Super Bowl XLIV Recap

Was this the most exciting Super Bowl ever?

For more than three quarters, Super Bowl XLIII looked like it would be yet another shoe-in for the Pittsburgh Steelers and a probable win - when, suddenly, all hell broke loose!

The Arizona Cardinals made one of the the greatest comebacks in Super Bowl history as they scored 16 in the fourth quarter.

Then, all hell broke loose - again!

The Steelers ferociously answered the Cardinals with Ben Roethlisberger's 6-yard touchdown pass to Santonio Holmes (with 35 seconds left) which gave Pittsburgh the deciding 27-23 victory. Moments of brillance mixed with madness were the story of this game. Luck and penalties played a larger role than we'd like to see at this level of professional play... but it was a game for the ages with excitement to the last seconds. The Steelers earned their rings.

Super Bowl Tickets

If you want to see the game up close and personal, note that a only 1% of Super Bowl tickets are distributed to fans by the NFL, controlled through an annual random drawing that begins in February of the prior year and ends the following June.
