The GREATEST BROADCASTING ACCIDENT in Super Bowl HISTORY | Super Bowl XII

- Опубликовано: 1 ноя 2024
- At Super Bowl XII between the Dallas Cowboys and Denver Broncos, the initial plan prior to the game was to have CBS air a 90-minute pregame show. However, that did not happen. And if you ever thought to yourself why the Super Bowl pregame shows are so long, well, it started by a complete accident on the part of CBS that was never supposed to happen, yet, changed the game forever. This is the story of the unintentionally long Super Bowl pregame show that changed everything

I remember that long pregame, The thing to me that stands out the most was when John Denver and Walter Cronkite were interviewed together and were asked which team they were rooting for...John Denver said, "Do you really think with the last name I have, I wouldn't be rooting for Denver?" Walter Cronkite replied. "Well, I guess you can call me Walter Dallas today!"
Never heard this story before. Thank you for digging it up. Now I know what to blame for the obscenely long pre-game that I do not watch.
So a one-off rainstorm in the Arizona desert is why we have the Super Bowl Pre-Pre-Pregame Show Show Show every damn year.
Thanks, Nature.
And people. Don't forget the people that tuned into the pre-pregame show and stayed in the first place!
In 1976, the final round of the Phoenix Open golf tournament actually FOLLOWED the Super Bowl.
It was the largest audience ever to watch a televised golf tournament until the 1997 Masters (Tiger Woods' first Masters victory).
The only sporting event with a higher pregame show to actual event time ratio is the Kentucky Derby.
One Dallas’ wins in 1977: 14-6 win over the Broncos in Week 14
In that game DEN QB Craig Morton went 0-1 & posted a QB rating of 39.6. Compare that to Super Bowl XII when Morton went 4-15 for 39 yards and threw 4 interceptions for a QB rating of 0.0. So, yes, Morton threw an incomplete pass in the Week 14 game that resulted him having a higher QB rating than he did in Super Bowl XII
Good gawd, that's the worst QB stats I've ever heard. Poor feller probably never got over that.
That was the eve of my 5th birthday, so I don't remember that game. I do remember Tony Eason getting benched in Super Bowl XX. Eason at least managed the proverbial 39.6 passer rating by not throwing an interception on 6 pass attempts.
Morton passer rating in Super Bowl V was 34.2. Cue the catchphrase.
Oh that is how the 48 hour super bowl pre game plan was born. 😯 This SB 12 basically created the modern all day big game programming for the network broadcasting it.
🤣🤣🤣
Great story--Never heard this one before. Fantastic reporting and finding this information. Awesome video
Then in 1990, CBS Sports was airing the MLB All-Star Game but a rainstorm delayed the game. _Rescue 911_ aired during the delay.
Fun fact (that I've already mentioned in other video comments): the New York Giants traded their first-round pick in 1975 and their second-round pick in 1976 to the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for future Denver QB Craig Morton. While the second-round pick Dallas got in 1976 didn't do much for them, the Cowboys used the first-round pick on...Randy White, one of the best Cowboys defensive players EVER...
Boy, the Giants were likely kicking themselves over that one...
This actually didn't resume until later on. CBS started leading in with the NBA, reducing their pregame to two hours. The first time they did was in 1990, to hype "the championship season" (had the Super Bowl, NBA Finals, and World Series) so Suns/Celtics was at noon and then a three and a half hour pregame followed. The network that had both the NBA and the Super Bowl would follow suit (it was NBC three and four years later). But since it hasn't happened since ABC last had the Super Bowl in 2006 it's been consistently a five or six hour thing.
Now the Oscars have joined, the only difference is a news break, then back to the red carpet
Another note: this year began 17 straight in which the Celtics hosted on Super Sunday, ending with the 1994 game against the Suns which was Kevin McHale's jersey retirement.
Had CBS led in with a later Blazers/Celtics start instead of planned R4 Phoenix Open coverage, this probably never happens.
I'm now interested in seeing what happens when ABC has Super Bowl LX.
Really enjoying all of your content. Cool and interesting stuff.
Just seeing 2 seconds of the SuperBowl 44 pregame show is bringing back bad memories. As a Jags fan you got a little bit of pleasure putting that one in didn't you? Lol great vid as usual!
I love the backstory and how there's a good reason CBS didn't have a backup plan for the golf tournament in Phoenix raining out.
And it's funny to see how a complete accident sometimes results in something that works out in the end.
@aDg 2k18 I know Phoenix is in a desert, but while rain there isn't as common as it is in, say, Seattle, you do need to have a decent plan B because rain does fall in the Valley of the Sun on some occasions.
In a great many ways, the success of that ultra-long Super Bowl pregame show, coupled with the extended analysis of the Blazers/Celtics game directly beforehand, helped show that the world could support sports analysis absent the sport itself. Because of that, a start-up TV network in Bristol, Connecticut would be born one year later. A network, as it happens, dedicated to providing sports, and sports analysis, 24/7, taking advantage of the then-nascent technology known as cable television. ESPN, of course, would be wildly successful, and go on to create a world in which a constant flow of sports would be available to anyone, at any time, catapulting every sports league, especially the NFL, into a level of financial success utterly unthinkable to anyone in the early 1970s.
Now, imagine a world where the Phoenix Open *doesn't* get rained out on that fateful Sunday morning....
Supersized Super Bowl pregame shows would have happened eventually.
Respect to the uploader. Great story.
My day is never complete without a JG9 video.
This was the 1st SB played in prime time! Everything before this had started no later than 4pm Eastern and those were West Coast games! I'm sure that was a gamble in itself since the CBS prime time lineup was a juggernaut!
Wow that's incredible. I was wondering when the NFL started doing Super Bowl games in prime time and damn this the game that started the 6 pm eastern time Super Bowl starts.
Oddly enough, I have a video on why that was, and why this was the first one in prime time: ruclips.net/video/Ac6RO4VD450/видео.html
The previous Super Bowl was the first to begin and end while the sun was still shining. Oddly enough it was played at the Rose Bowl which JG9 did a video on concerning SBXIV at the same venue the other day.
@@Rockhound6165 I thought for sure Super Bowls 1 and 7 that were played at LA Coiseum both started around 1 p.m. local time which would have put them ending during daylight hours as well!
I always remembered Super Bowl XVIII starting at 4:00 for some reason, and it moved two hours later the next year cause of Reagan's second inauguration and just stayed there.
Of course John Riggins' run as night fell at the Rose Bowl the previous year would have been my first clue but.........memories
Brother, I commend your dedication to the sport you love; cricket is my game, but each to their own. Couple of pointers for the future - 1) get a better microphone, and 2) work on doing some echo reduction wherever it is you're recording your voice-overs. Other than, keep it up, my good man!👌🇦🇺
Another idea for a Super Bowl video: the time Irv Cross is ordered off the field when he doing a live feed.

Hey man. I love your channel. Its so unique, fascinating, fun to watch. You are passionate, knowledgeable, and articulate. NFL Network would be crazy not to hire you on. Please keep up the great work. My only minor suggestion is to get yourself a podcast mic. You might be in a room that creates echo. Trust me, its worth the $50 or so on Amazon. The production quality will go up dramatically!! Just my 2 cents. Great work!!!
I remember that the NFL TODAY hosts were flown in on helicopters at the start of their pre-game show at Super Bowl 10.
Apparently the winter of 1977-78 was a wet one in the western US. My dad moved to Southern California the previous year and still talks about how the following winter it often rained hard enough to flood intersections. I know Phoenix is quite a ways inland, which is partly responsible for its more arid climate, but it does occasionally get rain and sometimes even snow (seriously; it happened about a year ago). On top of all that, winter tends to be the wetter season west of the Rockies.
That said, the previous winter (1976-77) saw record drought conditions in the West. So if that drought had hung on for another year, maybe Super Bowl pregame shows would still be 30 minutes or so today.
I'd watch this, but the Super Bowl 57 pregame show is starting any minute, so....
As this was the first SB I ever watched as a kid, I did not know this. Pretty interesting. I grew up thinking all the pre-game shows were long...haha.
If you had been fortunate enough to have seen the Super Bowl the year before you would have seen something most football fans have never seen and likely never will see, a Super Bowl that kicked off in sunshine and finished under the sun. Super Bowl Sunday when I was a kid started out like many other NFL Sundays, wake up in the morning, eat breakfast then play a little FYFL, Front Yard Football League with some friends and at lunchtime the Super Bowl would kickoff and you'd watch the game and have dinner after the game was over. Super Bowl XI was the last SB played entirely in daylight. It was the end of an era and it came on the heels of something we'll never see happen. Back in 1976 you could have walked up to one of the ticket windows at the Orange Bowl where Super Bowl X was played on Super Bowl Sunday and bought a ticket for face value, $12!
@@davidcobb2693 That is so true. Another thing I forgotten about. That goes for all sporting events these days.
good crap it takes forever for this guy to explain a 40 second story.
Having lived in Tucson for a bit I can attest to the frequency of rain. In winter, we didn't get much rain but in the summer from July onto about October we would get squalls like Florida. It would rain for like 10 or 15 minutes and by rain I mean deluge. It would rain so hard and so fast that roadways and intersections in certain spots turned into rapids as the run off would head for the dry river beds and that's because the ground in Arizona was like concrete. There are actual warning signs to not drive through certain intersections as the water would be so fast and hard they it would carry cars away. I remember one instance where a school bus got carried away(no kids were on the bus at the time). So, yeah, raining in January in AZ, at least in the desert, didn't happen very often.
This might've been the first time golf was a lead-in for the Super Bowl. The PGA regularly opens in January with events in Arizona, California, and Hawaii, which typically air in the late afternoon or early evening Eastern Time. In fact, in several previous years, golf aired *right after* an early-mid afternoon Super Bowl.
So, let me get this straight:
- CBS was planning to take advantage of Super Bowl XII's primetime slot to air a live sports marathon, with an NBA game between Portland and Boston as well as the final round of the Phoenix Open golf tournament, as a lead in to what was supposed to be a 90 minute pre-game show for the Big Game.
- The NBA game went very well, with the Trailblazers overcoming a huge deficit to defeat the Celtics.
- And then the most unlikely disaster struck when the PHOENIX OPEN was RAINED OUT! A GOLF TOURNAMENT IN ARIZONA WAS RAINED OUT!
- CBS, realizing that they were completely screwed, and with no other feasible options, was forced to extend the pre-game show by another two hours haphazardly.
- The decision worked out so well that Super Bowl pre-game shows began to trend towards longer run times to the point of sometimes breaking six hours in length.
And it would also lead to a deal CBS struck with NASCAR a few months later to broadcast the following year's Daytona 500 start-to-finish, the first time an entire 500-mile automobile race was televised start-to-finish. And that was nearly rained out, as well, as it rained at Daytona that morning, but it cleared not long before CBS went on the air, and they were able to run the full race that year with the infamous finish between, first Donnie Allison and Cale Yarborough, and then when they crashed on the final lap, Richard Petty, Darrell Waltrip, and A.J. Foyt, followed by the fight between Yarborough and the Allisons (Bobby and Donnie) in the turn three infield. That race is likely never televised start-to-finish if not for the birth, accidental as it turned out to be, of Super Sunday as we know it the prior year.
And to add to the concept of live pregame shows having only recently become the norm by the mid-1970s, NBC didn't even bother with a regular-season pregame show until 1975 (the football lead-in show prior to 1975: Meet the Press)
Craig Morton was also returning home, he played at Chalmette HS and was a school legend
By accident. Cool. I've heard that CBS discovered penicillin, too.
Yep, I hear they are working on a new anti-aging cream
You could go 10 more years without bringing up Super Bowl XII. Instead let's talk about Super Bowl 50. 😀
Reminds me of that Sports Night episode "Draft Day: Part 1 - It Can't Rain at Indian Wells."
It is Phoenix in February not the rainy season.
February is still in the middle of winter.
And I believe this, which turned out to be the birth of "Super Sunday", would eventually lead to CBS taking another huge chance the following year. A few months after Super Bowl XII, CBS struck a deal with NASCAR to televise the 1979 Daytona 500 live from start-to-finish, the first time a 500-mile race would be televised live from start-to-finish, something that was also nearly wiped out by rain. Fortunately for CBS and NASCAR, the weather lifted just before they got on the air, and the 1979 Daytona 500 was run, as scheduled, and millions got to see an entire 500-mile race on live TV for the first time.
That Phoenix Open postponement reminded me that the Chicago Cubs also had to deal with torrential rain at its Scottsdale spring training camp late the following month (February 1978). Still remember on the front page of one of the last sports sections in Chicago Daily News history was a b&w photo of Cubs utility infielder Mick Kelleher navigating the floodwaters covering the Scottsdale field in a steel tub and using a bat as an oar.
His only claim to fame?!
"Didn't want them to blow their load" LOL. Nice
It's remarkable this was Denver's first time ever in the playoffs including not making it in AFL
They were so bad for so long that if not for the late Floyd Little's popularity, that playoff berth could've been attained in another DMA/TV market.
@@marcus813 Some of the Broncos wore those ugly striped brown and yellow socks from those early days.
Man a basket ball and a final of a golf tournament the same day as the Superbowl that would never happen today.
ABC would broadcast hoop while either CBS or NBC would broadcast golf. I remember a friend of ours was still watching golf on NBC when Super Bowl 50 was about to kick off on CBS.
I think after that they stop showing golf on the Network that have the Super Bowl on the same day but Basketball may it be NBA or NCAA are still seen but so far the last NBA game before the Super Bowl were in 2006
@@coreylevine3856 check this yrs nba scedule..
I thought this was going to be about the wardrobe malfunction..... lol
You mean if Phoenix had experienced its normal weather on one random day, the last 44 years of Super Bowls would not have been preceded by six hours of people who know next to nothing about football acting like authorities on it while talking about a game that hadn’t been played yet?
This means a rainstorm in Arizona in 1978 ranks as the worst weather disaster in the nation’s history, in that we haven’t recovered from it yet!
Lol yes that sums it up about right 😅
@@jeremybiewer5465 Thank you.
The original broadcast felt like waking up hours early for work. It reminded me of a telethon.
CBS can't be blamed...its Phoenix... do you know how rare rain is here?
Was it a DRY RAIN??
@@glennlaird2899 When it rains in Phoenix... it's rarely a slow drizzle... more like monsoon rain.. but sadly, we may not see rain for 6-8 months at a time...
I sure wish that golf tourney wasn't rained out.
The SW gets the majority of thier precipitation during Winter and monsoon season (mid-late Summer). If we have an El Niño going, then the chances of precipitation increases. When a low impacts SoCal (more often during El Niño) area then moves east, then you might get precipitation in Phoenix.
The host city’s network affiliate will even have their own pre-game show early in the day! I remember watching WDIV having their own sometime around noon (maybe earlier) before SB XL in Detroit. I distinctly remember anchor Carmen Harlan interviewing the Steelers’ Larry Foote, a Detroit native and Michigan alum.
that would actually have been WXYZ-TV, the ABC station in Detroit
@@LogoAttitude yup - which means the whole super bowl pregame show phenomenon is worse than I remembered. WDIV (the NBC affiliate) did in fact have their own pre-game coverage, even though they weren’t carrying the actual game.
In 25 years of watching football, I don't think I've seen a total of 6 hours of the Super Bowl pregame show, let alone seen an entire show.
Normally when a PGA broadcast is delayed or cancelled by rain, the network replays the previous year’s final round. Because this was a lead-in to the SB, they likely sold ads at a higher than usual rate. A rerun of an old golf tournament would upset those advertisers. Whether what CBS came up with satisfied the advertisers I don’t know.
I saw that game.I was also at the Superdome 4 days B 4 it officially opened.🏈
The NBA i remember started before the Super Bowl Pre game show on CBS in the 1980's on NBC in the 1990's and ABC in the 2000's
Fun note: the Suns/Celtics Super Sunday 1990 game that I referenced in an above post was repeated on NBC four years later. A lesser Celtics team (post-Big Three/Reggie Lewis(RIP)) vs Phoenix with Chuck and KJ, yet came out inspired on Kevin McHale jersey retirement day and won 106-94
@@mgb4692 Love the Celtics!!!
CBS caught another break a year later thanks to weather. A snowstorm kept people in the house to watch the Daytona 500.
True, and for a while it was a lot bigger nationwide until DE3 died
@@teen_laqueefa de3 ruined nascar and Bill France let him get away with it.
Supersized Super Bowl pregame shows would have happened anyway.
Were it not for the Winter Olympics this year (2022), I think NBC would actually have had ten hours of pregame programming, starting with a special edition of "Today" (8-9 A.M..EST) focusing on the host city and game related features, then a special edition of "Meet The Press" (9-10 A.M. EST) that would be an hour-long interview with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, followed by a "How To Cook Super Bowl Meals" show (or maybe a "Football 101" to teach people more about the game) from 10-11 A.M. EST, then from 11 A M.-12 Noon EST, a history of the Super Bowl, then the usual six hours of pregame programming.
I think the era of ten hour Super Bowl pregame shows is no more than a couple of years away.
They got Peacock streaming service now
Close to their lineup from four years ago:
12: Road to the Super Bowl
1: FNIA pregame
6: Pregame festivities
10: Post game (further was on NBCSN)
with the new NFL TV contracts, the Super Bowl will now rotate among all big 4 networks, and NBC will have all theirs in the same calendar years as the Winter Olympics, at least until NBC loses the rights to the Olympics at some point, which would make the NFL change the rotation to benefit the new Olympics rights-holders

"A super long pre-game show?????.....…...............I mean, that's just dumb!!!!!!!"- Ron Burgundy
I believe the earliest start of a pregame show was Fox (I believe it was their first super bowl). It started at 11:00 a.m. eastern time.
That was a very hard-hitting game. Great defenses on both sides, hence all the turnovers and mistakes.
I understand that it rarely rains in Phoenix, but didn’t they have weather forecasts back then?
This was a really good telling of now the Super bowl pre game show got to be a week long. Now we know why there's a two week gap between championship week end and the big game. Wait what's today Friday? That means I only have one day to get all my party shopping done before the pre game start's. Wait is the pro bowl part of the pre game too? And if it is then that would make the pre game show for the pro bowl part of the pre game for the super bowl? This is like trying to guess when sports center start's and end's on ESPN.
I actually like the Pro Bowl where it is as a kickoff to SB week. It'd be even better if you had it at the same venue (as in 2010 and 2015) but I see where that might be a logistical problem.
The only (one?) time the Pro Bowl was really fun where it was anyway was when it went head-to-head (on ABC) with the NBA All-Star Game (CBS). Then David Stern (became commish three days later) moved the game and that was that.
But if you keep the Pro Bowl where it is now at least there's still the "part of something" carrot even if technically no one should really want to play in it
NFL before the Super Bowl always had a two week break between the end of the regular season and the title game. Reason for that was that if there was a tie for the conference championship a playoff game was played to break the tie. Playoff games to break ties ended in 1967 when the NFL went to a four division format.
It won't be the last time for CBS in 2017 on Thursday Night Football the Bears/Packers game was stopped for about 45 minutes cause of the storm. CBS aired The Big Bang Theory & half of Mom during the delay
I want Cannibal Corpse to do the halftime show but the network bigwigs think they know everything.
If the Bills and Bucs were ever to face off in an SB, CC would be the perfect choice for halftime (as they formed in Buffalo, but later relocated to Tampa)

This whole story reminds me (since I'm a big pro wrestling fan lol) of Wrestlemania 37, lol....I think it was the first WWE ppv to have a rain delay. (as it was taking place in the open-air Raymond James Stadium) So they didn't want to do any matches while it was raining, for obvious reasons, they basically just had some interviews with various people backstage for about half an hour or so....with varying results, by the way, lol
Thankfully, that didn't lead to the "kickoff shows" of wrestling PPVs being longer than they already are. The damn PPVs themselves are already long enough, thank you!
I am quite surprised that it was not mentioned in passing that Craig Morton could have had a higher quarterback rating if he spiked the ball on every play...
I remember back then that when CBS had the broadcast, they would have a Saturday night before special programming called "Super Night at the Super Bowl." With famous singers and celebrities showing up in a variety show. Back then the National Anthem and the halftime show would be done by local city singers (and relative unknowns, usually) and marching bands, or the group Up With People. The National Anthem at SB X was sung by a young blind guy from the Up With People group. The SB XII halftime show I remembered featured both Cheerleading teams, plus the game was so boring that there where plenty of gratuitous video shots of cheerleader torsos, which aroused a 15 year old like me. I don't think I had ever seen that before.
Not exactly the look of confidence on the face of Craig Morton at 3:34 in the pregame line up. And shaking the hands of your opponents and embracing your old rival just before the big game? Not a recipe for success.
Also that the following 2 Superbowl were considered top 5 of all time (SB13) and (SB14)
I think 2 hours Pregame for SuperBowl is enough
Which was exactly what it was on Super Sunday '87 on CBS: College basketball at 11:30 (DePaul/Georgetown), NBA at 1:30 (Sixers/Celtics), then Super Bowl XXI pregame. More is more.
@@mgb4692 And Super Sunday 84 on CBS College basketball they had Houston/Kentucky game back then

Oh, this was also the 2nd Super Bowl I ever bet on and lost. Denver was my 2nd team(the Cardinals were my first team) so I bet my dad. He won. My 12 year old self was pissed.
At that time, the Broncos and Cardinals represented different "beer cities" - Denver and St. Louis, the homes of Coors and Anheuser-Busch.
The Cardinals joined the Broncos in the Four Corners states, namely Arizona, in 1988.

Pre game show? A colossal waste of time. I never watch a per game show. NEVER.
I never watch per game either*\0/*
Bad weather for golf means we get a shitload of football coverage.
I'm not going to buy that 100% of the reason for long pregame shows was because of this event! The networks have ways to research and would have come upon the ideas for expanded pregame shows regardless of it rained one Sunday in Phoenix. Yes, the good ratings was a pleasant surprise. However, you can't say short 90-minute pregames would have been the future. Good story though I have heard before.

That wasn't introduced until the late 80s.

This game has been overhyped since Day 1. I always thought the pre-game content was bloated and excessive for what it is, but it makes the networks money so whatever.
