Oldest Super Bowl with...

Post by Crazy Packers Fan »

What is the oldest Super Bowl that one of the play-by-play or color commentators is still alive? My guess is XIX, Joe Theismann. As for play-by-play, I think it's XXII, Al Michaels. But it's possible that someone else is alive from an earlier Super Bowl, so I'm wondering if I'm right or not.

He'd be XXII, so just behind Theismann.

Though they didnt call or do color for SBs, its still interesting that Brent Musberger, Bryant Gumbel and Bob Costas are still doing well. Its hard to believe Costas is about to turn 74 years of age?

Michaels is funny though. He got better and more assertive as his NFL career went along, but when he first started out, his high pitched vocal style sounded almost like he took in helium.
