Naming The “Super Bowl”

  • In 1966, Pete Rozelle (NFL Commissioner) suggested a few names, that never caught on: “The Big One", “Pro Bowl", “World Series of Football” (it died quickly, deemed too imitative of baseball’s Fall Classic)

  • It was Lamar Hunt, the main founder of the American Football League and owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, who came upon the term “Super Bowl.” As his son, Lamar Hunt Jr., explained, the idea came from his “Super Ball” toy.
