CBS’ Spectacular Super Bowl XLVII Open

When CBS opened its broadcast of Super Bowl XLVII on Sunday, the network used this produced package featuring past Super Bowl MVP’s including Joe Namath and Lynn Swann. This set a new standard for opens.

This was a mashup of Queen’s We Will Rock You by Helmut VonLichten with the NFL on CBS theme by E.S. Pothumus. I was really impressed with this and I think you will be too. It lasts 3:05 and totally worth every second.

That’s it.
