0:01-0:51, the late Pete Fountain and his band performing an arranged version of The NFL Today’s theme song: “Horizontal Hold” by Jan Stoeckart (under the pseudonym Jack Trombey)!
As with the three previous Super Bowls on CBS, the intro provided a brand new theme. Super Bowl 16 had the theme used for Sports Saturday. Super Bowl 18 and 21 would serve as the college football themes (21 still to this day) and this theme would replace Pots and Pans as the NFL on CBS theme starting in 1990.
As a lifelong Broncos fan, this game is why I don't want to bring back those old Broncos uniforms. They remind me of SB losses. This Broncos team had the personnel to compete with the 49ers. They were just badly out coached. RIP Dan Reeves. You had a great career, but you did a poor job of preparing for this game.
Yet who knew this would be Brent's last Super Bowl pregame on CBS? His contract ran out right in the middle of the 1990 NCAA Basketball Tournament, then he signed afterwards with ABC, where he would host the pregame for their telecast of Super Bowl XXV.
The band performing is nice. CBS needs to bring the Horizontal Hold theme for the NFL Today back. Way better then the current theme which is horrible. Wasn't CBS the number #1 rated pregame show when they used that theme? Bring it back!
Seeing the Broncos defensive unit announced is like watching the green mile scene leading up to the execution finale.
Let the coronation begin. Hail the 49ersl
The 1989 49ers are the best team I’ve ever seen. At eight years old I had no idea how legendary this team really was.
FINALLY found this intro!!!!! Had this on a cassette tape and loved this version of the theme!! 👍🏻
Brent Musburger last NFL Super Bowl game on CBS
Before he moved to ABC later that year.
OMG!!! I've been looking for this intro for 35 years and I finally found it. WAHOO!!1 Thank God.
They are all there on my channel from 21 to 56.
Till this day the 49ers still hold the record for most points scored in the Super Bowl 55 points

One of the things that made the CBS intros so good was the opening tease before the game. I always wonder who wrote the copy for the tease.

I wish the super bowl was still $125 a ticket. Going to pay $195 today for Giants v. Cowboys

I was mad we call the dogs off early in the 4th quarter I wanted 70 my best friend is a Denver fan I won 300 from him
I missed the individual introduction of the Super Bowl participants.
I blame the New England Patriots. Once they ran out as a team, everyone else did it.
You're right about that. It sucks.
The starters who worked their whole lives for this deserve that moment of individual recognition
Brent Musberger looked so young in this

A rare SB when the intro was better than the game
Super Bowl tickets were $125!?!?!?!?
Equating that to today, those same tickets would be $258 which also sounds like a bargain in comparison to what today's prices are.
As far as I know, the only other time CBS did animated intros like this was for the four MLB All-Star games they covered from '90-'93
The MLB on CBS was lousy and so does the MLB on Fox. ABC and NBC have better MLB coverage.

Poor Rick Dennison...didn't they have anything nice to say about him?
The band performing is nice. CBS needs to bring the Horizontal Hold theme for the NFL Today back. Way better then the current theme which is horrible. Wasn't CBS the number #1 rated pregame show when they used that theme? Bring it back!
The current theme is the best
no, let it go, the current theme is so much better, this is just crap.
@@sillygoose635 Shut your mouth, Stevie. Old themes are better so please know your role and shut your mouth to quote The Great One.
@@sillygoose635 BTW Stevie, you're the one who is crap, b***h.
Thanks, dude.
Les Moonves really ruined CBS, including the network's NFL coverage by turning the NFL Today into a Fox NFL Sunday and ESPN NFL Countdown clone. SMH.
I'm here for 13:16
The Broncos should have stayed in Denver for this game 55-10.
