==Ceremonies and entertainment== The Los Angeles Ramettes, majorettes who had performed at all [[1966 Los Angeles Rams season|Rams]] home games, entertained during pregame festivities and after each quarter. Also during the pregame, the [[University of Arizona]] [[University of Arizona#Marching band|marching band]] created a physical outline of the [[Contiguous United States|continental United States]] at the center of the field, with the famed [[Anaheim High School]] drill team placing banners of each NFL and AFL team at each team's geographical location. The postgame [[Vince Lombardi Trophy|trophy]] presentation ceremony was handled by CBS' [[Pat Summerall]] and NBC's [[George Ratterman]]. Summerall and Ratterman were forced to share a single microphone.<ref name=deninger /> ===Halftime show=== {{Infobox halftime show | SBNumeral = I | date = January 15, 1967 | location = [[Los Angeles]], [[California]] | venue = [[Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum]] | headliner = [[Al Hirt]], and marching bands from<br>the University of Arizona and Grambling College<!-- not GSU until 1974--><ref name=beschloss /> | producer = [[Tommy Walker (events director)|Tommy Walker]] | guests = Ana-Hi-Steppers | theme = | Last = | this = '''I'''<br/>(1967) | next = [[Super Bowl II#Ceremonies and entertainment|II]]<br/>(1968) }} The halftime show was produced by [[Tommy Walker (events director)|Tommy Walker]], and featured trumpeter [[Al Hirt]], the marching bands from the [[University of Arizona#Marching band|University of Arizona]] and [[GSU Tiger Marching Band|Grambling College]]<!-- not GSU until 1974-->, the Ana-Hi-Steppers (more information below), 300 pigeons, 10,000 balloons and a flying demonstration by the hydrogen-peroxide-propelled [[Bell Rocket Belt|Bell Rocket]] Air Men.<ref name=beschloss /><ref name="history.com"/><ref>{{cite web |last1=Alexander |first1=Jim |title=Alexander: L.A.

The team joined the two university marching bands to form an outline of a United States map. Their transportation to and from the game was by school bus. This team was chosen due to their connection to Tommy Walker, whose children attended Anaheim High School. He had seen the Ana-Hi-Steppers perform and chose them over nationally famous drill teams since he only had three weeks to cast and produce the show.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Plaschke |first=Bill |date=February 8, 2022 |title=Column: This Anaheim group stepped into history at the first Super Bowl halftime show |url=https://www.latimes.com/sports/rams/story/2022-02-08/nfl-anaheim-high-drill-team-super-bowl-i-halftime-performance |access-date=February 14, 2022 |website=Los Angeles Times |language=en-US |archive-date=February 14, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220214024722/https://www.latimes.com/sports/rams/story/2022-02-08/nfl-anaheim-high-drill-team-super-bowl-i-halftime-performance |url-status=live }}</ref>
