The unforgettable American Football championship game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers, known as the Ice Bowl, is marked by extreme weather conditions, with wind chill temperatures plummeting to minus 40 degrees Celsius. The game, which ended in a 21-17 victory for the Packers, saw the official's whistle freeze to his lips, leading to a decision to continue without whistles. Both players and over 50,000 fans braved the arctic temperatures, resulting in numerous frostbite cases and even heart attacks among spectators.
