The Chicago Bears had it. All they needed to do was make a field goal, and the team would have sent the fans home happy with a win over the Green Bay Packers. However, the fairytale would soon become a nightmare as the Packers blocked the game-winning kick, keeping Bears fans in permanent purgatory.
