St. Louis Rams Won Super Bowl
On January 30, 2000, St. Louis Rams won Super Bowl XXXIV. One of the most exciting Super Bowls ends with the Rams’ Mike Jones making a tackle as time ran out, allowing St. Louis to defeat the Tennessee Titans 23-16. The victory was the culmination of an exciting season that nobody predicted. It started with the rise of quarterback Kurt Warner, who earned the starting job after an injury and led the team to a record-setting season in which they earned the nickname “The Greatest Show on Turf.”
