    / The Golden Anniversary ofthe Super Bowl: A Legacy 50 Years in the Making An Honors Thesis (HONR 499) by Chelsea Police Thesis Advisor Mr. Neil Behrman Signed Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2016 Expected Date of Graduation May 2016 §pCoJI U ncler.9 rod /he. 51;;:, J_:D ;l.o/80J · Z'7 The Golden Anniversary ofthe Super Bowl: A Legacy 50 Years in the Making ~0/G , PG.5 Abstract Originally known as the AFL-NFL World Championship Game, the Super Bowl has grown to become one of the largest sports spectacles in the United States. Cities across the cotintry compete for the right to host this prestigious event. The reputation of such an occasion has caused an increase in demand and price for tickets, making attendance nearly impossible for the average fan. As a result, the National Football League has implemented free events for local residents and out-of-town visitors. This, along with broadcasting the game, creates an inclusive environment for all fans, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of professional sports. This paper explores the growth of the Super Bowl from a novelty game to one of the country' s most popular professional sporting events. Acknowledgements First, and foremost, I would like to thank my parents for their unending support. Thank you for allowing me to try new things and learn from my mistakes. Most importantly, thank you for believing that I have the ability to achieve anything I desire. Second, I would like to thank my brother for being an incredible role model.

  • FIELD GOAL KICKIN' – the 1976 Oakland Raiders
    FIELD GOAL KICKIN’ – The 1976 Oakland Raiders By Dean Gearhart 3/2/15 During the last episode, I noted that in the 1977 Topps football card set, one of the few teams that did not have a kicker represented in the set was the defending champion Oakland Raiders. I fast-forwarded to my 1978 set. Ah, there he is…… Errol Mann. Turning Errol’s card to the back, I see that he was, in fact, the Raiders kicker on their championship team. I also saw that he has a pilot’s license…..very nice…..and in 1976 he connected for 26 Extra points for Oakland……. …….and 4 field goals…… (record scratching sound effect)……4 field goals? Do what? I quickly turned to pro-football-reference.com to check the stats for the 1976 Oakland Raiders and it turns out that Errol took over for an injured Fred Steinfort. Well, that makes sense then. Steinfort had made 4 field goals of his own before getting injured, making for a grand total of……uh……8 field goals…….for the world champion Raiders. Really? When one thinks of the 1976 Raiders many images come to mind. They were led by quarterback Kenny “The Snake” Stabler and coached by the legendary John Madden. Their defense included Ted Hendricks (“The Stork”), John Matuszak (“The Tooz”), Skip Thomas (“Dr. Death”) and Jack Tatum (“The Assassin”). They finished the regular season a dominant 13-1-0, with a Week 4 blowout loss at New England the only blemish on their record. As fortune would have it, the Raiders would get a chance to avenge that lone defeat when they hosted New England in the first round of the AFC playoffs.

  • The Following Players Comprise the 1975 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1975 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1975 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble.
