How bright was Vince Lombardi’s smile after winning his second Super Bowl? Outside the shadow of Joe Montana, how elusive was Steve Young while trying to win his first? Did David Tyree really make that catch because of his helmet?
We would absolutely love nothing more than to step inside a time machine. Unfortunately, we’re fresh out of plutonium and our flux capicitor is fried. Therefore, Getty Images will have to do.
Below is a memorable, lasting image from each Super Bowl, from 1967 to 2016. Enjoy your trip through time.
