Superbowl 1

[Cydonia]

At half time the Packers only led 14-10. Then Dawson threw a pick on first drive of second half and all momentum went to Pack. Interesting.

[Brage999]

Soccer rules the world.

[BlitztheDragon]

Although he had left football by this time, Don Hutson was and will always be best Packer.

[2stich]

y did they have the goal posts more to the front before

[jojosgames8]

This was played in 1967

[jojosgames8]

Don't you mean this game was played in 1967

@IzAnM3R3Te Green Bay Packers. N00b

[lamaguy56]

just to let u know the game was in 1967 not 1966

[GGE47]

Starting in 1960 the American Football League was formed.They each had their own chhampionship game,but the National Football League game meant more.NBC carried the AFL games in spite of low ratings.CBS carried the NFL.Each had their own draft,leading to a bidding war over the college players drafted.The owners decded to merge to prevent this.The first four Super Bowls were still separate leagues.NFL won two and AFL won two.The two AFL wins were giant upsets.

I have the entire game originally filmed in super 8 and then transferred to a quality DVD cut. Thanks Dad!

[riotman75]

Show me the video and I'll believe you.

[gamelvr1]

@riotman75 /watch?v=I0ZOzf62L9k

type that in after the .com of youtube. Right there is some highlights of the game. Like I said, they air highlights of all the superbowls EVERY year in the buildup. It's moronic to say that there aren't any highlights.

[doglover72118]

what song is this?

[warriorforchrist4]

John 3:16

[ricarleite]

There's no footage of this game, right?

[gamelvr1]

@ricarleite There's footage of the game out there. Where did you get the idea there wasn't?

[riotman75]

@gamelvr1 No, apparently there was going to be footage, but the network decided to tape a soap opera over it.

[gamelvr1]

@riotman75 There is footage. In the buildup to the superbowl, there's always a slew of things about the previous superbowls. I've seen the footage. It's there if you simply pay attention.

As the story goes, Lamar Hunt's daughter was playing with a "super ball" (one of those small rubber balls that bounce a mile high) and he asked her what she was playing with. He turned the phrase "Super Bowl" after she told him. True story.

[mwliechty]

This game was played in 1967, not 1966.

[Fanik8]

yes, technically the game was in 1967, but it was the final game of the 1966 season.

[gamelvr1]

@mwliechty It's for the 1966 season though.

[azbaldy5]

As we can look back the KANSAS CITY CHIEFS WERE A DAMN GOOD FOOTBALL TEAM ! LEN DAWSON, BUCK BUCHANNAN, BOBBY BELL, WILLIE LANIER, are all in the hall of fame.

[stylesclash101]

yes kansas city didnt suck forever, they were a once proud organization

[azbaldy5]

they were the best team of the AFL in the 60's

[TripleMMMPro]

ha suck that bears

[generationll]

This was played in 1967.

[ScubaStevo99]

nice vid

go chiefs!!!

[chiefsfan360]

Its too bad that we couldnt pull the 1st superbowl off. Maybe it would be the Lamar Hunt trophie.

[SuperBowlExpert]

Oddly enough, that's the name of the trophy that goes to the AFC champions every year.

[tamachi78]

what song?

[devils950003]

It's the instrumental portion of Rihanna's "Murderer", I think.

[bigdaryle]

I wish the Chiefs arrowheads on their helmets were still as large as they were then.

[muli456]

great vid. im a packers fan!

[corey44445]

packers 4 life

[fairnorth]

This is great! Although I was an A.F.L. fan, I have not seen some of these photos before. Actually I did not become a football fan until about four months after this game was played. I began by collecting football cards, since no football games were being played at that time. I hope N.F.L. FILMS does a play by play of this game.

[NFL8527]

Sick video

[simulatedbass]

RIP Lamar Hunt who coined the phrase "Super Bowl"

[solidworksinventor]

Actually it was his daughter. It was a twist on a popular toy called the superball. I had the honor of meeting him in 1970 when the chiefs were world champions.

I was always an NFL fan but it was neat to meet those guys.

[concretespecial]

@simulatedbass Yea, I believe it was his grandson playing with a super ball that gave him the idea. Super ball to Super Bowl. That's the story. Good thing the kid wasn't playing with a slinky! We'd be watching Slinky bowl XLV this year. Prior to this it was just called the NFL championship. RIP Lamar Hunt. 

[mikeat704]

and the best sport in the world.

[TNUCARU]

WTF Its the fucking shittest sport in the World. A GLOBAL FAILURE.

[solidworksinventor]

What are you talking about? Its the most popular sport on the planet. Who cares if it is global?

[TNUCARU]

WTF how the fuck is it "the most popular sport on the planet". It's played by 1 country, it's shit. You need to get out & see the world dumb-ass.

[mikeat704]

Still it's better than soccer, basketball or watever the world plays. am foreign and I grew up on European Soccer, but football is way more competitve than soccer. Am still an Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid fan but the Carolina Panthers come first.

[TNUCARU]

Who give a fuck what you think Faggot; you're wrong end-of pussy. Keep your nobodies sports, they're failures like the people who play them!

[reznor97]

dude shut the fuck up.. who hates on a sport? really... americas sport is american football... everywhere else its soccer

[Vstrat0]

ah hey man.... I was gonna back u up all the way.... 'til you said the panthers.... NO WAY

CHICAGO BEARS 4EVER!!!!

[mikeat704]

You know the bears can never hang with the Panthers, but I got to give it up for that Bears D.

[EWGFus3r]

@mikeat704 i agree

im from europe too but converted from soccer to football 4 years ago and never looked back!

GO PACK GO!

[WiiCustomMDx]

@mikeat704 You can't support 3 football teams mate

[Claymore2408]

@mikeat704 You're a fucking fake, you're not european if you're fan more than 1 football club and no EUROPEANS calls it soccer faggot.

[solidworksinventor]

I don't need the world. American football rocks. You are the dumb ass. Go see the world. And stay there.

[TNUCARU]

"Go see the world. And stay there" - That is one of the stupidest comments I have ever come across & surprise, surprise it's come from an american.

What do you mean "stay there" motherfucker, I already am on 'the world', what do you think I'm owning you from the Moon or something you fat, stupid, slack-jawed-yokel.

[mikeat704]

So.............you are pissed at us because we like football, and you don't even know us???????????

LOOSER!

Eat A Dick With Aids On The Tip.

[TNUCARU]

You liking it is fine, why you do like a woman's sport like that I'll never know. But it is certainly NOT "the best sport in the world" without a shadow of a doubt, so don't be bullshitting mike.

[AllPro777]

Well, Football is played by at least 2 Countries, since Canada has had the CFL even longer than the NFL has been around.

Also, while it may not be super popular in other countries, it is actually played in a number of countries around the world. Japan and Ireland come to mind.

[imnislander2]

and thats how it all began...
