Geocache Description:

Vince Lombardi was a Brooklyn born and bred original.  He is remembered here with a plaque alongside some neighborhood heros. Click on the links below; I especially like the quotations page. • Lombardi’s signature phrase was, “Winning isn’t everything; it’s the only thing.”

I am influenced in placing this cache by the New York Giants winning The Lombardi Trophy season 2011-2012. During his five years with the Giants, Lombardi helped lead the Giants to five winning seasons, culminating with the league championship in 1956.  He was the offensive coordinator.   I first started to watch and follow the Giants in 1986.  I always watched football, but I became an intense fan during the Lawrence Taylor, Carl Banks, and Mark Bavarro era.  So the very first year I became a Giant fan, they won their first SuperBowl that season in 1987. They won again in '90-'91, and '07-'08. That makes FOUR Lombardi's.

Difficulty is based on high muggle factor. Stealth is a must!

BYOP. Log only. FTF TB included. Cache On!

Congratulations to Schbus86 and Rant666 on FTF!
