Classic Team Logo of The Day

31 Jan

It’s not a team logo, but the “official” logo of the first Super Bowl, before the game was even known by its’ current name. The game was called the AFL-NFL World Championship Game for the first 2 years, and was renamed the “Super Bowl” before the Jets and Colts played in the third game. After Green Bay Packer coach Vince Lombardi succumbed to cancer in 1970, the league named the trophy awarded to the winner of the game after him, to honor his legacy. Also, this first “Super Bowl” was televised by both NBC, which carried the AFL games, and CBS, which televised the NFL.
