The Packers have made it back to the NFC Championship Game since they won the Super Bowl in 2011. During the Cowboys game I posted a whole lot of Packer cards
on my Twitter account and since Fox was trying its hardest to make this playoff games into the Ice Bowl 2, I posted many of my oldest Packer cards featuring players that played in the original Ice Bowl.

Vince Lombardi doesn't have too many cards from his playing days [with a few
exceptions in a Philadelphia set] so I'll share some of my favorite contemporary ones. The framed Upper Deck Masterpieces cards are so nice I'm surprised another company hasn't taken it and run with it.

Such a simple yet powerful card this card honored the Lombardi Trophy.

And last but not least we have my lone
Forrest Gregg card. Gregg is sometimes described as the greatest athlete the Packers ever had and before his career was over in 1971 he had six NFL Championships and had been elected to the Pro Bowl nine times. During the
Packers/Lions game in Week #17 he was honored in a half-time ceremony.
