On this day 46 years ago Rocky Bleier helped win the Steelers' third Super Bowl in franchise history with a win 35-31 victory over the Cowboys. This was the last Super Bowl played in the Orange Bowl in Miami.
My dad was a Steelers fan, so odds are I would have known a bit more about Rocky had my father been alive. But I bet he's glad I know about him now. Checking out his stats, I see now just how much the description on this card about Bleier rings true. Throughout his career Rocky accumulated over 5,000 yards from scrimmage and 25 total touchdowns.
A nice clean looking card for sure. A nice pocket of information and design.
Here is video of Rocky's catch. Definitely not an easy catch. Impressive!
The big movie out while the Steelers won this Super Bowl 46 years ago was Superman. Never actually saw this one.
