This weekend, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles will meet in Super Bowl LVII at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The Chiefs are looking for their third Vince Lombardi trophy, while the Eagles are looking for their second.

The first Super Bowl was held on January 15th, 1967 at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles, California, where the Green Bay Packers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 35-10. Bart Starr was named MVP.

The University of Arizona Symphonic Marching Band, Grambling State University Marching Band, Al Hirt, and the Anaheim High School Ana-Hi-Steppers Drill Team and Flag Girls performed the Super Bowl halftime show.

The Super Bowl Halftime Show has evolved since Super Bowl I. Many college bands performed until the 1990s when musicians started to perform. Stars like Gloria Estefan, Michael Jackson, U2, Shania Twain, and more have performed at the Super Bowl. This year, Rihanna will perform at the Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show.
