No, the Patriots did not make it to the Super Bowl in 1982. What you are referring to it is infamous "snow plow" game, December 12, 1982, between the New England Patriots and the visiting Miami Dolphins. In the fourth quarter of the game, with 4:45 left in the game, New England Patriots Head Coach Ron Meyer sent Mark Henderson and his tractor onto the field to clear away the snow and ice that had been steadily building on the playing field so the Patriots could kick a field goal. Kicker John Smith made the kick and the Patriots won the game 3-0. Mark Henderson, the man who cleared the field for the kick was awarded a game ball by Meyer for his efforts. Henderson was a convict who was out of jail on a work-release program at the time. The tractor and brissle brush attachment used to clear the snow and ice away is on display at Patriots Place. Following the season, the NFL reviewed what happened and banned the use of the snow plows and other such devices during game play.
