Super Bowl Trivia

Alicia Keys will kick off Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans with her rendition of the National Anthem. Beyonce and Destiny’s Child’s Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams reunite for the half-time show, but it wasn’t always star-studded. In 1967 at Super Bowl I, the University of Arizona and Grambling State University marching bands performed the National Anthem, while trumpeter Al Hirt performed with them in the half-time show.

Only three Super Bowls have been represented by a single Roman numeral – Super Bowl One, Five, and Ten (I, V, and X). But, we only have to wait until 2016 to see a single numeral again with Super Bowl 50 (L). After that we have to wait 50 years for Super Bowl 100 (C) in 2066.
