Super Bowl Telecast Notes

Entering Sunday’s 54th Super Bowl, teams from the exclusive televising conference or league network of said Super Bowl are (24-17).

This will be the ninth Super Bowl telecast by NFC/Fox Network. The AFC team is (5-3) in the previous 8 such games.

The first Super Bowl, as with the 54th involving the Kansas City Chiefs, was telecast by both CBS, the NFL network and NBC, the AFL carrier.

It was NBC’s Charlie Jones, who, before the first such game before it was known as The Super Bowl, famously stated the broadcasters would be relieved of the tension, after the “first verb.”
