Jerry Kramer, an offensive lineman on the great Green Bay Packer teams of the 1960s, had his ring from the first Super Bowl stolen twenty years ago. It was discovered being auctioned on the Web. Sean Hackbarth has the rest of the story.
“Its greatest significance is that it was Super Bowl I,” [Kramer] said Friday in a telephone interview from his home in Boise, Idaho. “You can get excited about Super Bowl XV or Super Bowl XXV or Super Bowl XXXV, but there’s nothing like the first one.”
Indeed, it wasn’t even called “the Super Bowl” at that point.
