The History of the Super Bowl

6:00 PM - 7:15 PM
Linda Sokol Francis Brookfield Library

Event Details

The Super Bowl is much more than a football game, and as you might know, it is the only sports event that impacts every community in the United States. But, did you know that the Super Bowl rose out of the civil rights movement, specifically the African American boycott of the AFL All Star Game in New Orleans? Evan Weiner, a veteran sports broadcaster will take us on a journey from the birth of the Super Bowl to talk about the halftime shows and everything in between, including how the famed football game got its name.

This program will be presented online using Zoom. You will receive instructions for signing into the event by email in your registration confirmation.
