The Simpsons predicted the Super Bowl in the first episode of their 17th season called “Bonfire on Manatees.” This episode isn’t really about football, Homer gets in to trouble with a local mob after gambling on some football games and is forced to get out of it by allowing them to make an adult film in his house. Of course this upsets his wife Marge, who runs away, and Homer chases after here to get her back.
In it though, there is a game shown on television, the Denver Broncos versus the Seattle Seahawks. The score indicates that it was or will be a close game with the Broncos winning 19-14. If the Broncos win by that score-line it’d be pretty incredible and kind of creepy all at the same time.

The Simpsons also sang a Super Bowl theme song.
