1960 NFL Championship Game

The 1960 NFL Championship Game was the 28th NFL title game. The game was played on Monday, December 26, at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.In addition to the landmark 1958 championship game, in which the Baltimore Colts defeated the New York Giants in sudden death overtime, the 1960 game has also been called a key event in football history. The game marked the lone playoff defeat for Packers coach Vince Lombardi before his Packers team established a dynasty that won five NFL championships, as well as the first two Super Bowls, in a span of seven seasons.The victory was the third NFL title for the Philadelphia Eagles, and was also their last championship until the team won Super Bowl LII 57 years later. The American Football League was in its first season, and held its inaugural title game less than a week later. First-year NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle convinced owners to move the league's headquarters from Philadelphia to New York City, and with Congressional passage of the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961, received an antitrust exemption that allowed the league to negotiate a common broadcasting network representing all of its teams, helping cement football's ascendancy as a national sport.This was the second and last NFL Championship Game played in Philadelphia, and the only one at Franklin Field: the 1948 Championship Game, held in a snowstorm at Shibe Park, was also won by the Eagles. Ticket prices for the game were ten and eight dollars. This is also the only year from 1958 to 1963 that did not include the New York Giants in the Championship Game.
