(KTLA) — Los Angeles and its surrounding cities have changed a lot since the area hosted the very first Super Bowl played back in 1967. The game has also evolved with new stadiums, new coaches and new rules.

In 2022, the recently completed So-Fi Stadium will host its first Super Bowl in Inglewood. But back in 1967, the arena standing right next door to So-Fi was just being completed.

Also in 1967, Long Beach welcomed a famous British ocean liner that has gone through many haunting changes over the years.

Here’s a side-by-side look at some photos from then and now.
