The legendary Snow Bowl. This was probably the worst conditions that an NFL game has ever been played
in. A foot of snow was on the field at kickoff time and another four inches fell during it. The Bucs were in
white and Steve Young couldn't even see his receivers at times through the blizzard. The Bucs were outgained
512-65 which makes the final 21 point margin seem amazingly small. Less than 20,000 actually braved the
conditions with over 45,000 no-shows at Lambeau Field.

Steve Young’s famous play where he ended up with a faceful of snow after being tackled
These conditions really were legendary
Even the great James Wilder could do nothing at Lambeau that day
