Press-Gazette 1961 Title Game

Prior to the 1961 N.F.L. title game, the Green Bay Press-Gazette produced this booklet about the game to advertise itself and to let everyone know how important this event would be for the city of Green Bay. It would be the first time that a championship game would be played in what would later become known as “Titletown, U.S.A.,” even though they had won six N.F.L. titles to that point. Two more championship games would be played in Green Bay (1965 and 1967) before the Super Bowl took over and was played at “neutral” sites.
