Lambeau Field Looks Like An Actual Frozen Tundra Right Now

The much-anticipated Packers-49ers game is underway in Green Bay, and it's just as gloriously cold as we anticipated.

It was 5 degrees at kickoff, with a wind chill of -10 degrees. That's plenty cold, but not quite cold enough to make it one of the ten coldest NFL games ever played.

As we saw with the snowstorm in Week 14, extreme weather makes football much better.

Because of the weather, all the grass is dead at Lambeau Field, giving the turf a brownish hue. Lambeau is nicknamed "The Frozen Tundra," but as SB Nation pointed out on Twitter, it looks like an actual tundra today.

Here's the grass at Lambeau close up:

Here's what an actual tundra in Manitoba, Canada looks like. Uncanny:

And Alaska

If you're wondering, tundras are typically well below zero, temperature-wise, during the winter. So no, it's not as cold as an actual frozen tundra at Lambeau.
