Interesting trivia, re: Carolina/Atlanta Super Bowls`

Maybe someone has already pointed these out in another thread.  If so, apologies for the duplication.

- As of Sunday, the Panthers (in 22 years of existence) and the Falcons (in 51 years of existence) will have each played in 2 Super Bowls.  And, in doing so, they will have played the same organizations in those Super Bowls (Denver and New England).

- In Super Bowl XXXIII, the Falcons lost to a Denver Broncos team led by a retiring Hall of Fame QB playing in his final game (Elway).  In Super Bowl 50, the Panthers lost to a Denver Broncos team led by a retiring Hall of Fame QB playing in his final game (Manning).

- In Super Bowl XXXVIII, the Panthers lost to a New England Patriots team with a reputation for cheating led by QB Tom Brady.  In Super Bowl LI, the Falcons will be playing a New England Patriots team with a reputation for cheating led by QB Tom Brady.  

This Sunday, will history yet again repeat itself?

Both team's games against the Patriots were / are in Houston also.

Here is another random fact. For the first Falcons Super bowl in 1999, I had a SB party at my house. Your cult leader, J Igo was there and was pulling for the Falcons and I believe at one point did the Dirty Bird dance. Started lightly snowing at halftime for just a few minutes and TW cable decided to go out and he took his Falcon fandom home. 

The End.

I feel dirty reading that.
