The Eagles hosted the 1960 NFL Championship Game here on December 26, defeating the favored Green Bay Packers 17–13; it was head coach Vince Lombardi's only career playoff loss. Two years earlier, the two franchises were the worst in the twelve-team league; attendance for the title game was 67,325. The game started at noon in case it went to overtime, as the venue did not have lights at the time.
