The Night That The Lights Went Out in the Superdome

  • What did you think of todays' episode?

    On this week's episode of But Have You Heard About Conspiracy Theory Edition, Matt and I discuss how the power outage that delayed Super Bowl XLVII (47) wasn’t an accident, but an intentional way to inject life into a game that was turning into a blowout.

    Super Bowl XLVII was played between the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers on February 3, 2012. The Ravens defeated the 49ers by the score of 34–31, handing the 49ers their first Super Bowl loss in their franchise history. The game was played at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans. Baltimore had been dominating the first half of the game, thanks to Joe Flacco's three touchdown passes that gave the Ravens a 21-6 lead going into the half. After Beyonce performed her amazing heart out during halftime, the Ravens immediately picked back up their all gas no breaks approach that would give them a 28–6 lead.

    However, a partial power outage occurred with 13:22 remaining in the third quarter. Play was interrupted for 34 minutes because of a 22-minute partial power outage. After this outage, the 49ers came back and RALLIED to make the game a close finish. Listen in to all of the theories as to why this may have been more than an accident.... though most likely it was an accident, let's be real.
