I believe that you may be thinking of the 1982 AFC Championship game, when the Miami Dolphins groundskeepers failed to supply a tarpaulin for a field that was already soaking wet from the previous day's rainstorm.



No Excuse for Missing Tarpaulin

(By Dave Anderson)

Incidentally, earlier that same season the Dolphins were the victims in "The Snowplow Game", a contest in which the Patriots (in Foxborough) had a convict that was on work furlough quickly drive onto the field with his snowplow to clear a spot for Patriots placekicker John Smith, who attempted (and made) what proved to be the game-winning field goal.
