SKU: 00172DHIn 1967 the first Super Bowl was billed as the World Championship Game, AFL vs NFL. Played January 15th, 1967, before 61,946 fans at the Los Angeles Coliseum. The term “Super Bowl” wasn’t coined for another year. The National Football League (NFL) champion Green Bay Packers defeated the American Football League (AFL) champion Kansas City Chiefs by the score of 35–10.
The first half of Super Bowl I was competitive, as the Chiefs outgained the Packers in total yards, 181–164, to come within 14–10 at halftime. Early in the third quarter, Green Bay safety Willie Wood intercepted a pass and returned it fifty yards to the five-yard line. The turnover sparked the Packers to score 21 unanswered points in the second half. Green Bay quarterback Bart Starr, who completed 16 of 23 passes for 250 yards and two touchdowns, with 1 interception, was named game MVP.
