It's been nearly 50 full seasons since the Cowboys and Packers played in one of the more memorable games in not only series history, but NFL history as well.
Commonly referred to as the "Ice Bowl," the Packers narrowly defeated the Cowboys 21-17 at Lambeau Field on a last-second touchdown run by eventual Hall of Fame quarterback Bart Starr in the final seconds of the NFL Championship Game, which propelled the Packers to Super Bowl II.
More than the late-game dramatics, this matchup will be remembered for the extreme weather conditions that included below-freezing temperatures. With temps ranging from -13 to -15 degrees with a wind chill near -50, the two teams survived the brutal conditions.
While the Cowboys fans that can remember this game probably haven't gotten over it yet, the importance of the Ice Bowl is considered a transcendent game for NFL history, and one that put the league on the map – along with the Packers and Cowboys franchises as well.
