Super Bowl XLI Official Game Program

Note: Starting with XXI, programs were available from outlets other than the stadium on game day. As a result, programs from XXI on up can be found either with or without a UPC barcode on the cover. For Super Bowl XLI, the barcode version has a dark blue cover, while the clean version sold at the game has a light blue cover, with the game logo where the barcode is on the other version. There is also a shiny special edition with team logos.
