Bengals-Chargers playoff game in 2014 was pretty cold. Got even colder after Bernard fumbled.

2010 Papa Johns Bowl in Birmingham. Looked it up, and that game was 10 degrees colder than any late-November Penn State game I went to

It’s amazing that the chargers were even able to play half way decent in that game after the exhausting and humid game the week before in Miami.

1969 HS football game. It was the last game of the season against Nachitoches central for the district title. Rainy, temps in the 30's with wind. Brother was a jr at the time so dad loaded us all up for the big game. Only lasted till half we were all frozen and wet. Hell the game had to be stopped because a goose landed on the field.

Tulane - Ole Miss in old Tulane Stadium, I think it was 1976. Game was delayed from the season opener to the last game on the schedule due to a hurricane in the gulf. Tulane Stadium had some strong winds on a good day, and the temps were in the upper 20s-lower 30s. Plus, stadium was empty so no one else there to help block out the wind.

It really was cruel they flew to Miami and played in the heat and humidity, and then to Cincy for that frozen playoff game. What a contrast in 7 days.

LSU at Arkansas in 2014 was cold as shite. It didn’t help that LSU looked like straight arse also

2012 was cold also but not bad until the sun went down

2014 was a night game and miserable

The very first Music City Bowl was awful. Freezing cold temperatures and relentless sleet. The game was Alabama v. Va Tech. Bama flat out quit on the field, got routed and by the fourth quarter the only people left in the frozen, ice covered bleachers were the most die hard Hokie fans from the Blue Ridge Mountains.

A high school playoff game in the early 2000s, northern LA and it was sub 20 degrees with some light freezing snow flurries. Literally couldn’t feel my extremities after awhile.

College level, definitely LSU/Troy 2008 was brutal in more ways than one. The comeback helped though most fans had left by that time making the cold even worse

Packers/Giants NFC Championship game in 2008.

-1 degrees at kickoff, second coldest NFL game behind the ice bowl.

Nothing more to say that cold as shite. Never been in anything like that before or since. Loved every second of it

My brother was visiting me in Minneapolis, and on a whim we decided to go to the Loons MLS debut at TCF Bank stadium. I had no idea they used a neon ball for snow games.

College-LSU/Bama when Bama won going away due to a fake email or some crap. I was 2 rows from the top of Death Valley and it was miserably cold.

HS-West Monroe and St Thomas More the Friday before Jordan Jefferson’s debut against Ole Miss. So cold my Dad’s best friend came back from the port o potty and said, “I had to stick my finger in my butt to pee. Little fella crawled back inside to survive.”

I had no idea they played soccer in the snow/winter.

A few inches on the field might make the game mildly interesting.
