Vince Frets; Dowler Looks On
We join the Packers on the sideline of the L.A. Coliseum today, as coach Vince Lombardi ponders what he sees on the field. Behind him is Green Bay receiver Boyd Dowler, who went down with a separated shoulder on the Packers' second drive of the game. Max McGee, who had to borrow a teammate's helmet because he had not brought his own out of the locker room, was put into the game. A few plays later, McGee made a one-handed reception of a pass from Bart Starr, took off past Chiefs defender Fred Williamson and ran 37 yards to score the first touchdown in Super Bowl history. By the end of the game, McGee had recorded seven receptions for 138 yards and two touchdowns, assisting Green Bay to a 35-10 victory. McGee had told Dowler before the game, “I hope you don't get hurt. I'm not in very good shape,” alluding to his hangover from staying out the night before. The First AFL-NFL World Championship Game didn’t exactly fill the stands, as can be seen by the crowd in the background.
