Super Bowl XLVIII goes down this Sunday, February 1, at Metlife Stadium in New Jersey. Folks near and far are prepping for watch parties and the like, but none of that matters if the game is lackluster.
While crossing our fingers with hopes that this won’t be the case, Hip-Hop Wired couldn’t help but revisit some of the most jaw dropping moments in Super Bowl history.
We’ve seen it before. There’s been moments when hands nationwide were on the brink of changing the channel, only to see one big catch, interception, or the like change the fabric of the game with less than five minutes left in the fourth quarter.
These are the kind of moments that go down in “Big Game” history. Whether or not this Sunday will produce an instant like this remains to be seen. As we await the Super Bowl and all the spectacles that surround it, hit check out a gallery of the memorable game closing moments. Give us your thoughts in the comments.
