bowl,” we present today a series of three images of the Lambeau Field grounds crew removing the tarps off the field before the players from each team come out for warm-ups. In the first image (shown above) from the South end zone where the winning touchdown would be scored a few hours later, we see the tarps being rolled onto metal drainage pipes.
Here we see a close-up image of the crews at work, bundled up as best they can in 1967 attire to battle the frigid elements.
Another view of the crews, looking towards the North end zone, where we see the Packers’ administration building, the decorative bunting with Packer helmets hung for the championship, and the “open” end of the stadium seating. At this point, your Packerville editor’s seats don’t exist, as they are right above the “tunnel” ramp where the Packers used to enter the playing field here in the North end zone.
