Before
fans could file into Cleveland’s FirstEnergy Stadium for Sunday’s
Browns-versus-Bears tilt, this had to be done:

Approximately
five to eight inches of snow piled up on seats and in aisles prior to kickoff,
and according to team officials, the Browns had more than 150 people working Saturday
evening to clear the way for spectators to see their Brownies blow the game
fall in dramatic fashion to the visiting Bears, 38-31.
After all the snow clearing, the
intensity of the snow storm blew more snow back on to some of the seats
before the game, Browns officials claim, forcing some fans to clear their own
way as they arrived at their seats.
In
other sports weather news, Navy once again rolled over Army, 34-7, with a
little snow in the field in Philadelphia. The win is the 12th in a
row for Navy.

Believe it or not, Seattle Seahawks quarterback
Russell Wilson has never played in a snow game despite playing college ball at
Wisconsin. He told the New York Times he
was disappointed the snow stopped in New York – I know it’s actually New
Jersey – Sunday before his team thrashed the Giants, 23-0. But, as the article
says, maybe Wilson will get another chance to play in the New York snow when
the Super Bowl in played in MetLife Stadium in a couple of months.
