41 years ago, the Green Bay Packers won the first Super Bowl. They completed the season with this vicotry only after winning the famed "Ice Bowl" in the NFC Championship.
What I didn't know (until today):
- The trophy they took home was called the "World Championship Game Trophy." It was not call ed the "Lombardi Trophy" until 1970 when its namesake died of cancer.
- Most of the NFL was concerned about the dominance of Green Bay when they followed up this victory by winning Super Bowl II
