It’s too bad we didn’t have this photo in time to run it before the Super Bowl, but we thought it was cool enough to run it this week regardless. John Nolen of Lansdale dropped off this photo, that was taken by former Reporter photographer Ken Zepp in 1989.

The caption for this photo noted that “a group of men who preferred their names not be used — perhaps for obvious reasons — enjoy Sunday Super Bowl halftime in 3-D glasses provided as part of a Diet Coke promotion.”

According to Nolen, the 1989 Super Bowl party was held at Rod Rodger’s Barbershop in Lansdale and that some of the men shown include himself, Rod Rodger, Larry Funk, Joe Molinari, Jeff Morrow, Sonny Derscavage, Spencer Reynolds, Larry Morgan and Chas Zepp.Hey, with the popularity of 3-D today, this guys would fit right in.

And by the way, according to a clipping also dropped off, the San Francisco 49ers won the Super Bowl that year with a 20-16 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals.Joe Montana’s 10-yard touchdown pass to John Taylor with 34 seconds left provided the winning margin.
