The 2-11 Bucs traded their sandals for snow boots as they marched right into an unforgiving blizzard to take on the 6-7 Packers. However, only 19,856 fans braved the elements to witness the contest, the smallest crowd ever in the history of Lambeau Field.
The nearly five inches that continued to fall during the game practically strangled visibility; picture the old TV static screen when there was no signal. Fans may as well have stayed home, that way they could have avoided the 25-35 mph wind gusts that whipped mercilessly across the snow smeared turf.
In the end, 36,586 seats sat empty, a record for no-shows at Lambeau. In addition, 485 tickets remained unsold which simply doesn't happen in a town full of football rabid fans. The element-tested Packers easily shutout the hapless Bucs 21-0, holding them to a mere five first downs and outgaining them by 512-65 yards. Steve Young (at the time true to his last name), managed only 11 total passing yards and was sacked five times on the snow caked road to defeat.
