This month 38 years ago, the Chicago Bears team recorded a video, "The Super Bowl Shuffle." Though the Bears did go on to win that year's SB XX, the video was recorded almost two months before the game -- before they even knew they'd be in it, much less who'd they be playing.
Not all Bears players participated in the making of the video, though many big name players like RB Walter Payton, QB Jim McMahon, WR Willie Gault, LB Mike Singletary and DT William "Refrigerator' Perry did. The song was actually nominated for a Grammy for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. In the end, almost $300,000 in proceeds from the sale of the record and video were donated to local Chicago families in need.
