NFL Refuses To Purchase The Only Known Tape Of First Super Bowl
Around 4pm ET on Sunday, Jan. 15, 1967, the National Football League’s Green Bay Packers squared off against the American Football League’s Kansas City Chiefs in the first ever Super Bowl. Some 50 million people watched the game, simulcast on both NBC and CBS, but neither network retained their footage of the historic event — and the one guy that does have a tape of the game isn’t allowed to sell it.

Sell it at Southeby's! NFL may own the content, but anyone can sell a can of film!
The guy wants a million dollars for a poorly video taped film of a TV set. They will have to put a lot into refurbishing the film to make it worth viewing. Guy should come down to $250k and walk away.
How about Sotheby's instead.
They will sue him if he sells it.
What is it about the past that has us so infatuated?
