From a story on theathletic.com by Bill Shea headlined “The man who covered every Super Bowl: Jerry Green and the end of an epic run”:

It was January 1967, and in Los Angeles, hundreds of sportswriters were gathering for the inaugural AFL-NFL World Championship Game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Green Bay Packers.

Among them was 38-year-old newspaper reporter Jerry Green, dispatched to L.A.’s cavernous Memorial Coliseum to cover pro football’s new championship game for The Detroit News.
