Super Bowl I to be Shown on TV for First Time in 50 Years

If you missed watching the very first Super Bowl in 1967 you'll finally get a chance to catch it this week.

The original tapes from the very first Super Bowl were infamously erased after the game was broadcast on both CBS and NBC 50 years ago. The match up between the Green Bay Packers and the Kansas City Chiefs was never seen again, until now.

NFL Network has painstakingly hunted down archival footage of every play from the game, stitching them together with modern graphics and analysis. CNN reports that there were 145 plays during the first Super Bowl, which meant that there were countless man hours needed to find and assemble the footage.

There is one tape that was found in an attic that is said to hold footage from Super Bowl I, but that film was not available since the owner couldn't agree on how much to be compensated for its use.

If you want to catch the game, it will air on the NFL Network on January 15. Spoiler alert: the Packers won 35-10.
