Okay, so, I got curious about something the other day – when was the last time the Dallas Cowboys won a Super Bowl? I mean, they used to be such a powerhouse, right? So I decided to dig in and find out.
Started Simple
First, I just typed “last time dallas won a superbowl” into Google. You know, the usual. Lots of stuff popped up, but I wanted something quick and easy.
Found the Answer
- I saw this one snippet that seemed pretty straightforward: “The Dallas Cowboys handily defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers, 27 to 17, in Super Bowl XXX on January 28.”
- Boom, there it was! Super Bowl XXX. I vaguely remembered that one.
Putting the Pieces Together
So, Super Bowl XXX, huh? Now I needed to figure out what year that was. That snippet mentioned January 28, so I did some quick math in my head. Super Bowls are usually in late January or early February.
The Final Step
After doing some searching I figured out that Super Bowl XXX happened back in 1996. And if the snippet was right, and they beat the Steelers 27 to 17 on January 28.
So, yeah, last time they won it was against the Pittsburgh Steelers and that was a good game for Dallas fans for sure. I’m kinda amazed it’s been that long.
Anyway, that’s how I figured it out. Just a little bit of searching and some deductive reasoning. Pretty cool, huh?
