Where was the coldest Super Bowl?
- Super Bowl LII (2018) was the coldest Super Bowl day on record. Held in Minneapolis, the high temperature of 9掳F was just after midnight on game day, and despite plenty of sunshine leading up to the game, the temperature outside at kickoff was 2掳F with a wind chill of -14掳F. Of course, the Philadelphia Eagles played the New England Patriots indoors. With such frightful weather outside, the cozy U.S. Bank Stadium was more crowded than your average Super Bowl several hours before kickoff.
- The 2014 Super Bowl XLVIII was the only one held in a 鈥渃old weather鈥 city without a domed stadium. That Super Bowl was held at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on February 2, 2014, and, although the weather was mild for that location with a game-time temperature of 49掳F, 8 inches of snow fell the very next day. It had been in the previous year鈥檚 Super Bowl that the environment most affected the game, as a power blackout in the third quarter delayed the contest for 34 minutes.
Where was the warmest Super Bowl?
蜜桃恋人-wise, the 鈥渉ottest鈥 game was played on February 13, 2022, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. At kickoff, the temperature was 82掳F, with a high of 85掳F and low of 60掳F throughout the game, making it the warmest Super Bowl ever played.
Previously, that record had been held by the 1973 game in Los Angeles, California, during which the kick-off temperature was 84掳F. However, the average temperature throughout the game was lower than that of the 2022 Super Bowl. Will this year鈥檚 game in Nevada break that record?

We live on an Island. Back in the early 80s, my son played hockey on a Pee-Wee AAA hockey team, On many occasions we traveled throughout the Maritime provinces for a variety of hockey tournaments.
I began this note by telling you we live on an Island and back then the only ground transportation off the Island was by car ferry. The mainland has since been connected to our Island by a 13 kms bridge.
On one February Friday, a number of families began our trek to a hockey tournament in Nova Scotia. As I recall, each car making the journey, had 2 or 3 hockey players or hockey Moms in each vehicle. We left Charlottetown early on a bright sunny (albeit cold) winter morning. The ferry terminal is about 45 kms (or 35 mins) away. About 1/2 way to our desintation, snowflakes became visible and within minutes, the wind was howling, the drifting snow was blinding and large snowdrifts were building in places in the snow!
I had 2 of the hockey players and their Moms along with me. We sojourned on through the blinding snow and wind toward the ferry terminal. All the while praying for the car to stay it's course and keep between the ditches.
We eventually arrived at the ferry terminal, along with the other hockey travelers and all agreed it was certainly a precarious drive. Only minutes after our arrival at the ferry terminal (which did have a small cafeteria and bathrooms) an announcement came over the PA system that "due to weather conditions, ferry service was suspended until the weather improved". IT STORMED ALL DAY, ALL NIGHT, AND DID NOT STOP SNOWING UNTIL MID-AFTERNOON ON THE DAY AFTER OUR DEPARTURE!
We were stranded (PE Islanders call it storm-stayed) for almost 2 days with a group of 10 to 12 year old boys and their families. Thankfully, there was a liquor store directly across the street from the ferry terminal and one of the Dad's made a courageous run in the middle of the storm for some life-saving refreshments which came in handy when the cafeteria ran out of food!
Finally after about 32 hours, the snowplows broke through the snow drifts and opened the road back toward Charlottetown and home. Lest to say ...... the boys never got to play in that hockey tournament! 蜜桃恋人 certainly impacted that sporting event.
Thank you for sharing this well-written story.
