Gold SB Trophy ? · PACKERSHOME

This season will see the Golden Anniversary (50th) of the Super Bowl. IMO, the SB Trophy should be, just for this season, made of gold. It would not only honor this seasons winner, but All past winners as well. It would serve as a tribute to the past as it honors this seasons champion.

No.

The silver is clean, simple, and class. I don't see the need for gimmicks to celebrate anniversaries.

In addition have any of you noticed that the NFL Shield at NFL.com is now gold ?

I don't cae if it's plaid, as long as it winds up in Green Bay. But to your point, I actually like the idea.

At first I thought that might be a good idea (gold trophy not shrink wrap) but the more I think about it the more I disagree. I understand your point Smokey but I'm a traditionalist and when I see those 5 superbowl trophies lined up at the Packer HOF I'd like them to be all the same. I know I was really pissed when I bought season 5 of the Simpsons and it came packaged in the homer head. It just looked out of place on my shelf.

Some sort of gold embellishment would be OK but then again, like Hoss says, I don't really care what color it is as long as the Packers are the ones hoisting it come February

I think it sounds kind of cool actually. But on second thought, it would make the 50th trophy seem extra special or suggest that it was potentially better than the other trophies just because it's the 50th. As a result, I wouldn't think this would ever happen.

Although things do change. No one would suggest keeping the same type of Super Bowl rings from Super Bowl I. Things like this generally get "bigger and better" through the years.
