What one play, image, etc. stands out to you from each Super Bowl you've watched? Doesn't have to be limited to something that happened on the field, some of these games were plain awful and unremarkable

XXXI - Favre running around on the field like a little kid
XXXII - TD playing through migraines to win SB MVP
XXXIII - Eugene Robinson getting arrested for solicitation the night before
XXXIV - one yard short
XXXV - Ray Lewis winning SB MVP a year after murdering someone at the SB
XXXVI - Madden - "If it was me, I'd take a knee and head to overtime"
XXXVII - Raiders C who went AWOL before the game
XXXVIII - Kasay shanking the kickoff
XXXIX - Eagles down by 10 late in the fourth taking their sweet time on offense
XL - Horrible game, horrible officiating.
XLI - Hester housing the opening kick
XLII - Tyree's catch
XLIII - Harrison's TD return at the end of the first half
XLIV - Onside kick to start the second half (LOL Hank Baskett)
XLV - Don't really remember much about this one, other than pussy sportswriters complaining about the cold weather in Dallas all week
XLVI - Welker's butterfingers
XLVII - Blackout
XLVIII -
and it was all downhill from here

Forgot about Welker not being able to catch

Not really, but I just remember the Manningham throw/catch more. Amazing throw.

The second 49'er Bengal Super Bowl, the Krumrie broken leg and him not wanting to leave.

The Bills Redskins, Gibbs wearing a cheap arse headset because his wasnt working at start.

The Cowboys Bills first game the Irvin catch then of course Lett.

The Cowboys Bills rematch, the Bills offense in first half was on fire.

The Broncos Falcons, The Eugene Robinson story and closeups after he got burned by Rod Smith.

The 49'ers Dolphins Roger Craig high stepping on the swing pass

Ravens Giants the KO return

redskins/bills - nothing

cowboys/bills x 2 - leon motherfricking lett.

9ers/chargers - jerry rice TD

cowboys/steelers - neil O'Donnell INT

packers/patriots - desmond howard

packers/broncos - favre intentional grounding on like the first drive

broncos/falcons - Falcons DB getting torched

titans/rams - the drive...one yard short

ravens/giants - back to back KR TDs

rams/patriots - ty law taking it to the heezy

bucs/raiders - so much to choose...Derrick Brooks

patriots/panthers - Panthers kicking it OOB on KO

patriots/eagles - slept through this one...Europe

steelers/seahawks - the refs giving the steelers an undeserved TD

colts/bears - couldn't watch. Middle east plus saints disappointment

giants/patriots - Samuel's would be INT slipping through his fingers moments before the catch

steelers/cardinals - james Harrison TD

saints/colts - I was there...easily Tracy Porter's INT which I had the perfect view of, I can see him jumping the route still and knew we had a TD before the ball was in his hands...time slowed down for that one

packers/steelers - how lame and anti-climactic the post game celebration was

giants/patriots - manninham's catch

ravens/9ers - KO return for TD

seahawks/broncos - manning derp to start the game

seahawks/patriots - tom brady giving Sherman the business and pointing to the score board and signaling something about his 4th ring

thinking about it, it was an amazing run of defining plays from 07-09

2010, 2011, 2012 were pretty forgettable despite 2 very close games...nothing particularly memorable

The Manning hype before this game got to unreal levels. It was like nationally people had forgotten what a great regular season the Saints had, Manning was unstoppable and the Saints were headed for an arse kicking.

My oldest Super Bowl memory is the Cowboys beating up on the Broncos in the Suoerdome- the 1st Super Bowl played in the Superdome (I think it was the first).

Most of the Super Bowl games have sucked.

By far, the best game was the Eli Manning/Tyree comeback against the Pats.

And my favorite, of course, was the Saints winning over the Colts.

I've been to 2 Super Bowl games- the Raiders beating the Eagles and the Bears blowing out New England.

I think the Eli throw to Manningham was pretty memorable in 44. I agree with you on the other two. Unless you count the lights going out in the Super Dome

i dont remember much from any of them really. some bigger moments when the games were tight, like the santonio holmes catch or the david tyree play, yeah sure.

most of them, i remember where i was and who i was with, but pretty much nothing about the game itself. i guess it's better that way.

one of my favorite memories is the janet jackson halftime thing. me and my dad were at a sports bar and drove home during halftime. didnt even know it happened until the next day.

first Super Bowl I remember watching the 49ers-Broncos in New Orleans.

it was 27-3 at halftime. I remember watching Joe Montana throw some deep TD's to Jerry Rice and John Taylor. 49ers blew them out like 55-10.

the next one was a lot more memorable though. The Bills-Giants SuperBowl was during Desert Storm and it was a great game. The Giants stayed in the game with a ground attack keeping Buffalo's offense off the field and shortened the game by chewing up clock.

I think an underrated favorite point for me in the Saints Super Bowl was watching Pierre Thomas take a screen pass and score the first TD of the game for the Saints. Cashing in after the onside kick was a must and fricking PT wasn't going to be denied.

Colts went up 10-0 and I took the Saints in-game. It was awesome.
