Which year was the third Super Bowl held?

The third Super Bowl, also known as Super Bowl III, was held on January 12, 1969. It took place at the Miami Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida. The reason for the answer being 1969 is because the naming convention for Super Bowls is based on the year in which the games are played, rather than the calendar year when the regular football season takes place. Hence, even though the regular season for the 1968 NFL season happened in 1968, the Super Bowl game was played in 1969, making it Super Bowl III.
