I was born for this Super Bowl, although still a baby and so obviously too young to remember any of it. So here are some of the major events that took place in 1976, the year this Super Bowl was played. The world's population was 4.158 billion people. Pol Pot became Prime Minister and de facto dictator of Cambodia, and the Holocaust there was well underway as a result. Israeli military commandos attack Uganda's Entebbe Airport, where Palestinians had hijacked an Air France flight. Civil War in Lebanon ended, although it had threatened to escalate into a much bigger war involving other nations.
