This is one of my favorite random historical tidbits about the Super Bowl, so I felt obligated to mention it coming off of the news for this year’s Super Bowl and the accompanying commentary that it will be the first simulcast Super Bowl ever. There was a pretty amusing snafu for SB1 where NBC (the AFL network at the time) missed the opening kickoff for the second half, and the teams were forced to redo the play — can’t imagine that that’ll happen again this year.
