I’ve never worn a mask like this. I’ve never been in a temperature that was a single degree. The folks in this pic are sitting (voluntarily) outside, in thirteen degrees below zero. Now I know many of you Yankees (that’s everyone above the Mason-Dixon line to me) and Canadians will scoff and wave your hands. “Oh, that’s NOTHING!” Well, it sounds horrendous. But football fans are die-hard, and this couple was among 50,000 other crazy fools.
It was the FIRST NFL game ever played in subzero weather. New Year’s Eve, 1967, Green Bay’s Lambeau Field, kicking off to the Dallas Cowboys. And while the Packers scored a victory, the fans may have proven a bit too rowdy. RIP, goal post.
I Don't Get It 
I have worn masks like that but not for a football game. I do remember watching that game on TV in a warm living room. Now I have to wear a different mask. Don’t like it.

I feel you. We wear ours everywhere we go, and it was so hard to sing in church this week with a mask on the whole time.

I try but it is often hard for me to breathe in one. Besides I hear so many different “facts” about them. I actually saw a guy the other day smoking a cigarette while wearing one.

I agree it is hard to breathe. I’m sorry you’re dealing with that. It doesn’t look like we’ll be done with them soon.

Yep it is especially difficult if you have COPD and need to use O2 24/7. That is why I don’t venture out too often.

I remember watching that game on TV. They should bring back Lone Ranger reruns-who was that masked man?

If they brought that back, there would be so much rioting in the streets. And that’s from a woman who named her dog Tonto.

Well you know I have, Kerbey. That’s how they came up with the expression ‘just chill.’
