Bart Star lived down the street from me as a child. Following his Retirement he bought a simple home in his home town of Montgomery. He was a great player and an even better individual.

I’m 70 years old and grew up cheering for the Great Green Bay Packers; I remember the Ice Bowl and the first Super Bowls. Football was a great game!! Vince Lombardi was a very great man. Thanks for this video!

NY Packer fan here. Those teams in the 1960’s were something special, amazing players with class & strength of character. IMO Lombardi is the 🐐.

I met Ray Nitshke and Willie Wood, very cool for a little boy who was a big Green Bay fan growing up in WI.

I was a young fellow in Wisconsin, when Vince came we started to realize that we had a coach that was a common sense Man, we didn't miss a game., On the radio, anybody remember " this is" Ray Scott " the Green bay PAcker football network, boy were we proud ! It was simply amazing, that a back water of the NFL, could become the best, he sure made us proud ! It rubbed off !

Man, I miss football. As a 50 yr old, I haven't played in over 30 years. I think Apollo said it best in Rocky 3, when he said something to the extent: the warrior inside has to have a battle to go to...or something like that. That warrior spirit never dies. Long live football and the spirit of Coach Lombardi.

Nitschke is funny guy

I'm a Tom Landry-era Dallas Cowboys fan, and I have to say that
the GB Packers, during the 1960s, the Lombardi the greatest dynasty
in the history of the NFL🏈

This brought back wonderful memories of the Packers. My family moved back to WI just in time to love the Lombardi era!

[DavesMx]

There's a reason the trophy is named after this man. I love that man to this day

"Winning isn't everything , it's the only thing." Special man, take his philosophy into whatever you do, winning is guaranteed!!!

[jimzielinski]

I was raised in Chicago. My best & oldest friend is the Head Groundskeeper for the Chicago Bears!
Vince Lombardi made a number of Sunday’s, a sad day for many of Bear Fans. However, V L made many Sundays a sad day, for other NFL cities.
I humbly believe, if Paul Hornung wasn’t suspended for gambling in the 1963 season, the Packers would have won another championship!
R I P Vince Lombardi & George Halas! Two of the greatest!

[ralphshelley]

Jim Taylor was a mighty horse! Determined to go forward!

[dannyburch]

Thay don't make em like this anymore love coach Lombardi so inspiring.

I haven't seen the whole video, but Vince Lombardi started in 1959 as head coach of the Green Bay Packers until 1967. In 1968 he acted as general manager of the Green Bay Packers, then in 1969 he coached the Washington Redskins.

George Allen took over the Washington Redskins in 1971 and the team went to the Super Bowl in 1972, losing to the undefeated Miami Dolphins. George Allen has one of the highest winning percentages among head coaches with at least 100 games, though he never won a league championship, unlike Vince Lombardi who won five - 1961 (NFL), 1962 (NFL), 1965 (NFL), 1966 (NFL & Super Bowl), 1967 (NFL and Super Bowl) - and lost only one in 1960 (Philadelphia Eagles) in which the Packers fell short by a few yards on the last play.

For us old timers, men like Vince Lombardi, Hank Stram, Tom Landry, George Allen, Don Shula, John Madden, Chuck Noll are great men.

Kevin Harlan's narration is excellent
