A dynastic clash was on tap, as the Steelers and Cowboys battled to become the first three-time Super Bowl winner and the team of the 1970s. Terry Bradshaw's four TD passes guided Pittsburgh to a 35-17 lead, but the indomitable Roger Staubach threw two TD passes to draw Dallas within four points with 22 seconds left. The Steelers, however, recovered an onside kick attempt to end the game. Dallas fans still mourn Jackie Smith's drop of a Staubach pass that would have tied the game 21-21.

I was at this game. A friend had an extra ticket after another buddy backed out. I was on an oil rig on thrusday in the middle of the gulf when the asked if I wanted to go....On Saturday we were in Miami. Great experience but sucked watching the game. It was in the old Orange Bowl and we were on one end about halfway up in the middle of a bunch of Steeler fans and my buddy was a drunken and loud Cowboy fan. Wondered if we would make it out alive.
