Richard Petty

Celebrating the 50th addition of the Super Bowl, CBS Sports recently sat down with "The King" Richard Petty to collect his experiences and insights of the history and tradition of the Super Bowl.

Petty was interviewed for the feature at the Petty Museum in Level Cross, N.C. that will also include other worldwide sports and entertainment celebrities. The feature is scheduled to run just before kick-off on CBS.

Although Petty will not be present to cheer on his home team, the Carolina Panthers, Petty and his former Crew Chief Dale Inman have attended a Super Bowl in California. Petty told CBS that he went to Super Bowl XIV at the Rose Bowl before a race.

Petty is anxious to watch Sunday's game and believes the Panthers will come back home as champions.

"As well as Cam and the team have been playing recently, they will be really tough to beat," said Petty.
