Their first Super Bowl victory came at Super Bowl IV when the Chiefs defeated the 23-7 in 1970. Since that win, the Chiefs have not only not won another, but this is their first visit to the Super Bowl since then.In that Super Bowl -- which was the last of the AFL-NFL World Championship games before the merger -- Doc Severinsen performed the national anthem with Pat O'Brien, and viewers tuned in to CBS to watch quarterback Len Dawson, who was the game's MVP, lead his team to victory despite the Vikings being favored. The Chiefs were able to get through the "Purple People Eaters," the Vikings' impre sive and forever famous defensive line.A 30-second commercial during the broadcast cost $78,000, which is nothing compared to the current price of for the same amount of time this year.

Super Bowl IV saw none of this.There were Milton Williams Jersey only in the country back in 1970. There were not nearly as many stations as there are now, to say the least, and there was no DVR or rewind button if you mi sed any of the action.
