Punt75 Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 For the Bills 2nd Super Bowl trip, to play the Redskins, "Mission Minneapolis" was the promo name used by all the local TV stations for their pre-game reports during the 2 weeks before the game. They were actually quite interesting as they visited bars, restaurants, long time Bills fans, original Bills from the 60's, screen print shops pumping out the hats, sweatshirts & tees with the Super Bowl / Bills logos and travel agencies booking game packages. Can anyone remember remember the promo names for the other THREE Super Bowl Games???
Fadingpain Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Mission Minneapolis quickly turned into the Minneapolis Massacre, unfortunately. I don't recall any other promo names for the Superbowls.
birdo67 Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Target Tampa for XXV, but I can't remember what they used for Atlanta for XXVIII.

YoloinOhio Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 I remember all of them! First one I thought of was Target Tampa

row_33 Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 all the excitement made Thurman do his showboat duckwalk and then lose his helmet for the first series.
Ned Flanders Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 I still have an unopened bottle of Project Pasadena champagne...almost opened it after the Bills clinched the playoff spot, but it remains stashed away for the big celebration (I just hope I'm still alive to see it)
Punt75 Posted January 29, 2018 Author Posted January 29, 2018 Touchdown in Tampa Mission Minneapolis Project Passedena Assignment Atlanta What wonderful days - - before the games were played!!!! GO BILLS!
birdo67 Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 I don't recall Touchdown in Tampa, and I remember seeing Target Tampa, so certain stations and channels must have used Touchdown as well. While Target fits better with the other 3 words, Touchdown is cooler.
