-39 with wind chill factor. Had to go by myself and could not even give a free ticket away out front that day.  

Yeah, it was a cold one alright, but was that the really cold game? I seem to recall that a coworker attended the Bears game two weeks earlier (which I did not attend) and I thought that one was close to zero.  I remember that he complained about it all the next day.  We won that one too, if memory serves.  That may have been an 8-8 year.

The Minny game was cold too, and I believe there was some snow being piled up in back of the end zones.  The field had frozen solid overnight, and even though the sun was out, the SE end of the field was in the shade and remained a bit of an ice rink.  Because of that Fuad Ravez couldn't plant on a FG attempt and slid, and the ball went sideways and wide, which was the difference in the final score.  I remember later that night Berman referred to his kick as a "Fuad Shot"
