CBS broadcast crew on Super Bowl LVIII, Taylor Swift and Las Vegas: ‘There is nothing that’s bigger’

New York Times  

The Chiefs beat the 49ers in overtime to win Super Bowl LVIII. During the CBS broadcast of the Christmas Day game between the Las Vegas Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs, producer Jim Rikhoff had some fun with his announcers by using computer-generated imagery to place Jim Nantz, Tony Romo and Tracy Wolfson on a Caesars Palace-esque outdoor marquee with the words, “FEATURING THE CBS SPORTS RAT PACK SUPER BOWL LVIII.” “I made some crack like, ‘Hey, The Rat Pack will be there on Feb. 11 to call the game,'” said Nantz. Nantz: The first time it left my lips I thought, “Oh man, somebody’s going to say that’s a bunch of hyperbole,” but I stand by it. Romo: Like Jim said, for all the sporting events they have had there, to be part of what may be the biggest event they’ve ever had is a really special moment for us. What kind of gambler is he?” “Nothing is going to be bigger than a Super Bowl in Las Vegas,” Tracy Wolfson says of next Sunday’s game.
