>> Ted: NEXT ON "ARIZONA HORIZON," THE ALLOTMENT OF THE COLORADO RIVER WATER AND TRACKING WATER IN SUERS CAN HELP WITH SAFETY EFFORTS.

A LONG WEEK AT THE SUPER BOWL AND A LOOK BACK AT THE HISTORY OF THE GAME IN ARIZONA.

GOOD EVENING AND WELCOME TO "ARIZONA HORIZON."

I'M TED SIMONS.

ARIZONA'S SPENDING LIMIT WAS TO BE ADDRESSED, THE SENATE'S NEXT SCHEDULED VOTE WAS DELAYED DUE TO TOMORROW.

THE BILL ALLOWS SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO SPEND THE $1.4 BILLION THEY'VE RECEIVED AND NOT AS OF YET TO USE.

IN THE LIMIT IS NOT RAISED BY MARCH 1st, THEY WILL HAVE TO CLOSE THEIR BUDGET BY 17%.

>>> RESCUE OPERATIONS IN TURKEY AND SYRIA WITH THE EARTHQUAKE.

THE QUAKE REGISTERED 7.8 ON THE RICKETIER SCALE.

>> THERE'S IS NO INCALLY INCLINATION OF PUTTING PEOPLE FIRST AND NOW THAT THE PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING MORE, WE'LL DO WHAT HAS PROVEN EFFECTIVE OVER THE COURSE OF THE PAST DOZEN YEARS OR SO, PROVIDING SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE TO PARTNERS ON THE GROUND AND THESE PARTNERS WHO UNLIKE THE SYRIAN REGIME ARE THERE TO HELP THEM.

>> Ted: THERE IS SIGNIFICANT CONCERN THAT THE EARTHQUAKE WILL RESULT IN AN HUMANITARIAN DISASTER IN AN AREA THAT HAS SEEN A CIVIL WAR AND REFUGEE CRISIS ALONG WITH ECONOMIC TUR TURMOIL.

>>> WOMEN WHO LIVE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE REDUCE A RISK OF LONG COVID.

RERS LOOKED ATRESEARCHERS LOOKED AT NEVER SMOKES, MODERATE ALCOHOL, A HEALTHY DIET AND SEVEN HOURS OF SLEEP.

THOSE WHO MET FIVE OF THE SIX CRITERIA HAD ALMOST HALF THE RISK OF DEVELOPING LONG-TERM COVID.

>>> THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS MANDATED THAT THE SEVEN LOWER BASIN STATES USING COLORADO RIVER WATER COME UP WITH A PLAN TO SUSTAIN LAKE'S POWELL AND MEAD.

THEY SAID YOU COME UP WITH A PLAN OR WE'LL DO IT FOR YOU.

SIX OF THE SEVEN WORKED UP A PROPOSAL BEFORE THE DEADLINE AND CALIFORNIA REFUSED AND DECIDED, INSTEAD, TO COME WITH ITS OWN PLAN.

WE WELCOME TOM BUSCHAZKE, THE DIRECTOR OF THE DEPARTMENT OF WATER RESOURCES.

>> GOOD TO SEE YOU.

>> Ted: WHAT TO YOU MAKE OF WHAT CALIFORNIA IS DOING?

>> I THINK WHAT CALIFORNIA PROPOSED IS LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IN TERMS OF THE VOLUMES OF WATER THAT THEY HAVE PROPOSING TO CUT, IN TEMS OF THE IN TERMS OF CERTAINTY, A LOT OF THE PLAN IS VOLUNTEERTY AND PUSHES IT ONTO THE BURDEN OF ARIZONA.

>> Ted: THE IDEA THAT CALIFORNIA SUBMITS ITS OWN PLAN, HOW WOULD THE BUREAU OF RECLAMATION AND FEDS LOOK AT THAT?

>> THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CAN FILL -- LOOK AT CALIFORNIA'S PLAN AND LOOK AT OUR PLAN, THEY CAN DETERMINE HOW WELL THEY PERFORM AND THEY CAN LOOK AT THE IMPACTS THAT THEY'RE REQUIRED TO LOOK AT IN THEIR ENVIRONMENTAL PROCESS AND THEY CAN LOOK AT ALL OF THAT AND POTENTIALLY, THEY CAN DO THEIR OWN ALTERNATIVE, THEIR OWN PLAN, WHICH WE EXPECT THEY WILL DO.

BUT WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT ELEMENTS WILL BE IN THAT PLAN.

>> Ted: WAS CALIFORNIA'S ACTION HERE ABC IT A WASWANT HERE, WAS THAT A SURPRISE?

>> IT WASN'T A SURPRISE BECAUSE THEY TRIED TO PUT TOGETHER A PLAN BY AUGUST.

WE STRUGGLED IT IN THE FALL AND LEADING TO CALIFORNIA'S PROPOSAL VERSUS THE SIX-STATE PROPOSAL AROUND THE END OF JANUARY.

>> Ted: SENATOR'S SINEMA AND KELLY ARE NOT DOING ENOUGH TO CONSERVE AND TO THEY HAVE A POINT?

>> THEY ABSOLUTELY HAVE A POINT BECAUSE BY THE END OF 2023, ARIZONA WILL HAVE KEPT A MILLION AND A HALF ACRE FEET IN LAKE MEAD WITH CALIFORNIA ONLY DOING A FEW HUNDRED THOUSAND ACRE FEET.

>> Ted: WHY WOULD THEY THINK THAT IS SOMETHING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, THE SIX OTHER STATES, WHY WOULD THEY THINK THAT IS SOMETHING EVERYBODY WILL GET ALONG WITH?

>> THEY'RE HANGING THEIR HAT ON LEGAL PRIORITIES GOING BACK MANY DECADES AND WE THINK THERE ARE DIFFERENT ENTERRATIONS INTERPRETATIONS AND THEY HAVEN'T HAD TO DO A LOT AND HONESTLY FOR 50 YEARS, THEY WERE THINKING THE LEGAL PRIORITY IS ON THEIR SIDE.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT SHORT-TERM DROUGHT BUT CLIMATE CHANGE AND A LONG-TERM CHANGE IN HOW THE COLORADO RIVER WILL FLOW IN THE FUTURE.

THIS IS THE PRIOR SITUATION IN 1968 TO GET THE ARIZONA ACT INTO CONGRESS TO SEE TO PROTECT OR ACCEPT A JUNIOR PRIORITY AT THE SAME TIME, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WAS SUPPOSED TO AUGMENT THE FLOW OF THE RIVER BY 1.5 MILLION-ACRE FEET, SOMETHING THAT NEVER HAPPENED.

THERE ARE EQUITIES IN TERMS OF WHAT WE AGREED TO AND WHAT'S NOT HAPPENING OR HAPPENING NOW.

>> Ted: WHAT DOES THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WANT TO SEE HAPPEN?

WHAT DO THEY WANT TO SEE FROM THESE PROPOSALS AND WHAT ARE THEY LIKELY TO SUBMIT AS PART OF THEIR PLAN IF WE CAN'T GET OUR ACTS TOGETHER?

>> FIRST AND FOREMOST, THEY WANT TO COME UP WITH A PROPOSAL TO AGREE TO AND THAT'S ROBUST TO PROTECT LAKE POWELL AND LAKE MEAD AND I THINK THEY UNDERSTAND IF THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN, TOLL HAVE, THEY'LLHAVE TO TAKE ACTION.

IT'S DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE WHAT DO BUT TOUGH ISSUES FACING THEM AND WILL THEY HAVE IT GOING TO ZERO AND THAT PROJECT WATER GOES TO CITIES AND TRIBES WHO WOULD BE DEVASTATED BY THAT OUTCOME.

>> Ted: HOW MUCH OF A POSSIBILITY IS THAT?

IS THAT A REALISTIC POSSIBILITY?

>> THAT IS A REALISTIC POSSIBILITY IF THERE IS A STRICT INTERPRETATION BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE JUNIOR PRIORITY SYSTEM, BUT ALSO AS A JUDGE, YES, THE PRIORITIES SHOULD BE ADMINISTERED THIS WAY.

IN A COURTROOM, LITIGATING, SOMEONE HAS TO PROTECT THE RIVER AND SO THE RIVER COULD GO DOWN THE TUBES AND LAKE MEA DID GO DOWN THE TUBES.

>> Ted: IS CALIFORNIA BANKING ON THE FACT THEY'VE HAD MASSIVE STORMS, WINTER STORMS THIS SEASON?

ONLY WE'VE HAD SOME IN ARIZONA AND ARE THEY THINKING THAT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

IF SO, HOW MUCH WILL IT MAKE?

>> THE WATER SUPPLY FROM THE STORMS IN CALIFORNIA DOESN'T GO INTO THE COLORADO RIVER.

IT MIGHT GIVE CALIFORNIA SOME OPPORTUNITY TO DO SOME VOLUNTARILY COMPENSATED CONSERVATION IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WITH THE RIVER WATER AND THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN.

>> Ted: WE MENTIONED SENATORS SINEMA AND KELLY AND CONGRESSMAN GOSAR SAYS WE CAN'T CONSERVE OUR WAY OUT AND THE ONLY SOLUTION IS NEW WATER.

HOW VIABLE IS THAT?

EVERYTHING FROM TRUCKING IT IN FROM THE NORTHWEST AND DESALINATION AND HOW REALISTIC IS THAT?

>> SO THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CONSERVATION AND THE REDUCTIONS WE HAVE TO TAKE TO PROTECT THE SYSTEM.

CONSERVATION IS KIND OF AN ETHIC IN WHICH YOU USE LESS WATER AND YOU GO FORWARD WITH SUBSTANTIAL WATER USE.

THE REDUCTIONS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ARE REALLY NOT CONSERVATION AND IF THE SHORT-TERM, I DON'T SEE ANY OTHER WAY OUT OF TAKING REDUCTIONS TO HAVE ECONOMIC CONSEQUENCES FOR EVERYONE IN THE COLORADO RIVER BASIN.

PRESIDENTLONG-TERM AUGMENTATION IS POSSIBLE.

WE HAVE RESOURCES RESOURCES TO DEPLOY AND THEY'LL SUBMIT THE STRUCTURE, BUT WE HAVE NEED AN ALL-HANDS ON DECK ATTITUDE AND WE NEED REDUCTIONS AND EVENTUALLY DO THE AUGMENTATION.

>> Ted: IMPACT OF THE $13 MILLION OF CENTRAL FUNDS.

>> THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO USE THE MONEY TO BUILD INFRASTRUCTURE, TO PUT TOGETHER PROGRAMS THAT WILL RESULT IN USE BY OUR TRIBES AND IF WE GET LONG-TERM, WE CAN LEAVE IT IN THE FUTURE AND IN THE SHORT-TERM, WE HAVE TO STABILIZE THE SYSTEM.

>> Ted: ARE YOU OPTIMISTIC ABOUT ALL OF THIS?

>> I AND OPTIMISTIC BECAUSE THAT'S MY JOB AND I'LL CONTINUE TALKING.

I HAVE HOPE THAT WE CAN COME TO THE MIDDLE AND MAYBE WE DON'T HAVE A COMPLETELY COLLABORATIVE PLAN, BUT MAYBE IT'S MORE COLLABORATIVE THAN WHAT WE SAW IN THE CALIFORNIA LETTER THAN THE SIX-STATE LETTER.

>> Ted: THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

UP NEXT ON ARIZONA, HOW STUDYING WASTE WATER CAN HELP RESEARCHERS LEARN ABOUT VIRUSES.

WASTE WATER BASED EMDEALOLOGY INVOLVES SCIENTISTS TO BETTER PREPARE FOR HEALTH ISSUES.

JOINING US NOW IS DR. DEVIN BOWES AND WELCOME TO "ARIZONA HORIZON."

>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

>> Ted: YOU BET.

GIVE ME A DEFINITION, WASTE WATER BASED EPIDEMIOLOGY.

WHAT IS THAT?

>> IN THE BASIC SENSE, IT APPLIES SIMILAR PRINCIPLES TO SEEK OUT CARE IF YOU FEEL SICK FROM A DOCK TO ASK FOR A BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE.

SO THEY UTILIZE THOSE IN ORDER TO ASSESS A PROBLEM AND IT TAKES THAT CONCEPT AND ULTIMATELY APPLIES IT TO AN ENTIRE POPULATION EXCEPT DOES NOT REQUIRE THE INHABITANTS OF THE COMMUNITY TO PUT ASIDE THE LIVES IN ORDER TO OBTAIN INFORMATION, NOR REQUIRING ANYONE TO HAVE ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE TO BE SUCCESSFUL.

IT'S ANONYMOUS, INCLUSIVE IN A NONINVASIVE WAY BY ANALYZING COMMUNITY WASTE WATER.

>> Ted: IT SOUNDS LIKE REAL-TIME, REAL INFORMATION.

I MEAN, NO FOOLIN' AROUND, REAL-TIME LIVING.

THIS IS THE REAL DEAL, HUH?

>> YEAH.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT AND ULTIMATELY DEDICATING MY CAREER TO IMPLEMENTING THIS SCIENCE IN DIFFERENT WAYS FOR THE SAKE OF PUBLIC HEALTH.

>> Ted: THE GOAL IS TO WHAT, IMPROVE HEALTH, SAFETY INTERVENTIONS TO SEE WHERE THINGS ARE TRACKING, FORECASTING, THESE SORTS OF THINGS?

>> WE.

YES.

ESSENTIALLY ALL OF THE ABOVE.

IT FILLS IN GAP GAPS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN MISSED TO REALLY KNOW THE NATURE OF CLINICAL INVESTIGATIONS AND SOMETIMES WE CAN MISS OUT ON A FEW OPPORTUNITIES THERE, SO IT FILLS IN GAPS, INFORMING INTERVENTIONS AND ALLOWING US TO MAKE NEAR REAL-TIME DECISIONS.

>> Ted: TALK TO US ABOUT THE HISTORY AND BEGIN IN 2018 AND TRACKING OPIOID USE, IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN.

>> I WOULD BE REMISS NOT TO MENTION NONE OF THIS WOULD WORK IF WE DIDN'T HAVE THE RELATIONSHIP WITH TEMPE.

WE CALL THIS NEIGHBORHOOD LEVEL OR CATCHMAN LEVEL AND SO, HERE, ULTIMATELY, OUR GOALS WERE TO REDUCE, MINIMIZE AND HOPEFULLY ERADICATE OPIOID USE OR OVERUSE THROUGHOUT THE CITY BY UTILIZING THE INFORMATION THAT WE LEARN FROM WASTE WATER TO UNDERSTAND WHERE WE CAN BEST PLACE OR EFFORTS IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THOSE GOALS.

>> Ted: HOW DID COVID ACCELERATE ALL OF THIS?

>> SO, OF COURSE, 2020 CAME ALONG AND COVID-19 WITH IT AND WE DECIDED THAT MONITORING FOR SARS COV2 WAS SOMETHING TO DO.

WE WERE ABLE TO STAND UP A COVID-19 DASHBOARD AND IT MIMICKED WHAT WE HAD FOR OPIOID MONITORING AND AN INFORMED VIRUS LEVELS IN THE NAME LEVEL IN REAL-TIME.

>> Ted: YOU ARE TALKING ZIP CODES AND FINE TUNING THIS, AREN'T YOU?

>> YES.

SO IT'S SUBZIP CODES AND SO THE LEVEL OF RESOLUTION WAS WITHIN CERTAIN ZIP CODES WITHIN THE CITY.

>> Ted: HEALTH WITH HOSPITAL ADVANCED WARNINGS, TOO, I WOULD IMAGINE?

>> WE WERE ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE ABOUT A TWO-WEEK HEADS-UP OR WARNING FOR HOSPITALIZATIONS AND THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, TWO WEEKS AN BE QUITE A BIT OF TIME TO PROVIDE AMPLE AMOUNT OF TIME IN ORDER TO BEST STRATEGIZE AND, AGAIN, KNOWING WHERE TO BEST PLACE EFFORTS TO REDUCE RESOURCE EXHAUSTION.

>> Ted: THAT'S INTERESTING AND AN ADVANCED WARNING SYSTEMS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT?

>> YES, EXACTLY, TED.

>> Ted: IS THIS NOW USED AS A BEST PRACTICE IN OTHER AREAS AND WAS THIS A BEST PRACTICE ADOPTED FROM OTHER AREAS?

>> YES.

FOR A LONG TIME, THIS WAS IMPLEMENTED ACROSS THE GLOBE AND FOR DRUG MONITORING AND NOW WITH COVID-19, A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE CAUGHT ON, WHICH IS FANTASTIC AND IT ALLOWS US TO LEARN MORE ABOUT ESSENTIALLY THE LIMITS AND THE BOUNDS OF WHAT WE'RE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH WITH THIS TYPE OF METHODOLOGY AND REALLY GET AN UNDERSTANDING OR HOW WE CAN BEST SUPPORT PUBLIC HEALTH INTERVENTION STRATEGIES AND IMPLEMENTATION SCIENCE.

>> Ted: HOW LONG DOES THIS RESEARCH GO ON AND THE WASTE STUDY GO ON?

>> SO THE STUDY THAT CAME OUT OF OUR LAB ONLY REPORTED A YEAR AND WE ARE STILL MONITORING AND I KNOW MANY, MANY GROUPS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES, THROUGHOUT THE WORLD ARE STILL TRYING TO GET AN UNDERSTANDING, AGAIN, OF WHAT WE CAN AND CANNOT ACCOMPLISH.

SO I SEE THIS AS AN INEVITABLE CONTINUANCE OF PERFORMING THIS WORK.

>> Ted: WE FEEL YOUR ENTHUSIASM AND CONGRATULATIONS ON ALL OF THIS.

DR. DEVIN BOWES TO TALK ABOUT THIS WASTE WATER STUDY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

WE APPRECIATE IT.

>> THANK YOU.

HAVE A GREAT ONE.

>> Ted: SUPER BOWL LVII FLAKE IN GLENDALE AS THE CHIEFS TAKESES ON THE EAGLES.

WE TALKED ABOUT THIS WITH OUR SPORT'S COLUMNIST, KENT SUMMERS AND THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

GOOD TO HAVE YOU HERE AND THIS IS FOUR FOURTH SUPER BOWL AND WHY IS NFL SO ATTRACTED FOR THE BIG GAME?

>> THE OBVIOUS, THE WEATHER AND IT'S UNBELIEVABLE AND FOR A LONG TIME, IT WAS THE ONLY VENUE OUT WEST THAT COULD ACCOMMODATE A SUPER BOWL AND THEY LIKED TO MOVE IT AROUND A LITTLE BIT.

WHEN IT STARTED, IT WAS THE BIDWELL FAMILY, THE OWNER OF THE CARDINALS AND EVERYBODY CALLED HIM A LEAGUE MAN AND ALWAYS WENT ALONG WITH WHAT THE LEAGUE WANTED AND OTHER OWNERS RESPECTED THAT AND AS SOON AS THE OWNERS CAME HERE IN 1988, I THINK THEY WERE PROMISING BILL THE SUPER BOWL.

>> Ted: EXPECTING A BIG, SHINY IN SUPER BOWL.

>> NOT WRITTEN DOWN, BUT WE'LL GET YOU A NEW STADIUM IN DOWNTOWN PHOENIX AND THEY PLAYED IN THE SUN DEVIL STADIUM FOR 18 YEARS, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

>> Ted: YES.

>> SO, IT WAS A LONG, LONG WAIT AND UNDER HIS SON WAS THE EMME TUS.

THEIMPETUS.

>> Ted: IT COALESCED AND PUSHED US TO THE FIRST SUPER BOWL AND LET'S TALK ABOUT THE FIRST SUPER BOWL BECAUSE WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GET THAT, I THINK, IN '93, CORRECT.

>> CORRECT.

>> Ted: BUT SOMETHING HAPPENED IN '87 THAT PUT THE KEY KIBOSH ON IT.

>> IT WAS RESCINDED BY THE GOVERNOR AT THE TIME AND A COUPLE OF VOTES IN LEGISLATURE WENT DOWN TO ESTABLISH THAT HOLIDAY AND THE NFL HAD IT ESTABLISHED HERE.

EVEN WHEN THEY GRANTED THAT SUPER BOWL, IT CAME WITH THE ASTERISK IF YOU HAVE A MARTIN LUTHER KIND DAY.

>> Ted: THIS WAS A VOTE AND THE NFL GOT INVOLVED IN THE VOTE FOR THE MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY AND GUMBLE SAYS IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE HOLIDAY, YOU DON'T HAVE THE DAY AND THAT HELPED TO SWING THIS AND PEOPLE SAID, DON'T TELL US WHAT TO DO.

>> THERE WAS THAT SENTIMENT AS I TRY TO REMEMBER THOSE DAYS AND IT WASN'T JUST THE SUPER BOWL BUT THE FIESTA BOWL HAD A PROBLEM GETTING TEAMS.

THERE THERE WAS ALL THIS PRESSURE TO BEAR ON ARIZONA TO GET AN MLK HOLIDAY AND THE NFL WAS UNDER PRESSURE BECAUSE NUMBER ONE, IT'S A MONEY-MAKING VENTURE AND IT'S BAD FOR THEIR BRAND AND NUMBER TWO, 60% TO 70% OF THE PLAYERS ARE AFRICAN-AMERICAN AND IT'S HARD TO PUT A SUPER BOWL IN A PLACE LIKE ARIZONA THAT DOESN'T HAVE MLK DAY JUSTIFY.

>> Ted: THE FIRST MAJOR DECISION WITH PAUL TAGLEY, TO TAKE IT AWAY.

DO YOU REMEMBER THAT TAKEN AWAY FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES TAKEN AWAY?

>> THAT'S THE FIRST I REMEMBER AND IT WASN'T JUST SUPER BOWL.

I MEAN THE FIESTA BOWL WAS IN A PANIC.

THEY WERE TROUBLE GETTING MATCHUPS AND PEOPLE SAY, YOU KNOW, LOSING THAT SUPER BOWL AND OTHER THINGS COST THE STATE 200 TO $500 MILLION, ESTIMATE.

>> Ted: BUT THE NFL ALSO, BY WAY OF THE SUPER BOWL HELPED -- AND WE'VE TALKED TO FOLKS IN THE DAYS AND WITHOUT THAT, IT MAY NOT HAVE PASSED, BUT IT DID PASS WITH THE HELP OF THE IDEA YOU'LL GET A SUPER BOWL ONCE IT PASSES.

>> AND IT HELPED THEY CONSOLIDATED THE PRESIDENT'S DAY AND, YOU KNOW, THEY WEREN'T GIVING PEOPLE AN EXTRA DAY AND I MEAN, IT HAD TO BE DONE AND SOMETHING HAD TO FORCE THE PUBLIC TO PASS SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND THANK GOODNESS THEY DID.

>> Ted: IT'S PASSED AND ARIZONA GETS THE GAME IN 1996 AT A COLLEGE STADIUM.

AND I WAS THERE, YOU WERE THERE.

>> YEAH.

>> Ted: REMEMBER THE HELICOPTER CAME IN WITH DIANA ROSS AT HALF-TIME?

>> IS THIS SAFE?

[ Laughter ] >> Ted: BUT THE GAME ITSELF WAS KIND OF -- >> IT WAS A TERRIBLE GAME.

THE STEELERS AGAINST DALLAS AND DALLAS WON BECAUSE THE STEELER'S QUARTERBACK THREW THE GAME TO THE DEFENSIVE BACK TWICE, LARRY BROWN AND THE NEXT DAY, ALL YOU DID WAS CATCH THE BALL AND THROWN RIGHT TOW.

IT WASTO YOU.

>> Ted: IT PROVED TO THE NFL, THE LAST ONE UNLESS YOU GET A NEW STADIUM BECAUSE THAT STADIUM DID NOT GET HIGH MASHES.

HIGH MARK.

>> LIKE A LOT OF COLLEGE STADIUMS, NEEDED RENOVATIONS AND NO SEAT BACKS AND ANTIQUATED AND ALL OF THOSE THINGS.

AFTER THAT, YOU KNOW, THE SUPER BOWL STARTED TO GO MORE AND MORE TOWARDS OWNER WHO BUILD AREAS THAT BUILT NEW STADIUMS.

BUILD THIS AND WE'VE SEEN SINCE WITH SUPER BOWLS IN MINNESOTA AND SUPER BOWLS IN NEW YORK CITY WHERE THE WEATHER WAS TERRIBLE AND THAT STADIUM WHERE IT'S 17 YEARS OLD, ARIZONA IS THERE FOR FUTURE GAMES.

>> Ted: 2008 AND 2015, THE CATCH OF THE HAT.

>> DAVID TYREE AND ELI MANNING THROWS IN THE BALL AND PINS IT AGAINST HIS HELMET AND GO TO SCORE THE GAME AND 2015, WE'RE ALL WATCHING WHAT WE THINK IS A ASSESSMENT-WINNINGSEATTLE-WINNING DRIVE AND THE MOST PHYSICAL RUSHER IN THE LEAGUE WITH LYNCH AND THEY THROW THE BALL AND WE'RE IN THE PRESS BOX AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

IT WAS INCREDIBLE TO THINK OF THEN IN THE MOMENT AND MORE SO NOW.

>> Ted: THAT WAS STILL RANKED AS THE MOST WATCHED, I BELIEVE, TELEVISION PROGRAM IN U.S. TELEVISION HISTORY.

AND BY THE END OF THE GAME, 21 MILLION PEOPLE WATCHING THAT RIDICULOUS DECISION ON THAT LAST PLAY.

THEY ARE MEMORABLE GAMES HERE AND WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

WHEN YOU MENTIONED, YOU GET A NEW STADIUM.

ARE WE GOING TO STAY IN THE CIRCUIT?

WE HAVE LOS ANGELOS, VEGAS, TEXAS IS ALWAYS THERE WITH JERRY'S WORLD.

I MEAN, THEY KEEP BUILDING THEM BIGGER AND BETTER.

>> I DON'T THINK WE'LL SEE THEM EVERY SEVEN OR EIGHT YEARS WHICH IS THE CASE WITH THE LAST TWO.

LOS ANGELOS HOSTED LAST YEAR AND LAS VEGAS IS NEXT YEAR.

THE NFL WILL COME BACK TO THOSE PLACES.

STATE FARM STADIUM IS 16 YEARS OLD AND IT'S NOT A YOUNG VENUE ANYMORE.

THEY'LL TELL YOU IT WAS DESIGNED TO EVOLVE AND WE'VE SPENT 150, 200$200 MILLION TO INSTALL NEW SOUND AND THE FACT IS, THERE ARE NEWER VENUES AND NEW STADIUMS IN THE NFL AND OTHER PLACES AND TENNESSEE, FOR INSTANCE AND I THINK THEY'VE OK'D A NEW STADIUM AND I WOULD THINK IT WILL BE IN NASHVILLE.

>> Ted: QUICKLY, YOUR FAVORITE MOMENT OF ALL OF THE SUPER BOWLS PLAYED HERE AND WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER?

>> PLAYED HERE?

I THINK THE DAVID TYREE CATCH.

HE WASN'T A BIG NAME AND NEVER WENT ONTO DO MUCH.

GREAT GUY BUT TO MAKE A PLAY AND IT WAS AGAINST THE EVIL, UNDEFEATED PATRIOTS.

SO THAT WAS A HUGE UPSET AND A NICE GUY LIKE ELI MANNING WINS IT AND THE GIANTS WIN IT AND NOT HANDING THE BALL TO LYNCH AND I DON'T KNOW, HARD TO CHOOSE.

>> Ted: GOOD TO SEE YOU.

>> THANKS, TED.

>> Ted: AND THAT IS IT FOR NOW AND I'M TED SIMONS AND THANKS FOR JOINING US AND YOU HAVE A GREAT EVENING!
