FIRST SUPER BOWL GAME HELD ON THIS DAY
Green Bay QB and game MVP Bart Starr, Super Bowl I, 1967.
As NBC and CBS had held the rights to nationally televise
AFL and NFL games, respectively, it was decided that both networks were allowed to broadcast the game.
Kansas City QB Len Dawson.
WE REMEMBER THE FIRST SUPER BOWL
Both CBS, the NFL network, and NBC, the AFL carrier,
provided coverage of the first game. Each provided its
own announcing crew, and had their own technicians at Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles.
ALL-FEMALE FLYOVER FOR THE SUPER BOWL
GLENDALE, Ariz. (TND) — This year’s Super Bowl will be history-
making between the national anthem and kickoff. For the first
time ever, the pregame flyover will be piloted by an all-female
crew.
The team will be commemorating 50 years of women flying in the
U.S. Navy.
It was back in 1973 — in Pensacola, Fla. — that the first eight
women began flight school. A year later, six of them, nicknamed
“The First Six,” earned their Wings of Gold.
Sunday’s flyover in Arizona will be comprised of two F/A-18F
Super Hornets from the “Flying Eagles” of Strike Fighter
Squadron (VFA) 122, an F-35C Lightning II from the “Argonauts”
of VFA-147, and an EA-18G Growler from the “Vikings” of
Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 129.
