wdm1219inpenna Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Here is my first of what I hope will be many really off the wall Super Bowl type trivia questions.Here is #1.Relative to the spirit of this forum (consider this to be a clue).....Relative to the spirit of this forum, what happened for the first time in Super Bowl V, played in January 1971, which did not happen again until Super Bowl XXVI, played in January 1992?At the risk of giving away too much info, the clue has something to do with uniforms.Regards,Bill McD.

BlueSky Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Designated home team wore "roadies"?Do you mean the traditional roadies (white) or that specific team's roadies (Cowboys wear white at home so the blue would be considered their road unis)? Wikipedia says the 'Skins wore white as the home team in SB XVII, and the Cowboys were the home team in V but had to wear blue due to an NFL policy that the SB home team had to wear their colors. That was discontinued after SB XII.Let's see, V had Dallas in blue over silver and Baltimore in white over white. XXVI had Washington in white over burgundy against Buffalo in blue over white. I have no idea what this could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred T. Jane Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Designated home team wore "roadies"?The Cowboys wore dark uniforms in Super Bowl V. [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

LMU Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 The only thing I can possibly come up with is that a super bowl patch was warn on the uniforms. Other than that, I have no clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedleyLamarr Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 The NFC Champion hailed from the East Division was the "home" team, while the AFC Champion hailed from the East Division was the "road" team.Solved.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I know the answer.The game came down to a last second FG for the win. Easy.But seriously, idk. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Shot in the dark: Nobody on the rosters with single digit numbers?EDIT: I found a Colts plaque that seems to back this up, but a Washington one that appears to show two guys with single digits. Never mind. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

wdm1219inpenna Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 Somebody forgot their helmet in both gamesWell folks, you were all right around it.It had to do with their helmets.The Cowboys helmet features a star, the Colts a horseshoe. It was the first time that neither team's helmet had any kind of lettering featured on their helmet decal.Green Bay had a "G" in Super Bowls I & IIKansas City had a "KC" in Super Bowls I & IVNY Jets had the "JETS" in Super Bowl IIIThen Super Bowl V featured 2 team helmets with no lettering in their helmet logos. This would not occur again til Super Bowl XXVI, when the Bills (Buffalo charging) and Redskins (Redskin face in a circle w/feathers) were the featured helmet logos.VI, VII, VIII, XVII & XIX all had the Dolphins, which features a tiny "M" in the helmet that the Dolphin wears.IX, X, XIII and XIV all had the Steelers, who have "Steelers" written on their decalXI, XV and XVIII had the RaidersXII, XXI, XXII & XXIV had the Broncos, which featured a giant "D" at the timeXVI, XIX, XXIII and XXIV had San Francisco's SFXX had the Bears "C"XXI & XXV had the "GIANTS"So there ya have it folks.....new question coming down the pike, thanks for playing, the answers were awesome that you gave, and a few of you were right around it!
