Anybody notice the Diet Coke commercial that the networks were showing during the Super Bowl? The theme music was the "it's one of a kind", and the footage showed clips of the Dolphins and 49ers throughout the season. Right after the game was over, I noticed on CBS that they showed a Diet Coke commercial mostly the same, except it had only 49ers clips! I guess they had two commercials, and were prepared for either outcome. Beth Mazur {ihnp4,ima,harpo}!inmet!mazur

Had Ali won they were going to close the show by playing Bob Dylan's song "Forever Young", but since he lost ABC played a Bob Seger tune, "The Famous Final Scene".
