Super Bowl V, played on January 17, 1971, at the Orange Bowl in Miami, was one of the most chaotic and mistake-filled championship games in NFL history. It was the first Super Bowl played after the official merger of the NFL and AFL, with the Baltimore Colts representing the newly formed American Football Conference (AFC) and the Dallas Cowboys representing the National Football Conference (NFC). While the game was historically significant as the first “post-merger” Super Bowl, it is often remembered for its sloppy play, featuring a record 11 turnovers between the two teams.
