2009 Super Bowl XLIII
Super Bowl XLIII will be held in Tampa Bay. Check bag for more information on the game, the half-time festivities and more.
Super Bowl XLIII will be the 43rd annual edition of the Super Bowl in American football, and the 39th annual championship game of the modern-era National Football League (NFL).
The game will be a matchup between the AFC Champions (either the Baltimore Ravens or the Pittsburgh Steelers) and the NFC Champions (either the Philadelphia Eagles or the Arizona Cardinals). The game is scheduled to be played on February 1, 2009,[1] with kickoff at 6:20 PM Eastern Time, at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. Super Bowl XLIII will be the second Super Bowl at this venue and the fourth overall in that city. Tampa was selected for the game site on May 25, 2005, beating out three other finalists: Atlanta, Houston, and Miami.
The Super Bowl XLIII logo features an abstract representation of a football stadium, with blue and green colors representing the regional waterways and landscapes of Tampa Bay. Eight yards of playing field are shown, alluding to the game's status as the championship of the 2008 NFL season. In a tradition starting with the Super Bowl XL logo, two stars â one red, representing the AFC, and one blue, representing the NFC â are flanked on either side of the Super Bowl XLIII logo.[2] The tagline for Super Bowl XLIII as well as the 2008 NFL season is "Believe In Now".[3]
The NFL will salute four decades of champions during the coin toss ceremony and the Vince Lombardi Trophy presentation. The coin toss will feature Roger Craig (Super Bowl XXIII, 1989), John Elway (Super Bowl XXXIII, 1999) and Lynn Swann (Super Bowl XIII, 1979). Roger Craig follows last year's participants and fellow 49ers Craig Walsh (son of Bill Walsh), Ronnie Lott, Jerry Rice and Steve Young. Joe Namath (Super Bowl III, 1969) will participate in the Vince Lombardi Trophy presentation and he previously participated in the coin toss in Super Bowl XXVIII.
