How many times has a host city team played in the Super Bowl?
To date it has happened four times, and three times in the state of California.
In 1980, the Los Angeles Rams played Super Bowl 14 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California. They lost 31-19 to the Steelers. It wasn’t technically a home game, however, as the Rams were playing at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
In 1985, the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Miami Dolphins 38-16 in Super Bowl 19, the game taking place in Stanford, California. That wasn’t technically a home game either, as the Niners’ games were happening just around the corner at Candle Park.
In 2021, Tom Brady and the Buccaneers won the first true home Super Bowl game at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. They defeated Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs 31-9.
Most recently, the Los Angeles Rams – back in LA after a 20-year stint in St. Louis – won Super Bowl 56 in a home game at SoFi Stadium, beating the Bengals 23-20. After more than 50 years without a team playing a Super Bowl at their home stadium, it has happened in back-to-back seasons.
