Kezar stadium, per se, does not really exist. The field is still there...but the stadium....except for a single gateway entrance arch is gone. The field has a track around it, and is probably used for soccer, and with some smaller stands which seem to be about as many seats as a high school stadium.

Those first two were Super Bowl Stadiums....they did not host pre Super Bowl championships. The Chargers played their AFL title games at Balboa Stadium aka Jepsen Park. The Saints never existed before there was a Super Bowl...so they never hosted any title games there between 1933 and 1966.

2. No team has ever won 3 Super Bowls in a row. The best that has ever been done in that regard is that a couple of teams have won 3 out of 4. Name these teams...including their era.
3. Name those teams that have appeared in 3 straight Super Bowls. Win or lose.
4. How many of the current 32 NFL teams have never won a Super Bowl. A number will suffice, but if you wish to name them you may.

The LA Memorial Coliseum.
Bonus: Of all the stadiums in which an NFL or AFL Championship game was held between the onset of Championship games in 1933, and the onset of the Super Bowl in 1966, only 4 of those stadiums are still in existence. (All others have been demolished). Two of those stadiums are also the answers to Q. 12. Name them...and the other two that still exist.
Wrigley Field....now used exclusively by the Cubs. The LA Coliseum....now being reused by the Rams temporarily. Lambeau Field Green Bay....which was built some time in the 50s (but obviously vastly refurbished), and Franklin Field in Philadelphia. One time home of the Eagles...it is now used by the University of Pennsylvania for their games.

Speaking of Stadiums used in movies: Franklin Field was used in Unbreakable....it is where Bruce Willis's character worked security.

That one was tricky, I thought Soldier not Wrigley, I thought Philadelphia but wasn't sure, Lambeau never crossed my mind.....should have.
