With this being the 56th Super Bowl there must be a dwindling number who have seen them all.

There’s probably a number of fans who for whatever reason were alive but haven’t seen them all.

I’m just curious how many senior fans we have on this site. Including the non Cowboy fans here.

Tell us how many Super Bowls you’ve watched.

I started watching them at Super Bowl XIX. I was 9 years old then, Marino was basically still a rookie and was my idol growing up. Cowboys and Dolphins were my favorite two teams back then and really got into the NFL at that time.

I don’t recall watching games before this and didn’t get to enjoy Cowboys success until the 90’s teams.

I have seen most of them, after cowboys won the first SB, I didnt watch SB's again unless cowboys were in it or some other team
I took a liking too, so I missed quite a few.
Started watching them all again in 88 till now.
I have seen some I missed on you tube though, but still about 10-15 I didnt see.

Yeppers...rabbit ear snow n all at least back in the day.

If I didn't watch the game live...the news sports segment, and later the dedicated sports channels, filled the gap...or Sports Illustrated when TV wasn't readily available.

Lets just say I could have watched all the games if life allowed.

Go Cowboys!

Saw all but one--the 1975 Steelers v. Vikings (missed due to lack of interest).

The 1971 classic Cowboys v Colts heart breaker is the one that still haunts. Greatest quote, before the game Cowboys Duane Thomas told a reporter "If its (Super Bowl) the ultimate game, then why are they playing it again next year?"

Rewarded the following year, SB 1972--got to see Cowboys pound Miami and watch Ditka catch a Staubach TD pass.

First one I watched was X when I was about to turn 6. Then the next 5. So I missed 2 though I was alive and may have watched with my Dad as a baby ..1970 kid

I’ve seen them all.

I was depressed this morning when reflecting on this….I saw the Cowboys play in 8 of the first 30 SBs…and zero of the last 26. In the age of “parity”.

For Jerry's Cowboys, it's "parody" these days.

I've been alive for all of the SBs, but the first one I remember watching was SB V. Pretty sure I cried when O'Brien made the GW field goal.

Awesome Bob!

But I’d argue we had Parity thru our glory eras as well with Equal TV Revenue and how smaller market franchises like Green Bay and Pittsburgh were able to build Dynasties. The Salary Cap didn’t create Parity. It was put in place to uphold it.

I still have the Sports Illustrated cover from after that Super Bowl. I’ll never forget when it arrived with Renfro leaping in air in those jinxed blue jerseys.

The first 2 SB weren’t even called Super Bowls until later.

The first official SB was actually SB 3. Which was when it became the national spectacle it is now.

Namath was like a cultural icon for a rebellious kid and football fan growing up in the 60’s. He legitimized the AFL with greatest upset in NFL history as the merger had just been announced.

That still is probably my most memorable non Cowboy Super Bowl.

Super Bowl III (Broadway Joe) was the first on I watched, have not missed a Bowl or at least part of a Super Bowl since then.

Started watching at super bowl 4. Was born in 1970. Good to see I am not the only older person here. Surprised at the age some of you are. Always think when posting here that it’s younger people.
How do you watch a super bowl at one year old? You are indeed a super fan!!
