    From Sports Illustrated:

    The most improbable start to a Super Bowl may have occurred two years ago, when on the first play from scrimmage, Broncos center Manny Ramirez snapped the ball over quarterback Peyton Manning’s right shoulder and out of the end zone for a Seahawks safety. The play underscored the raucous noise at MetLife Stadium and a lack of preparedness in Denver’s offense, and it sounded the tocsin for a 43–8 rout by underdog Seattle. In Las Vegas, that safety did something else.

    My favorite was XLI, back in 2007. I remember at the opening game telling my girlfriend at the time, "Watch this. Devin Hester is going to return the kickoff for a touchdown. That's what he does."

    And he did.
