“There is way too much to do in Spivey’s corner that players would get distracted too easily…coaches prefer going to cities like New Orleans, Los Angeles and Miami where the social scene is not nearly as hectic.” Pete Rozelle’s trolling game was on point!
Being a lifelong resident of NC and a Washington Redskins fan, I have that game that now is burned onto a dvd. Never thought about going back and watching the pregame but now i'm going back to see if I have that Spiveys Corner segment.
The thing that gets me is the guy was too busy thinking of a play on words with "Holiday Inn" that he didn't consider how much better of a name the "Holler Inn" is on its own. It works so much better lol
Great story. I have a feeling this would've been narrated by Bob Costas; on NBC's broadcast; he has the perfect amount of snark and sincerity to handle this.
(Seeing the title card) Stanford doesn’t have much of a permanent population outside of the university, but JG9 is surely over-exaggerating for clicks. (Watching the video) This is not what I expected. **WHOOOOOP!**
Could you imagine if it actually got the Super Bowl? That would be like a country of three million people, no soccer tradition to speak of, and so hot in the summer they'd have to move the event to December hosting the World Cup
You know something? I was all ready to be disappointed in you. I expected you to make fun of those people for the hollering thing. Instead, you gave an informative summary of why they do that and where that tradition comes from, and it's actually pretty cool. Good on you for that.
To be honest, even if David Tepper replaced Bank of America Stadium with a domed or retractable roof stadium, it wouldn't guarantee Charlotte a future Super Bowl.
My parents were at Super Bowl XIX. My mom would have been about 3 months pregnant with me at the time. And yeah. Stanford Stadium pre-renovation was not exactly top notch. I believe everyone who went got seat cushions with an Apple logo, to help mitigate the wooden seat issue. I think those remained in my parent's house until they moved last June, so almost 40 years.
Pete Rozelle gets cool points for actually delivering a response. Tagliabue and Goodell would've not given a shit. As for other proposed host cities for Super Bowl XIX; well Anaheim Stadium would've been a somewhat reasonable choice (in football mode, it seated about 69K; plus you have Disneyland). I believe you did a video that San Francisco was slated to host XXIX, but renovations to Candlestick Park weren't approved. Issues for host cities still continue. Hell last year, people were bitching justifiably about how bad the turf was at State Farm Stadium; with many on the Eagles switching cleats. As for the guy sneaking a gun into XVIII; well I don't see that happening. Then again, someone could 3D print a gun (far as I'm aware, they can't be detected by scanners).
“6 time hollering champion” My mother would be the Bill Russell of hollering. My mother was hollering at her boy way before it was cool to “Holla at ya boy”.
Reminds me of the American Dad episode in which Roger tried to use the house as a stadium for the World Cup 11:55 Kind of ironic that they would have the game in Tampa with that concern. Right up the block from Ray-Jay is the Bermuda Triangle of strip clubs with 3 practically next to each other
Had Spivey's Corner won the bid, built the stadium and hotel and hosted Super Bowl XIX, that might have led to the Carolina -Panthers- Hollers being established as an NFL franchise a decade before they actually were, and being located at the eastern end of the Carolinas rather than the western end, to give the shiny new structures a reason to keep existing after the game...
It's like the time they awarded the Olympics to Springfield. And then a little kid ruined it all with his jokes and pranks forcing the elementary school to spend a day with the old folks.
This unofficial Official Jaguar Gator 9 historian got flashbacks to the first time you appeared in one of your videos doing the Colts lasso from 1999 when you showed the Hollerin’ contest. You also made a video about the ill-fated Apple commercial that aired during that game.
I get it cause college stadium bigger than NFL. Having saying that I do agreed plus I feel the same way about the Final 4 being held at Football stadium
Why can't use a college stadium? I don't like that only 6-8 stadiums get the super bowl all the time. Weird to have home field advantage potential in a super bowl.
Super Bowl 19 is the first one I remember. I didn't understand the significance of the Super Bowl because I was a little kid, but all the commercials intrigued me. I think it was the year after I realized the Super Bowl was the championship game.
Growing up in NC I remember every Fourth of July we’d have a hollerin contest and the winner won an entry to the Spivey’s Corner contest. My mother informed me of it in ‘88. Gator, you and your memory evoking videos has done it again. Wish me could say this Reiner that but alas I was only 6 in 82. I will say this though; the next year’s superbowl (raiders and redskins. My mothers friend came over to the house and we remember the statement “the raiders killed the redskins literally and left them on the field for dead” I remember I had images of a redskin player actually being dead on the field. Oh the mind of a child.
Within 2 hours of Green Bay there is an international airport and larger regional airport. There are also 4 cities within an hour drive of Green Bay that have many hotels.
In an episode of Green Acres, Hooterville makes a bid for a college bowl game they decide to call the Rutabaga Bowl, after the local crop. Maybe Spivey's Corner was inspired by that.
1:03 There is a 2nd airport (Outagamie County Airport) in neighboring Appleton that is a 34 minute drive from Lambeau Field. It's in the process of doubling their gates and actually has been larger than Green Bay's airport. In fact, they even changed their name to Appleton International Airport.
The NFL should just host every Superbowl there. Neutral site. No need to rotate. Save a lot of work. Just build everything and make it the Superbowl town.
This was the start of cities bidding on the SB cause before only certain sites hosted. Orange Bowl Néw Orleans Rose Bowl LA Colosseum Texas Rice Stadium was the only SB which was outside of New Orleans LA Miami. SB 16 Pontiac Silverdome is where they started using different sites.
Ya know what? Why not? It's not like that town had anything to lose. They had just as much of a chance as any other city when they submitted their bid. DREAM BIG SPIVEYS CORNER!!!!
This years Super Bowl is being play in a 'City' of only 191,000 (Paradise, Nevada) people. Back in Super Bowl XLVII, it was play in a city of about 10,000 (East Rutherford) people. But these cities have a metro population that is a lot larger.
I wonder how many hotel rooms were in Green Bay when the Ice Bowl was played. The Cowboys didn’t even stay in Green Bay that weekend. They stayed at the Appleton Holiday Inn, which was about 30 miles away from Green Bay.
I once lived about 15 miles from there, and have been there many times. You actually could build a stadium there, there's more than enough room. But it's too far away from Raleigh to be a suburban location for a Raleigh-based pro team, if they got one besides the Hurricanes.
i was wondering through the whole video why this sounded familiar. i guess i saw one of the segments before bowls 18 or 19. they should really go back to holding the super bowl in non NFL cities occasionally.
I’ve lived in Jacksonville and Dallas. I was working in Dallas when they hosted the Super Bowl and I can’t imagine Jacksonville being able to host one. The airport there is way too small and the highways are tiny in comparison to most big cities.
What Jackson Texas or Jacksonville Florida hosted one before at the Jaguars stadium i believe it was the Patriots vs Panthers or Patriots vs Mcnabb Eagels
Build a town that can host the Super Bowl, sounds like a Sim City scenario. But seriously, maybe Spivey's Corner can't host a Super Bowl, but maybe they could make a bid to host Wrestlemania.
I can see Charlotte Raleigh Durham Greensboro Asheville or Wilmington host the Super Bowl far as a North Carolina city goes but that said, it would had been funny if it actually went through for Spivey's Corner.
ngl at first i thought this was about standford because thats where the dolpins vs 49ers superbowl happened and it would make sense that standfords population was technically so low since palo alto is right next to it and its also in the bay metro area in general
When I heard about Green Bay's lack of hotel space, I immediately thought about the fiasco surrounding Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville. As for Spivey's Corner, N.C., I got a kick out of that story. Maybe I shouldn't have watched this video at work because I couldn't contain my laughter! Nothing wrong with having big dreams! Getting back to the Super Bowl mentioned here (XIX), that iteration of Stanford Stadium was leveled and replaced for a reason.

Spiveys Corner nowadays is a booming metropolis. Home to 576 people
Farmer types do tend to breed like rabbits, for obvious reasons.
Way to go Spivey's!!! In maybe 2 o 3 thousand years it will have the population of LA
Hey. One hundred years ago Las Vegas was a dusty outpost in the middle of nowhere. Never say never Spivey’s Corner.
As someone who was there back then in a previous lifetime, I can vouch for this. Owned and operated the first saloon there, actually.
The way Charlotte is growing, its suburban sprawl could reach Spivey's Corner someday, and be the site of the Panthers' stadium -- like Irving, Texas or Foxboro, Mass.

Good thing they are doing the Superbowl in my city of Las Vegas. There's nothing here to distract the players.
@@jimmym3352 In theory, the Superbowl is supposed to be the distraction 😄
lol, yeah, cities like Miami and New Orleans create fewer opportunities for players to get into trouble 🤣
Phillip Rivers and Antonio Cromartie have fathered almost half as many kids as the population of Spivey's Corner.
Yes, while Rivers has accomplished this with one woman and Cromartie with many women.
Gotta admit, Pete Rozelle had a good sense of humor about the whole affair.
Carolina Panthers moving to Spiveys Corner next season
At least it will be louder than their games in Charlotte.

This video got more likes in 1 hour than Spivey's Corner had residents when they made their Super Bowl bid.
I spent a week in Spivey's Corner one night. Wildest time I ever had. You haven't lived until you've been to a hoedown AND a hootenanny back to back.
That musta been in 96 when the Shindig was canceled due to Hurricane Bertha. Otherwise you'da gotten to do all three in a row

same lol. even when he said "north carolina" i thought he mispoke and ment "north california" lol
The halftime show would have been awesome - all that hollering would have been awesome.
The other pop culture connection of Spivey’s Corner is that the Hollerin Contest was once stolen on Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego
And I’d wager the only reason the folks behind Carmen Sandiego had ever heard of it was because of this stunt.
Could you imagine if it actually got the Super Bowl? That would be like a country of three million people, no soccer tradition to speak of, and so hot in the summer they'd have to move the event to December hosting the World Cup
Another very interesting story about a forgotten part of NFL history. Thanks for this.
Pop: 335... congratulations on the growth Spivey!
Side note..Is that what Spiderman n Poison Ivy would name kid?
That would be like Liechtenstein hosting a world cup
Or Pitcairn Island hosting a World Cup...
@DamonNomad82 good one. Or the Diomede islands hosting a world cup

It would have been effin' awesome if Stanford had renamed itself Spivey's Corner for the day of the game.

Imagine Goodell's response to this bid were he in charge.
"The year was 1982" because of course the insanity started in 1982
If they made good football games anymore, the Hollar dome and relocation option to Spivey in franchise mode would be a great gag option.
Reminds me of the American Dad episode in which Roger tried to use the house as a stadium for the World Cup
11:55 Kind of ironic that they would have the game in Tampa with that concern. Right up the block from Ray-Jay is the Bermuda Triangle of strip clubs with 3 practically next to each other

Shout out to Spivey’s corner. Whooooup whooooooup.. line of the day: “what is hollerin you may ask?”
The Carolina Panthers could at least give them 1 preseason workout session.
It's like the time they awarded the Olympics to Springfield. And then a little kid ruined it all with his jokes and pranks forcing the elementary school to spend a day with the old folks.
Entertaining video. Well done!! I'm glad I can type this through social media instead of hollerin' it at ya! Yeee haaawww!
A mud puddle of a town hosting the Super Bowl? Makes about as much sense as hosting the Summer Olympics in Lichtenstein. 🤨🇱🇮

Green bay is a small city by nfl standards.
That's why the Packers' radio and preseason TV flagship stations are in the Milwaukee DMA.
By any standards. 😂
The NFL should play a game there similar to how MLB plays a "Field of Dreams" game.
I hated it when any college stadium hosted the super bowl, (rose bowl, rice bowl)
I get it cause college stadium bigger than NFL. Having saying that I do agreed plus I feel the same way about the Final 4 being held at Football stadium
I guess it was to avoid the possibility of a team having home field advantage, but now we can just make Dallas the permanent site.
