Seeing the intros at the start I couldn't help but think of Vikings guard Jim Vellone who died while still in the prime of his life at age 33 from Hodgkins Lymphoma. When he retired he endured chemo for the last 6 years of his life while raising 2 sons until he passed in 1977. Think about this every time you think you have it bad in life or want to quit. Maybe this year the Vikings get back to the Super Bowl and finally win it for all these guys who represented the purple jersey. Imagine if it's KC/Minn meeting again in a Super Bowl in 2025.

We lived in the Kansas City market and were huge Chiefs fans. I remember watching this came live with my dad when I was ten years old. Great memories, thanks for the upload.
Got the Super Bowl IV Tudor Electric Football Game from the 1970 Sears Wishbook for Christmas, 1970. The plastic pieces for the game were representative of the colors the teams wore in the SB, and I liked the red guys more than the white guys. Thus began a lifelong love affair for me and the KC Chiefs. And, I live near NY City! Lots of ridicule awaited me when my team perpetually stunk during my junior high, high school, and college years until I attended a playoff game, at Shea Stadium in NY, 1986 and saw them get crushed by the Jets. That was their first playoff appearance since the infamous Christmas Day 1971 loss to the Dolphins. Lots of frustration and heartbreaking playoff failures awaited me from 1986 until 2020, when they did something that I never thought I would ever live to see ... a Super Bowl victory, let alone a Super Bowl appearance. So I, like many long time Chiefs fans have paid their dues, and are revelling in today's successes. Thanks for the video!
I was a 10 year old kid who attended the longest game in NFL history in K.C. MO. in old Municipal Stadium. Christmas Day 1971, which you referenced. Yep, it's still a disappointment after 53 years!! Thank goodness for this current wonderful era in Chiefs history!!
I also got that electric football set for Christmas that year. I was a Vikings fan. Little did I know that the Vikings and Super Bowl Sundays would not end well through 1977 when they last appeared in the big game.
I remember that exact Tudor football game. My parents took us kids to St. Louis for our annual Christmas shopping trip. At Sears, the toy department had that Chiefs vs Vikings game out of the box and all set up, ready to play.
I had that same electric football game as a 9-year-old Chiefs fan. I especially liked it when the players locked arms and danced together on the field!
This was THE game that made the AFL equal! Loved it. A contrast in coaching styles, as well. Hank Stram was perhaps the first to coach a professional team, as in he treated his played like colleagues. No scolding, just collaboration. They could address him as "Hank." Bud Grant was like a high school coach, requiring players to sing along during the national anthem while standing at attention. Both teams liked their coaches and those styles.
That was the SB one year earlier when Joe Namath guaranteed the NJ Jets to defeat the vaunted Baltimore Colts 16-7...This SB proved that by 1970...the best players were on the AFL side...😮😮😮...
@@willielittle9301People were saying the '69 Super Bowl, when Joe Namath and the Jets beat the Colts, was a fluke - until Len Dawson and the Chiefs trounced the equally heavily favored Vikings. The AFL went out a winner. Oddly, in the 4 Super Bowls during the existence of the two leagues, it was 2 for each league. Then from 1971 on, during a time when people accepted the equality of the two leagues (now conferences), the former NFL dominated for many decades. Of course, that's counting the Steelers and Colts as former NFL teams, despite their being in the AFC.
1969 Super Bowl but played in Jan 1970 I barely remember this but I was watching at 9 years. BTW I miss Pat Summerall's voice. also was Jan Stenerud the 1st kicker to go side foot?
I think before free agency players knew they could be stuck on a bad team for years and did their best to win. As a Falcon fan from 1970-1999, I remember watching Tommy Nobis and felt so bad he played on such horrific teams. If he played now, he could have played a few years for a bad team and then signed with a better team or just could have made tons of money for a looser without trying.
Always a constant knock on nfl players of today. Believe me, most care a great deal about the game. There are just a few brave enough to speak up and act up against the social prejudices of our time. it's all part of what 'freedom' means.
Only a few minutes into this....very clear picture so far! Also honoring the Apollo 12 crew.....2 of which had just walked on the Moon some two months before. Good stuff!
After leaving NASA, Dick Gordon moved to New Orleans and became a front office executive with the Saints. He was slated to command Apollo 18 and walk on the Moon himself, but the mission got the ax after Apollo 13. So short sighted to cancel those missions, seeing as how it's 55 years later and we still haven't gone back. Pete Conrad and Alan Bean each went on to command a Skylab mission. According to Conrad himself, the emergency repairs that he and his crew had to go EVA to perform in order to save the station after it was damaged during launch were the most satisfying thing he ever did in space, more satisfying even than walking on the Moon. All 3 members of the Apollo 12 crew are gone now, with Bean and Gordon living into their late 80's and recently passing but Conrad dying of injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident in 1999.
@@dskyyksd Pete Conrad's leadership in saving the Skylab is one of the most under-appreciated success stories in U.S. history. Pete was also the "comedian in space" with his wit.
Only one year before, Apollo 8 was honored. Including Apollo 12, four missions were launched and recovered between SBs III and IV. NASA was busy chalking up some amazing successes. 🏈🚀
Even though Jets upset of the Colts with Joe Namath's famous guarantee is the more famous Super Bowl, it was really this final AFL-NFL matchup with the Chiefs beating the Vikings that helped seal the deal that the AFL could compete with the NFL, resulting in the 2 leagues being merged into the NFL and having the two conferences, the AFC and NFC.
The AFL could compete at the top, but Pro-Football-Reference did a study that showed from top to bottom the NFL was still quite dominant up until about 1973. Indeed, they showed it the next season when the Super Bowl featured two NFL teams and the Steelers would dominate the AFC for a decade
I wanted the Vikings to win as I watched this game at age 12 on a b&w TV in my bedroom in Beaumont, Texas. It was soon very evident that The Vikings were going to be defeated so I turned it off and went outside.
I was 12 too and I lived in Long Island as I still do- I became a fan about 3 weeks before when I turned on the tv one day and saw a purple teams playing in the snow and I was suckered in!!! I have been a Vikings fan ever since. many heart aches and snake bitten games But who knows. maybe this year with Sam D as the QB we will win the SB, I too went outside after the game to play with my friends who made fun of me because my team lost. lol. What are friends for right
I also watch this game on the other end of the Mississippi river 80 miles from New Orleans and the others against Miami, Pittsburgh and Oakland, I feel your pain, hopefully we both can enjoy a Super Bowl victory this year, starting against the Rams time for the big payback
Alan Page and Jim Lynch were teammates on the 1966 National Championship squad at Notre Dame. They faced Gene Washington and Clinton Jones in the Game of the Century when ND and Michigan State played to a 10-10 tie. NFL Films wired Hank Stram for this game.

My first super bowl at age 14 for my still home team, KC. I don't have the recording tape now but I recorded the sound of this game and I really thought this was the first of many super bowls for this team to come.
l was 12 when i watched this in my surban kc home. that whole chief's season was magical to me and my buds. i remember going out for ymca jr high football the following fall and we had so many kids show up they had to divide the b-team in two. i bought the album of chief's radio highlights of that season. that album is available on yt. i rewatch these old afl videos to try to recapture that magical feeling i had as a kid. not quite successful yet. but close on occasion. but someone needs to find a color version of that 4 quater though. i can't believe the network or the nfl didn't keep a color copy of the entire game.
Exhibit A! Buck and Summerall were fantastic announcers. The whole simplicity of the broacast just sucks you in. It did then. It does now. My, how far Pro Football has fallen with it's hype and lack of integrity, imagination, not to mention over-exposure and useless pundits.
Yes. But everyone understood what year the season took place back then. It' just hard now for so many to grasp since they don't refer to super bowls this way now which is a great relief I imagine to all the fussy folks who can't stand it being referred to this way.
The Raiders were one of the reasons my Chiefs didn't get back to a super bowl with this team. We actually lost twice during the season to the hated Raiders only to beat them in the playoffs.
@mikeyoung9810 - I remember losing to the Raiders twice in 1969; yet, prevailing in the AFL Championship game 17 - 7. The critical play when Dawson was in his own end zone and threw an out pattern to Otis Taylor (who caught the ball at around the 35 yard line, while going out of bounds). From there, the Chiefs had the necessary momentum to win and proceed to the Super Bowl. Nevertheless, similar to you, I hate always hated the Raiders.
@jkrasney1 I'm actually a 50+ year raiders fan and I live in oakland, but I haven't watched a single game since they moved to las vegas. I'll say this, in those early days the raiders were always in the AFL championship game it seems but they just couldn't get to the super bowl other than 1967 when they beat Houston 40-7 but lost to Green Bay 32-14 in super bowl 2. That's why I'm so impressed with the consistency of the kansas city chiefs these days. Between 1967 and 1977 the raiders played in 9 AFL/AFC championship games but only advanced to the super bowl 2 times finally winning super bowl XL. I know chief fans are proud of what mahomes has done with the franchise. He's without a doubt the best quarterback in the NFL.
The AFL is different then the NFL when it come with Race relations that why many Black and Hispanic players from that time love the AFL/AFC it didn't let racist owners like the owner of the Redskins tell them not to draft Black players
I doubt it will. The Vikings have a very good team, but Detroit and Philly are both better imho. It's a shame the loser of the regular season finale this Sunday will slip from the #1 seed to the #5 seed and the wild card round. Who would have thought that a team with a 14-3 record would not win their division and be a road wild card team ? That will probably never happen again.
K..C has 6 Defensive Players in the Hall of Fame off this Defense..They actually should have 8 of the 11 starters with Mays & lynch the 1969 chiefs were incredible 🎉🎉🎉
The next Christmas I received one of those electric football games of these same two teams... Chiefs and Vikings. Played it a lot with my brother although we must have used our imagination quite a bit as looking back the concept really sucked. The game vibrated and that motion moved the payers along the field. We'd stack our offensive into a pyramid and try to power through.. Oh well we had fun as kids.
People kept telling me that this game was only on black and white and i told them that i had seen it in color..and then i found this,video after many years...
This is the 1st time I have watched the entire Super Bowl. Wish it had the commercials. Loved the half time show. Glad that a color version has been released even with half the 4th quarter in B/W. 😀
I wish it wouldve been played in a blizzard the Viks wouldve owned them didnt know they could run back a field goal attempt that fell short of the goal line
They probably could have, but in those days you played on the field you were dealt. I miss the days of the foul weather being part of the game. Both teams had to deal with it so it probably wasn't a big deal back then. Now with todays technology, heating devices under the turf in some stadiums, domed stadiums, and better ways to maintain fields the elements aren't as extreme. Even today the one thing you never can prepare for is weather that happens during a game, you still have to gut it out.
Seeing the intros at the start I couldn't help but think of Vikings guard Jim Vellone who died while still in the prime of his life at age 33 from Hodgkins Lymphoma.

Between 1967 and 1977 the raiders played in 9 AFL/AFC championship games but only advanced to the super bowl 2 times finally winning super bowl XL. I know chief fans are proud of what mahomes has done with the franchise. He's without a doubt the best quarterback in the NFL.
Super Bowl IV was in 1970
Did you notice how many black players Kansas City had they even had black cheerleaders
The AFL is different then the NFL when it come with Race relations that why many Black and Hispanic players from that time love the AFL/AFC it didn't let racist owners like the owner of the Redskins tell them not to draft Black players

😂😂 look how huge those logos are on the helmets!! I Watched this for my first super bowl at 7 years old...
The beginning of big game Viking futility, hopefully it changes this year Skol!
Wait and see come playoff time
I doubt it will. The Vikings have a very good team, but Detroit and Philly are both better imho. It's a shame the loser of the regular season finale this Sunday will slip from the #1 seed to the #5 seed and the wild card round. Who would have thought that a team with a 14-3 record would not win their division and be a road wild card team ? That will probably never happen again.
sorry not this year.
@delmofritz3964 we will see but it will be a tuff road
Would love a video of that ABA all-star game.
Wow I live like half a mile from this stadium
Not anymore It was torn down in 1980
@ I live half a mile from the new stadium then, and I live closer to where the old stadium was
Sure miss that choir huddle
Here's the start of a day of Vikings miscues. In first down territory, Beasley drops it @ 14:26
I don't believe the Vikings ever held a lead in all their Super Bowl games...
Correct, and they did not score in any first half! Still hard to understand how a team that played so well otherwise was so poor in SBs.
Len Dawson and Fran Tarkington?
No Tarkington was with the Giants by then. Joe Kapp was OB for Minn
Tarkenton. No "g"
A lot more offensive running game in that time.
Chiefs whooped those Minnesota clowns. I watched this at age 3.5. All hail the glorious Chiefs.
What a game. Notice how you can't tell who the announcers are rooting for? Ya, that is how media reporters used to be when we had a free press.
K..C has 6 Defensive Players in the Hall of Fame off this Defense..They actually should have 8 of the 11 starters with Mays & lynch the 1969 chiefs were incredible 🎉🎉🎉
No screen graphics back then. Was the same as listening on the radio. Had to really be paying attention to the game .
You had to wait until the broadcasters gave the score or time remaining
52:54
There it is.
“It might pop wide open.”
Come on, Lenny! Keep matriculating that ball down the field!!
Hey Pat, there was no Super Bowl in 1966!! And this was played in 1970!
1966 season, played on January 15, 1967 Packers 35, Chiefs 10
Nobody taking a knee?
At the 40 yard line on the Kansas City end zone side looks like a side profile of Tom Landry. Wet spot or bad field

But did they run it after matriculating the ball down the field?
@@82dorrinexactly ....the memories are priceless
@@82dorrinafter they ran around the field like a Chinese fire drill.
The next Christmas I received one of those electric football games of these same two teams... Chiefs and Vikings. Played it a lot with my brother although we must have used our imagination quite a bit as looking back the concept really sucked. The game vibrated and that motion moved the payers along the field. We'd stack our offensive into a pyramid and try to power through.. Oh well we had fun as kids.
People kept telling me that this game was only on black and white and i told them that i had seen it in color..and then i found this,video after many years...
This is the 1st time I have watched the entire Super Bowl. Wish it had the commercials. Loved the half time show. Glad that a color version has been released even with half the 4th quarter in B/W. 😀
I wish it wouldve been played in a blizzard the Viks wouldve owned them didnt know they could run back a field goal attempt that fell short of the goal line
The Super Bowl in 1969 was played between The NY Jets and Baltimore Colts.
The game in this video was played in 1970.
Following the 1969 season
@ : That’s correct.
Super Bowl III Jets vs Colts was 1968 season
@@michaelleroy9281 : Yes and it was played in January 1969.
No victory was guaranteed in this game like it was the year before
Jack Buck and young Pat Summerall.
'69 was the Colts and Jets.
The Chiefs won because they kept matriculatin’ the ball downfield.
First one i remember
52:50 - 65 Toss Power Trap
So they couldn't manage to cover the field and protect it from heavy rain before the game. 😮😂 How times have changed.
They probably could have, but in those days you played on the field you were dealt. I miss the days of the foul weather being part of the game. Both teams had to deal with it so it probably wasn't a big deal back then. Now with todays technology, heating devices under the turf in some stadiums, domed stadiums, and better ways to maintain fields the elements aren't as extreme. Even today the one thing you never can prepare for is weather that happens during a game, you still have to gut it out.
Gene Washington. I have heard that name in 20 or 30 years, or maybe longer.
1970 not 1969
America's team vs. "Wrong way" Jim Marshall. What could go wrong?
America"s team? Thst would be The Dallas Cowboys.
@@delmofritz3964 Nope. Never was. never will be.
I've hated the Chiefs for 55 years since they beat the Vikings in 69.
@@jamieseiple I had a similar reaction to the 71 Cowboys after Super Bowl VI.
