The Baltimore Ravens defeated the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XLVII by the final score of 34-31, winning their second-ever championship. Former Baltimore wide receiver Anquan Boldin played a big part in the team’s playoff run that season, putting together a historic stretch alongside former Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco.
Super Bowl XLVII will be remembered for many things, with possibly the most notable being the lights going out at the stadium in New Orleans in the middle of the game. Boldin spoke to Locked On Ravens from the Courtyard Marriott’s “Ultimate Baltimore Ravens Fan Room” about the outage, saying that it was something unexpected that the team had to fight through to finish the game and come out on top.
