History...

The game was played at the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans, 

on February 3, 2002. Following the September 11 attacks earlier in 

the season, the NFL postponed a week of regular season games 

and moved the league's playoff schedule back. As a result, Super 

Bowl XXXVI was rescheduled from the original date of January 27 

to February 3, becoming the first Super Bowl played in February.


Initially, the original logo for Super Bowl XXXVI had a style that 

reflected the host city, and was distributed on some memorabilia 

items during 2001. However, after the 9/11 attacks, a new logo 

reflecting American pride was designed. It featured the shape of

the 48 contiguous states and the American flag colors of red, 

white, and blue.
