Super Bowl I between the Green Bay Packers and Kansas City Chiefs on Jan. 15, 1967 was the only Super Bowl ever to have been broadcast on two television networks.
Friday, on the 49th anniversary of the Packers' 35-10 win over the Chiefs, it will be shown again for the first time since.
The NFL Network announced that it will re-air Super Bowl I for the first time ever at 7 p.m. CST Friday. Originally aired by NBC and CBS -- the official broadcasters of the AFL and NFL, respectively -- the tapes of Super Bowl I were either lost or recorded over, according to a release. Because of that, there was no full video remaining of the game, which was played at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
However, "in an exhaustive process that took months to complete," the folks at NFL Films were able to find all 145 plays from Super Bowl I and compile them in order while also re-mastering the sound and video. The three-hour broadcast scheduled for Friday will use audio from the NBC Sports radio broadcast of the game and have modern graphics added to enhance the viewing experience. Chris Rose and Steve Mariucci will anchor pregame, halftime and postgame segments with various guests joining them.
According to the release, other things to look forward to include Packers head coach Vince Lombardi wired for sound, postgame interviews with Chiefs head coach Hank Stram and NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle and a full detailed explanation of what exactly happened to the original tapes.
Fittingly, one day after the historic re-air, both the Packers and Chiefs will continue their quest for Super Bowl 50, as Kansas City will head to New England to take on the Patriots and Green Bay travels to Arizona to face the Cardinals.
I’m going to win the over/under betting on this one...
I would like to see it even tho I no longer watch NFL games.
I remember it was not even close to a sell out. A Green Bay sub who was I think in his last season ended up being a hero. I think it was Max McGee.
Bart Starr was his usual brilliant self and was named MVP. Back then the QB called the plays in the huddle and Starr was the best.
How much do I have to drink for the Chiefs to win? ;p
How old are you now, like a hundred?
44 but act a lot older as many people tell me.
I’m predicting a Packer win!
Those were real men.
In hindsight, we should have gone to the game. However, in those days, except for high school football games and an occasional Dodger or Angel game, we rarely attended sporting events.
I had made my first visit to the Coliseum about a month before the Super Bowl, on December 16, 1966, to watch the El Rancho High School Dons of Pico Rivera defeat the Anaheim High School Colonists to win the California Interscholastic Federation championship. El Rancho, arguably the best team in the nation that year, was a rival of my alma mater Whittier High School, but my mother taught English at El Rancho, so we went to the game and rooted for the Dons.
But these days, I'm very familiar with the Coliseum. Since 1973, I have attended all but a few USC home games there. I have also been to 15 Rose Bowl games.
Preview of SB 50?
It was called the NFL-AFL Championship Game for I and II, then Superbowl for III.
"65 Toss Power Trap!"
The story goes that McGee was injured then and wasn't supposed to play that game so he went out and partied in LA the night before and was mostly hung over or still drunk at game time. Lombardi put him in the game and he made one hell of a catch and run.
He was a damn good player even when he was sober! ;~))
For what it's worth, I heard an old Steeler linebacker, Andy Russel, interviewed on the radio this morning. He played in the 60s and 70s, won two Super Bowls and was named to the Pro Bowl numerous times. Bottom line, he was one of the best linebackers in the business.
They asked him what was the most money he ever made in a single year, and he chuckled and said lots of linebackers now make more money in just one game than he made in 12 years in the NFL. His top salary after 12 years and two Super Bowl wins was $100,000.
Things sure have changed.
Lived in Maitland, Florida, at that time, working for Tektronix, Inc., and spent most of my time at the Cape in those days. The day of the game I was on planes to Portland, Oregon, for meetings and the pilot kept coming on the P.A. updating the passengers on the score.
It wasn’t called the Super Bowl then.
I’ll probably take a look at it. I know that the NFL had put a bounty on any films several years ago, because this was the only game with no preserved network record.
Which telecast are they using?

Well well that old school Super bowl game LOL!
Show me Heidi game NFL network that game was shown before I was born LOL!
I want see the game that tick off even my Raider fan father
Sorry, but according to High School Football National Championship
In 1967 the High School National Football Champion was a tie:
Reagan Austin (TX) 14-0
& Coral Gables Coral Gables (FL) 13-0
BTW the next year... 
they tied again. However, in 1970, Austin Reagan won it all by themselves.
